Chinese Restaurants in Flic en Flac

Chinese cooking is one of the oldest restaurant trades in Flic en Flac, and most kitchens here still run the Sino-Mauritian repertoire rather than a regional Chinese menu. Flic en Flac's restaurants line one long coastal road behind the beach, mixing resident-facing kitchens with places built for the hotel and self-catering trade.

Portions in Flic en Flac are built for sharing, so a table of four usually orders three dishes plus rice or noodles. Most places take walk-ins, do a brisk takeaway trade at lunch and close their kitchen earlier than the dining room. Weekend evenings and school holidays are the busiest windows, and the strip is walkable end to end, so it is easy to look at two or three menus before sitting down.
