Sheila Johnson and Kwame Onwuachi celebrated the opening of Dōgon, a new Afro-Caribbean restaurant at Salamander Washington DC, which features a diverse menu inspired by Onwuachi’s background and is supported by Mayor Muriel Bowser, NBA players, and other chefs.

After a family member made a viral TikTok about the restaurant’s struggles, Keith Lee visited Dukem Ethiopian restaurant on U Street NW and crowned it “the best food we’ve had in D.C,” noting its “robust sauce” and “earthy taste” in food. Lee gifted $1000 worth of food for following customers, plus $500 in individual tips to the restaurant owners. (Courtesy photo)
