Fast food and home catering Port Louis

AKA Chu Fung Leung. LePetitFuté loves institutions, and this is one of them, firmly rooted in Chinatown since 1942 and proudly run by three generations of Chu family pastry chefs. It is frequented by the entire local Chinese-Mauritian community (but not only), who come here to stock up on Hakka cakes, moon cakes, wax cakes, peanut cookies, zongzi, etc., all names that evoke the unknown, travel, the delight of a sweet purchase in a store that has been refurbished but has retained its exotic charm. Let's take a break.

In the main pedestrian alley of the Caudan Waterfront, the one partially covered with umbrellas, it's impossible to miss the colorful stands selling fresh fruit juices. Mangoes, pineapples, oranges, bananas... it's hard to resist the freshness and creaminess of a fast-acting vitamin cure that smells of exoticism and pep! You can ask for a takeaway or take a break at one of the many outdoor tables and chairs set up for this purpose, from which you can watch the nonchalant ballet of strollers and the more hurried ballet of Port Louis workers.

A must for those who want to taste Mauritian street food and immerse themselves in an authentic local atmosphere, Desforges Street (alias SSR) is one of the most popular in Port Louis: a historic address to be discovered preferably in the evening, when the offices close, when the street lamps are lit, the animation is in full swing and the gargotes and street stalls are bursting with freshly cooked dishes. Effluents and colors form a devilishly lively picture in the hubbub of conversations and the smoke of the grills. And it's good too!

Recent, this space 100% local colors promotes the Mauritian street food, this famous street food which is part of the DNA of the island and allows to eat small delicious snacks at very low prices. We are in Caudan, a modern leisure and shopping area, so much so that the hygiene standards are respected. It's time to taste the Pani Puri, salted fried cakes, various dumplings, sugar cane drinks, etc. The stands are lined up on a small esplanade and you can nibble in the shade of large umbrellas.
