Born and raised in Senegal, internationally celebrated chef, author, and social activist Pierre Thiam is best recognized as being a champion and ambassador of West African ingredients. In addition to bringing fonio – a nutritionally dense and sustainable ancient West African grain – to the United States market, Thiam is the executive chef and co-founder of Teranga, a fast-casual restaurant in Harlem that features ingredients sourced directly from West African farmers. For one night only, Chef Thiam is bringing his soulful flavors to Platform for a fine dining experience that will transport diners to Senegal and beyond. With an entirely dairy-free menu, Chef Thiam celebrates the deeply personal traditions of his culture with his signature modern approach to West African cuisine.
