This video is part of a multi-part series of our ultimate ROAD TRIP THROUGH MAURITIUS! Mauritius is a popular honeymoon and beach holiday destination but it has so much more to offer than beautiful beaches (although there are many of them as well). We’re really excited to get to know this African island country and its culture and cuisine. On our road trip we’ll spend three weeks driving from the South up the West coast, then further into the North and finally down the East coast. Our goal is to get to know Mauritius from all sides, as well as check out its beautiful beaches and nature.

3 BEST Mauritian Street food to try in Port Louis
On our recent trip to Port Louis, Mauritius we spent some time at the central market. One of the best ways to experience a country and culture is through the food / street food. Mauritius has some amazing food, influenced by it’s Indian, Chinese and African cultures. The central market is one of the best places to experience the best Mauritian food.
The market has a massive selection of fruit and vegetables. Mauritius is a tropical island, so no surprise we ate litchi, pineapple and coconut. Some of the street food things that I really enjoy eating is Dhal Puri. Dhal Puri is a thin, flat bread that is filled with a savoury filling, rolled out flat, and then cooked on a hot stone. At 12 Rupees or 25 Euro Cents, this is a cheap, delicious snack. At the same stalls you can find chilli bites or Gateau Piment which are delicious chilli flavoured balls. For desert I like Napolitaine or Gateau Napolitaine which are little pink frosted buttery biscuit treats. Of course we also at at a number of restaurants where the best Mauritian food can be found, including Chicken and prawn curry, smoked marlin, wild boar stew and rougaille saucisse or sausage stew.

In order to experience the street food of Mauritius you should head towards the Port Louis Market. There is a variety of fresh produce and the not to be missed dal puri.

Mauritian Street Food: Discover a melting pot of flavours with Four Seasons Resort Mauritius
Mauritius is an island nestled in the heart of the Indian Ocean. Its street food draws inspiration from its vibrant cultural diversity (mainly from India, China, Africa, and Europe), and dishes are full of character and flavour. Elements and techniques from the blend of cuisines meld seamlessly to provide bursts of flavour that you can’t find anywhere else.
Often described as a cuisine that combines an abundance of colourful wonders, Mauritian cooking combines a number of different techniques; fried, grilled and steamed. It uses the glistening destination as an ongoing inspiration. The most common ingredients used in Mauritian cuisine are tomatoes, red onions, curry leaves, garlic, and chillies. Seafood such as fish and octopus are also staple ingredients served alongside Farata; a flatbread from India.
At Four Seasons Resort Mauritius at Anahita, the menus are curated to reflect the island’s eclectic identity. An array of creole dishes are available to sample at Bambou. Guests wishing to discover more about Mauritian cuisine can also partake in a private cooking class at the Resort, where our Chefs will share their inherited culinary secrets. There is nothing like wandering the streets of Mauritius on an adventure to try local gems that will leave a lingering umami taste and quench your thirst with a freshly cut coconut.

Pakistan Hotel in Desforges, Port Louis, Mauritius
Turns out Pakistan Hotel in Desforges Mauritius is not a hotel, but a great place to find food. As this is a place mostly for locals it was a bit of a learning curve for us, but everyone was helpful. Choose some gato and other fried goodies and a piece of bread. The helpful guy will cut the bread, add some butter and kraft cheese and you are almost good to go, don't forget the tea. Hot, milky, and strong, the tea is what it's all about.
We also tried a chili stuffed with chicken and deep-fried and a great chicken curry. The Pakistan Hotel is a must-visit in Port Louis to experience the real Mauritius.
