Anaand Shop

4.7(6 reviews)

About

Anaand Shop serves Mauritius from its spot in Solferino No 1, Vacoas-Phoenix, a neighbourhood store on the island's central plateau. Shoppers rate it 4.7 out of 5 across 6 reviews, a strong signal for a small convenience store. The shop's Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/foodstore.mauritius/posts/anand-store-solferino-no1-vacoas/776518364568671/ carries its details. Vacoas-Phoenix sits inland between the capital and the island's southern towns, so reaching it from Port Louis or the coastal resorts means a drive or bus ride across the plateau. Grand Baie, Flic en Flac and Belle Mare lie further out, making this a stop for those already crossing the island rather than a beachside errand. English is the official language of the republic, and French is common in the media and in business, so shoppers can generally manage in either. Creole cooking on the island uses rice, seafood, tomato rougaille and hot chilli paste, and a convenience store in a residential area like this one is where such everyday ingredients are picked up. The cyclone season runs from November to April, and the cooler, drier months fall between June and September, which shapes when visitors travel and how they plan errands. Warm weather cooled by the southeast trade winds makes the island comfortable for most of the year.
