The Best Places To Find Street Food In Mauritius
As stated earlier, you can find street food everywhere in Mauritius. In every town and village, there are street food sellers. Some of the places to encounter them are near markets, bus stations, bus stops, busy areas, on the coast, etc.
Price, Hygiene & Quality
Mauritius' street food is known for its affordability. They are fast food businesses, and due to street food sellers, competition also rises. Thus, many street foods are affordable. However, since the recent increase in prices because of inflation, street foods did experience an increase in prices as well. Even with that, we can say they are affordable compared to restaurants.
Moreover, hygiene is extremely imperative for food. As street foods are sold outside, be careful. If the foods are prepared and sold on the spot, please make sure the seller is applying basic sanitary measures. The particular place is also significant. Poisoning risks must be taken seriously.
Of course, quality is a priority too. Street foods vary in quality, depending on their prices. What makes a street food seller famous is quality and price. Sometimes, you may encounter a seller selling at a high price, but the quality is worth it.
