    Street Food in Port Louis

    Street food in Port Louis is a counter trade: snack kiosks, dholl puri carts and boutik windows that sell a handful of items and sell them fast. 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.

    Cash is still the norm in Port Louis and prices sit in the Rs. 25 to Rs. 80 range per item. The busiest carts are done by mid-afternoon, and the queue is the reliable quality signal. 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.
