Fast food and home catering West Coast

It's THE traditional French bakery and patisserie in Mauritius, also present in Grand Baie and Port Louis, which respects the artisanal baking tradition of natural leavening for baguettes and special breads (tourte de seigle, boule aux céréales bio...) just like at home! What's more, only extra-dry Normandy butter is used for the viennoiseries, which have the crispiness of the good stuff! In the pastry department, everything is delicious! There's also a savoury section and a choice of drinks to enjoy on the premises (tables) or to take away.

Well-known to local gourmets who used to come here to stock up on calissons and macaroons, Emma and her team run this little open-air café at one end of Ruisseau Créole. Here, a few ladies are busy concocting the famous cakes, and a selection of freshly homemade sushi, maki, sashimi and more, made to order. There's no mischief to be found on this relaxed terrace, where gourmet pleasures are the only thing on offer! Good news: honest prices mean you can enjoy twice as much. Also available to take away.

Tamarin beach, especially the sandbox just in front of the Veranda Hotel at the car park at the entrance to the bay, is home to one of the best dumpling vendors on the island. As always, the length of the tail acts as a cursor. At the same time, it underlines the taste quality of this Asian street food dish at an unbeatable price. Even if you're there, you'll be tempted by several flavours: meat, fish, vegetables, chicken... whether or not to be accompanied by mines or fried rice. A delight!

Modern and airy, set at one end of the Cascavelle Mall, it's a convivial eatery with kiosks arranged around a central covered square. In addition to McDonald's, the bright, leafy space is home to a dozen other brands, including Mr Miyagi (Chinese), Debonairs (pizzas), Steers (burgers), Juice Bar (fresh juices, veggie snacks), Vndavana Pani Pani (Indian) and more. And for those who prefer to stay longer and have a "real meal", there's a choice of 3 very decent restaurants - Korean, Italian, Japanese.

This chain of cafés is omnipresent in Mauritius and particularly in Port Louis where it already has 8 branches. Its success is based on a vintage and warm decoration that makes you want to linger (gramophones, cement tiles, wood, metal, bricks, materials...), real good coffee prepared by a barista, a choice of fresh or iced drinks (latte, smoothie, detox cocktail...), homemade products to satisfy your sweet and sour cravings (macaroon, brownie, panini, wrap...), a good wifi connection and plugs. Efficient and in the air of time.

This charming organic grocery store also serves as a café and offers a few tables in a cozy setting. Everything here celebrates healthy, balanced and tasty food, based on quality products, sourced and fresh whenever possible. A choice of coffees made with filtered spring water and organic beans from Africa, hot chocolates with oat milk, a selection of detox drinks, boosters, matcha, smoothies made with berries, fruit, seeds and collagen, energy balls and bars... all gluten-free. Attentive service.
