Cold Storage
About
In Mahé (Seychelles), Cold Storage is a butcher's shop at Manglier St in Victoria, the island capital. Victoria sits on Mahé's north-east coast, and the nearby areas of Port Glaud, Beau Vallon, Anse Royale, Anse Takamaka, Anse Intendance, Glacis and Bel Ombre ring the island around it.
The shop trades as a butcher, which means cuts of meat rather than the fish and coconut milk that define Seychellois Creole cooking. First-time visitors should expect a working butcher's counter in the centre of Victoria, where the stock is meat and the service is straightforward rather than a browsing destination. Twelve reviews give Cold Storage an average of 4.1 out of 5, a figure built on the shop's own trade rather than on passing tourist traffic.
Seychellois Creole is the everyday language, with English and French also official, so visitors can ask for what they need without difficulty. The granitic inner islands differ from the low coral atolls of the outer Seychelles, and Mahé belongs to the former group.
Moutya, a dance with drums and call-and-response singing, is a traditional Seychellois art listed by UNESCO, and it belongs to the same island culture that shapes the food sold here. Cold Storage serves Victoria's residents and anyone cooking meat on Mahé, with the 4.1 rating from 12 reviews reflecting a shop that has earned local custom.
