    What to order in Port Louis

    Creole & Mauritian Restaurants in Port Louis

    Creole and Mauritian cooking in Port Louis lives in small family kitchens, snack counters and table d'hôte houses rather than large dining rooms. The capital concentrates more kitchens per square kilometre than anywhere else on the island, spread between Chinatown, the Caudan Waterfront, Plaine Verte and the market end of town.

    Menus in Port Louis change with the market, so a short chalkboard is a good sign. Lunch is the main service, portions come with rice, and prices stay well below the tourist restaurants on the coast. Port Louis eats at lunch: the office trade fills tables from noon and a large share of the city's kitchens are shut by early evening, especially outside the waterfront.
