  • Turns out Pakistan Hotel in Desforges Mauritius is not a hotel, but a great place to find food. As this is a place mostly for locals it was a bit of a learning curve for us, but everyone was helpful. Choose some gato and other fried goodies and a piece of bread. The helpful guy will cut the bread, add some butter and kraft cheese and you are almost good to go, don't forget the tea. Hot, milky, and strong, the tea is what it's all about.
    We also tried a chili stuffed with chicken and deep-fried and a great chicken curry. The Pakistan Hotel is a must-visit in Port Louis to experience the real Mauritius.

    What a mouth-watering video ! The Pakistan Hotel is indeed a hub of culinary delights which has been going for decades, and regularly frequented by the locals of Plaine Verte and day-trippers from far and wide. What never ceases to amaze me however is your enthusiasm for sampling the variety of Mauritian delicacies and giving them such a spin that one can't wait to give it a try. Full marks for the way you and Ricky do this. Other You Tubers , mainly the expats should take a leaf out of your book as they tend to adapt an elitist and snobby attitude in compiling their output, whereas your videos give a more entertaining account of life in Mauritius. Looking forward to more of the same.

Different cultures Different foods all available easily just enjoy and be happy healthy and love and respect your neighbors and their food. Food brings people together isn't.

    How about interviewing random people about their story and what life is like in Mauritius. Sit down with them in a quiet park and share a meal and conversation. You guys have blessed our eyes with your video footage of buildings, malls, beaches, food and country drives, but we are missing local conversation with the locals. Is language a problem with doing this? Durban,SA

      Well in Pakistan people of ALL communities come and enjoy a peaceful momemt.We dont need Chinese or Creole hotels only. We are Mauritians. We go to school as mauritians. We meet colleagues at work as mauritians. Any place we go is mixed except of course for prayers where each community go separately to their mosque mandir church etc. So as i say no need to devote a place like a restaurant specifically for a specific community. We are mauritians who live peacefully while respecting each other's cultural differences.

      @@BryanDiscoversWorld oh yeah, you wont see such thing everywhere in mru. From what i heard, its the only place that does it. Some says its religious purposes, some says to keep flies away. Whatever is it, i know alot of people wont go in just because of the smokes. But not everybody is bothered by it. This type of place is called "Tea Hotel". There use to be alot of them. But now, there is only a few left. Any "tea hotel" you go you will get exactly same kind of food. They use to be near cinemas. As soon as you finish watching movies, you go and have tea with freshly made hot bread butter cheese and "gato piment". But nowadays the bread is not that hot, and the gato piment (chilli bites) also. Because the timming has changed. You are lucky to grab a freshly hot bread with melted butter, cheese and hot gato piment.
