Food & Drink
Experience Mauritius: a culinary journey through vibrant, diverse flavors.
Mauritian cuisine is a flavour-packed fusion of African, French, European, Chinese, and Indian influences. Imagine a meal that brings together the best from these diverse cultures—that's what you'll find in Mauritius.
Now, let's talk street food. Mauritius boasts some of the world's best, served up by local vendors. You must try dholl puri - a flatbread rolled up with pickles, chutney, a spread of yellow split peas, gateaux piment, and spicy fried pea cakes. It's a street food paradise!
The French had their time ruling Mauritius (1715-1810), and their culinary mark is still alive. Think coq au vin and civet de lievre—French delights that found a home in Mauritius. And cheers to the French for introducing top-notch wines. It is now a hit on the island. It's a day well spent with a glass of wine on one hand and the delicious street favourite snack on the other.
Then, do try napolitaines—shortbread cookies filled with jam for a sweet touch. They're a Mauritian specialty that will satisfy any sweet tooth.
