Mauritius offers a range of cuisines to satisfy any foodie. There are also a variety of restaurants and eateries to suit every budget—from cheap coffee houses and stalls to gourmet restaurants. A budget meal will cost anything from US$1-5. An expensive meal can cost more than US$20. The restaurants in Le Caudan Waterfront are open until midnight and even later.
The nightlife in Port Louis is slowly being revived through the Le Caudan Waterfront but is not scintillating by any standards. The L’ Amicale Chinese Gaming house is open till 2 a.m. for gambling buffs. The trendy northern resort of Grand Baie offers a good alternative to Port Louis’ nightlife.
Shopping
The Port Louis Market in the capital has some great bargains in souvenirs, handicrafts originating from every ethnic community, clothes and foodstuffs. There are more upmarket options in the Le Caudan Waterfront, and hotel stores of course.
