Le Chamarel – meal with a fantastic view
There’s no shortage of good restaurants in Chamarel, but despite all the other great restaurants, whenever Mr “C” and I go to this area we end up eating lunch at the same restaurant- Le Chamarel. Overall, Le Chamarel is still one of the best in my book after weighing all the factors, especially quality of food and service and affordability. As this weekend Mr C and I spent the weekend at Lakaz Chamarel http://mauritiusattractions.com/lakaz-chamarel-hotel-13.html , so before checking...
Al fresco at Le Fangourin-Great food & beautiful setting
Mauritius is an ideal place to enjoy Al Fresco dining (eating outside). The temperature is ideal throughout the year. On any non rainy day, there is nothing like enjoying a great meal sitting in a beautiful garden. This is exactly why when our internet crashed in our office and we learnt that the fixing will take quite a while, we decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather outside and headed for long lunch break with clear intentions to enjoy a good meal somewhere nice allowing us to enjoy...
La Terrasse- Sure-handed comfort food for a great value
I am sure Mauritius amazes many people because of its beautiful views and its cultural diversity; this colorful diversity is also expressed in the Mauritian kitchen. Each of the ethnic groups has a specialty of fine home food which is very tasty and offers true comfort. The famous Briani, Farata, rougaille and many other local dishes will undoubtedly ignite your eating desires even if you’re not hungry! That is exactly why when tourists visit Mauritius, they are eager to discover the Mauritian...
Safran Restaurant – The very best Mauritius has to offer
Mr. “C” and I stayed at the Le Touessrok Resort for the weekend, and we thought it is a great opportunity to dine at the Safran restaurant of which we heard so much about. The Safran restaurant unfolds around an open kitchen, with Tandoori ovens producing gentle aromas of the Indian cuisine. The restaurant design consist of open sides framed by chic wooden shutters which provide great sea views from the restaurant deck and at the same time welcome the refreshing sea breeze. Together...
Paparazzi – Traditional Italian Cuisine
Yesterday we went to Paparazzi for dinner. Paparazzi was established in 1998, and has managed to keep a true traditional Italian atmosphere since its opening and up until today. The Restaurant is a little hidden, it is indeed right in the centre of the Sunset Boulevard in the very center of Grand Baie, but it is situated on the second floor of the sunset boulevard complex. Paparazzi features an open ‘balcony’ ambience. The décor is luxuriant white. The tables hold wine glasses, sparkling...
Hidden Reef – A wonderful French dining treat !
We have a tradition to go out to dinner to celebrate any happy occasion. This time it was our wedding anniversary. Since we live in Pointe aux Canonniers, we had a full range of restaurants to choose from, all found very short distance from our home. My husband was the one to decide on where to go to and he chose one of his new favorites – Hidden Reef. Hidden Reef quickly became one of his favorite restaurant due to its great atmosphere, beautiful setting and top cuisine consisting of slow-cooked...
Gails’ Cafe- Much more than just a great cup of coffee!
When Gails’s Cafe announced a new menu, we were curious to try it, so Mr “C” met me there for lunch. Upon sitting at the table, I was very happy to learn from the menu and hear from the waiter that Gail’s cafe specializes in healthy and wholesome food- It is about time that a place like this will show up in the area of Grand Baie! At Gail’s Café there is a large variety of specials served every day, depending on the fresh ingredients available at the markets on the relevant day. Gail’s...
C Delights – Delicious Seafood and Steaks in Quatre Bornes
Mr “C” came home and announced “lets go for early dinner”, where should we go I asked? “Let’s try a new restaurant”, he said with much confidence. I of course, was happy to agree as I very much enjoy trying and discovering new restaurants. As I love seafood and Mr “C” prefers meat, it is always a dilemma which type of restaurant to choose. So when our friends told us we MUST TRY the new C Delights restaurant in Quatre Bornes, which is a Seafood & Steak restaurant, we immediately...
Sakura – unique experience of a fine Japanese restaurant!
For all our dear readers, this editor review consists of the two separate visits and dining experiences we had at the Sakura restaurant which we put together as one detailed review. —————– I love Sushi. Absolutely love it. So when Mr. “C” and I wanted to enjoy the best Sushi Grand Baie has to offer, we went to Sakura Japanese restaurant on Royal Road, Naturally. The restaurant has three areas – one is a lounge area for sitting down once you arrive at...
Charka Steak House – Steaks at their very best
Mr. “C” and I absolutely love good steaks; unfortunately there aren’t too many good steakhouses in Mauritius. Recently we were told by a friend that Charka Steak House is the best “original” steak house in Mauritius, serving top quality meats imported from South Africa. This is why, as part of our search for a great steak we decided to visit the Charka Steak House and to try it for ourselves. The Charka steak house is located in the Le Preskil Beach Resort, Pointe Jérome – Mahébourg. Upon...
Patch N’ Parrot- the best place to eat and watch sports
As the famous Patch n’ Parrot announced it introduces a new menu, “Mr. C” and I decided to try this new menu out. The Patch n’ Parrot is located right next to the Hidden Reef Restaurant at Pointe aux Canonniers, and when we arrived there quiet late (blame the heavy traffic) on the night of the Grand Baie 24/7 celebrations, there were still many people eating and watching sports on the huge screens. We were immediately greeted by a warm hello from the restaurant manager, Sean, who handed...
Rasoi by Vineet – Amazing Food & Great Atmosphere

Upon arrival, we couldn’t help but be amazed by the uncompromising beauty of the resort bordered by a turquoise blue lagoon, white sandy beach and tropical gardens. The hotel has a distinctive elegance with contemporary elements crafted for modern connoisseurs who desire the finest experiences imaginable. Bottle palms, frangipani trees and lily pad provide...
