As every year during Ramadan, the Diops, Ndiaye families, and many others rush to Brioche Dorée bakeries to treat themselves to the precious baguette. During this time of fasting, the managers of these establishments rub their hands in glee at the crowds, while the customers swear by this warm, crispy bread to break their fast.

At the time of "Ndogou," neighborhood bakeries are abandoned in favor of Brioche Dorée kiosks. Neither the jostling nor the long lines discourage the fasters, determined to leave with their favorite baguette. Some, in a hurry to break the fast, don't hesitate to enjoy their bread on the spot, eager to savor this long-awaited moment.

At Sicap Liberté, for example, from 6 p.m., the atmosphere is electric in front of the Brioche Dorée bakery. Customers, lined up in single file, wait to get their hands on their daily treasure. This impressive crowd, which invades the points of sale throughout the holy month, testifies to the Senegalese love for bread, and even more so for Brioche Dorée, renowned for its quality and inimitable flavor.
