Dōgon, the eagerly awaited restaurant from renowned chef Kwame Onwuachi, is set to open at Salamander Washington DC on September 9, 2024. This collaboration reunites Onwuachi with Sheila Johnson, founder and CEO of Salamander Hotels & Resorts, the largest Black-owned luxury hotel collection in the U.S.
Inspired by Benjamin Banneker, the Black astronomer and cartographer who helped survey the original borders of the District of Columbia, Dōgon will feature a menu that blends flavors from Nigeria, Jamaica, Trinidad, and Creole cuisine—a tribute to Banneker’s African heritage.
Chef Onwuachi’s return to the DMV has generated significant excitement among food enthusiasts. Known for his vibrant Afro-Caribbean cuisine, Dōgon promises to deliver a unique and unforgettable dining experience.
The restaurant’s interior design will enhance this experience, offering a modern aesthetic infused with traditional African motifs, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
As Dōgon prepares to welcome guests, it is poised to become a culinary landmark in the nation’s capital, attracting both food lovers and locals with its innovative menu, talented chef, and stylish ambiance.
