How Mauritians enjoy the 42nd independence Day of Mauritius?
Posted by Master in Mauritius Resto on March 11, 2010
Tomorrow is the 42nd Independence Day of Mauritius and I can’t help but think that since this country has gained its freedom, it has achieved great strides. I am, as always, proud to be a Mauritian. To be honest, around my house you would not always see the Mauritius flag. I think it’s like that for many around the island. But tomorrow is the day to hang that huge flag on the roof of my house and let it float with pride by the mere power of the wind. I am no great patriot as Americans around whose dwelling place you would always be bound to notice the famous American flag, their very emblem. Hats off, these people really have a sense of patriotism.
The Independence Day couldn’t have come on a better day. Tomorrow is Friday and we get a public holiday in style. So, you would expect many people around the whole of Mauritius to go to the seaside and have a nice time with their families and relatives. Others might prefer to stay in during the day but stay strictly out at night. That’s because pubs, bars, discotheques and restaurants would all be opening their welcoming arms towards all. So, wouldn’t it be nice to just follow what your instinct tells you and have an unforgettable Independence Day?
As for me, I am planning to stay at home and enjoy the tranquility and peace of being off from work. I am planning to have a great night’s dinner with my family. Maybe I’ll be giving out a helping hand to prepare food. Speaking about that, I need to dig out a mouthwatering recipe and make some ‘out of ordinary’ culinary creation for tomorrow night. I just think it would be great. What about you?
Spending your money in Mauritius

There is no better place to spend your money than in Mauritius. As soon as you get off that plane, the duty free shop inside the airport will most certainly tempt you to purchase your favourite whisky or perfume at unbeatable prices. It’s absolutely normal that you would think twice to spend your hard earned money. While a lot of things will come for cheap here in Mauritius, others will have quite a hefty price tag. So, spending in Mauritius is quite balanced.
For instance, if you choose a five star, world renowned hotel for your holidays in Mauritius, it’s no surprise that would have to spend a considerable amount for its world class service. This would be suitable for most people who have the means to afford such luxury during their vacations. Now, what about the person coming on a budget? Well, there are so many villas around Mauritius that it’s actually hard not to get one if you have made your booking in advance. Most of the villas in Mauritius are affordable and well equipped. Therefore, should you be landing on the grounds of Mauritius well planned, you could be sure that you would have no problems with the accommodation.
You must now be wondering how you move around. The answer is incredibly simple. There are a lot of car rental firms around the island. You could therefore easily contact them prior to your arrival to negotiate the type of car you would like to take on rent and most importantly the price. Some car rental companies can even deliver your car at the airport so you are hassle free to start your discovery of Mauritius right away. On the other hand, the more economical tourist can simply travel by bus. Traveling by bus in Mauritius is really cheap and you will benefit from a good bus service in most parts of the island. Hence, if you are aware how to spend your money in Mauritius, you could make some important savings.
So, you’ve learnt about where to live and the different means to travel in Mauritius. What about food? Food can be bought for cheap here in Mauritius.

It’s no secret; Mauritius is one among the best holiday destinations across the globe. There are a number of reasons why Mauritius has bagged this status. The most evident one being, Mauritius is a tropical paradise where the sea, sun and sand join their forces to make this island an absolute gem in the Indian Ocean.
Furthermore, there are a number of high class hotels and restaurants around Mauritius. This is because Mauritius has always been ready to provide tourists with the most complete package for tourists. Mauritius is ready for the honeymoon couple, for the golf players (amateur and professional), for the sea lover, for the food lover and a host of other interesting stuffs for every and any category of people.
Whilst a number of hotels are there to offer a unique welcome to visitors, as said above, those on a budget have got to know that Mauritius is the ideal place for any audience. Villas and cars are easily available on rent practically everywhere around the island which is a plus point for anyone who plans to sojourn in Mauritius.
To catch your mind at night and especially to respond to your hunger, you will come across numerous restaurants. Many restaurants around Mauritius provide animations during the week ends, so it will be a pleasure for you to eat, drink, see and listen. You will get the opportunity to witness artists perform the Mauritian Sega right in front of your eyes.
The most important part when going to restaurants is obvious. You have already guessed. It’s of course the food. Let me tell you that most top class restaurants will offer you an unforgettable service. The food will be delicious to eat and your level of appreciation will be high. Of course, not every people have the same taste. Thus, some will find food in other restaurants better and more appealing. Do not have the famous Mauritian beer to complete your dinner at the restaurant you have visited.
All in all, you will experience a feel good factor and will want to get the same feeling the next time you trip to another restaurant around Mauritius.
Wear your smile, live happily!

I will divert a bit from our usual subject today because everything in life doesn’t always sum up with the sea, sun, sand, eating in top class restaurants and score of other stuffs. While life is an undeniable gift, it gives pleasure to see people live it everyday as if it was their last day on Earth. I get the biggest pleasure when I see people live their lives at full speed with all they got. Without complaints they accept life as it is and face their problems with a smile. I actually know people who have tons of problems but always wear a smile on their faces. When you talk to them, they seem to be the happiest people on this planet. The truth is that they secretly grieve and try to find solutions by themselves to keep their heads out of the water.
I, like many people, have a circle of friends. Where I live, we are 4-5 friends including myself. I believe that everyone should have friends. Those who know what friendship is will know exactly what I am talking about. The power of friendship can only be felt. So, we have our meeting spot. If we are all together, we will be found sitting on the cement stair, eaten by weather, laughing, sometimes, well actually everytime, a cigarette in hand debating on some fascinating topic. It wasn’t later than yesterday that we spoke until really late in the night. The best part is, the talks seem to never end and we don’t even notice how time flies by. We would always set the time to go but will never meet our deadline. There is always something good to talk about. It’s fascinating.
The teasing part is always the best part in friendship, I believe. It makes the love grow and it can sometimes make the love disappear- this depends on friends. Hence, we live our lives with all we got and everyone has something to share-not in terms of money. The fun is always alive no matter what the situation. Even if someone is down, we’ll try and get his morale up and make him laugh. Laughing is the best therapy to get freed from stress and forget problems for a while. It makes you feel lighter and you are able to face problems with a clearer mind. This is how I believe life should be lived. With friends and of course family members, you can live a life filled with pleasure. Money is paper but relationships are golden.
So folks, forget about the rest for a while and just think about how to make your life beautiful. Problems will never leave human beings, so we will need to adapt ourselves to live a happy life with it. So, always remember to keep that smile on!

Mauritius is my island; it is the place where I have been born approximately 27 years from now. As I grew, I saw Mauritius develop. Bigger roads were constructed and many buildings were erected. Businesses started to boom in Mauritius. And much emphasis was put into the tourism sector, which has become today, the main source of income for Mauritius. With the continuous flow of tourists to Mauritius, many hotels came into existence in order to keep up with the pace. This gave rise to the opening up of lots of restaurants throughout the island. Restaurants in Mauritius range from high class to the corner of the road ones. So, there is place to eat for every audience.
Should one need to have a look at some of the restaurants in Mauritius, Grand Baie becomes the number one spot to land. Restaurants are found almost everywhere, giving sometimes a headache to those who want to choose the best environment and on top of all, the best dishes. There is however, no indication that one will enjoy the food at a particular restaurant. The only way to know is to try, unless one has a local friend to guide him around Mauritius. Hence, when you come to Mauritius, you could be sure to enjoy a nice moment tasting the finest delicacies.
When people come to Mauritius they feel really happy and they leave the island with sweet memories. The food, the restaurants, the hotels, the people, the sea, the sand and the sun are things you will undoubtedly relate to your friends when you talk about your holidays. So, do not think too much. Mauritius is your one stop shop for quality time.

As we live in Mauritius we are referred to as the ‘full time holidayers’ by one and many. As this seems really true, it is not the case for many Mauritian fellows. As everywhere around the globe, here in Mauritius as well people have to work hard to earn their living. While some people earn lots of cash, others get a meager salary, enough to sustain a living and make both ends meet. People of the high society here in Mauritius are literally kings. When you are wealthy in Mauritius, it means the pleasures are here to be taken at will.
However, this doesn’t mean that the less earning person cannot enjoy. Everyone has his own way of getting the best out of his life. The real beauty is when you see people having maximum fun although their limited spending power. Life is a gift. It’s therefore encouraging to witness people take life positively with all its problems and dilemmas. I will not get into this infinitely debatable subject because this post will never end and you will most probably get bored.
So, one common way many people find for their distraction is to take the whole family out for a treat in one of their favourite restaurants. Whichever the restaurant, if you are pleased with the way they serve you and most importantly if you like their food, then you have made the right choice. But there are some restaurants where you need to be careful before you decide to go and have lunch or dinner. I remember once I ate in a restaurant and fell ill some hours later. I got sore throat and needed medication to get back to normal. I guess the hygiene wasn’t too good, though it didn’t appear to be.
To restrain from getting into such a situation, I advise you take advice from many people about a particular restaurant before wanting to have your lunch or dinner there. Mauritius is a small island, yet full of superb restaurants to give you pure moments of joy. The scents would come searching for your nose and once there, you will suddenly feel a burning envy to eat the most desirable of dishes. Restaurants in Mauritius will make you have the wildest envies to eat and in the coming minutes shower you with dishes going beyond your expectations.
Have your dinners turned out a success here in Mauritius? Have the dishes pleased you so much that you’ve returned to that restaurant days later to taste more? I am eager to hear all your stories….so don’t hesitate and let the words flow!
Mauritius, a mindblowing destination for all folks
Posted by Master in Mauritius Resto on August 7, 2009
Yesterday I went to Chinatown in Port Louis and I must say it’s a truly amazing place. There are so many streets which join each other around Chinatown and in the whole of Port Louis that’s it’s actually difficult to get lost. Every road you take has an issue so no need to worry when you walk in and around Chinatown. It’s really cold here in Mauritius and this weather has not spared Port Louis. At first, I believed that I would never be able to experience winter in Port Louis but I was proved wrong a week ago.
Walk on the roads and you will be filled with joy if you are hungry. Chinese restaurants will take your breath away as they will almost automatically attract you to eat. Food stalls are found everywhere in Port Louis, so if you need to spend minimum money and yet have a full stomach, they are the most suitable option for you. On the other hand, should you require a fine meal in the air-conditioned space of a nice restaurant, you will just need to walk around and make your choice.
Well, Mauritius is kind of an extraordinary place. I remember some time back I was talking to a friend. We were saying that people splash lots of their hard earned cash to come to Mauritius for the sake of vacations. So, this brought us to the fact that we are indeed lucky because we are born in Mauritius. We are just like permanent holidayers! We have all the possibilities here which all tourists come searching for. I mean, we can move to any restaurant of our choice and have that wonderful candlelight dinner in couple. The sun and the sea are here to savour as much as we want. Since Mauritius isn’t too huge, a long drive in most of the cases isn’t needed to get to the beach of your choice.
For me, Blue Bay is the best beach that you can find in Mauritius. Its white sand and turquoise water will tempt you ate once to have a bath. Blue Bay has all that it takes to give you pure moments of joy. Professional divers can head to the Blue Bay marine park to have a look at the awesome undersea world. Those who have their waterproof cameras can take shots at will. But it is however strictly prohibited to fish or capture anything living from there. This is a unique place in Mauritius and afterall, it’s worthy protecting the undersea ecosystem.
You will also find a restaurant in Blue Bay where you will be able to relax and drink a beer or even eat something after your exciting day in the sea. All in all, Mauritius has lots more to give when it comes to having fun, living in a hotel or eating in a top class restaurant. You just need to experience Mauritius to know it.
I am impatient to hear your views, adventures you’ve gone through and your opinion of Mauritius.
Restaurants and night clubs of Grand Baie for your Saturday night pleasures
Posted by Master in Mauritius Resto on August 5, 2009
Mauritius is really nice for a night out with friends or in couple. There are so many places spread over Mauritius where you will have the opportunity to relax and experience enjoyment. Want a romantic dinner? Head to one of the top class restaurants where you will undoubtedly find the right setup for an unforgettable time. Live the exceptional atmosphere in and around the restaurant and you might certainly wish for more of such quality time. Should you be among friends, you could have a headache pointing out the most appropriate restaurant.
As such, Grand Baie is a top of the list destination in Mauritius for locals and tourists alike. The place is filled with bars, pubs, restaurants and hotels among others. Many times our nights out among friends during Saturday nights end there. Sometimes we will dine in one of the fine restaurants found there. On another day, we’ll simply skip restaurants and go clubbing straight away. Of course all of us would have already taken dinner at home! The night clubs of Grand Baie are just what you need after a week of hard work. They have all that it takes to offer you your moment of glory and freedom. Just try one of these night clubs and you will come telling me the next day how much you drank!
Should you wish to just drink all night, set your target to any restaurant of your choice in Grand Baie. You will have a bar in front of you to choose whichever type of liquor you desire at will. But be careful to drink responsibly because I’m sure you do not want your night to end wrongly. If you have planned to come by car, bring along someone who doesn’t consume alcohol. Like that you will be assured a safe drive back home.
A quiet time out in Grand Baie is also possible. Drive to a top notch restaurant and get pleasure from the excellent service that will be offered to you. Simply spend a couple of hours in that corner of Mauritius and see for yourself how right you have been going there.
