Chez Paul
About
Chez Paul in Mauritius is a restaurant set in Chamarel, in the island's south-western highlands.
Diners come here for the setting as much as the food, with the village sitting inland from the coastal resorts. A 4.7 out of 5 rating from 291 reviews places it among the better-regarded tables on the island. First-time visitors should expect a sit-down meal rather than a quick stop, with the kitchen's reputation built over many covers.
The drive up to Chamarel suits anyone based at Port Louis, Grand Baie, Flic en Flac, Pereybère, Beau-Vallon, Le Morne, Belle Mare or Mahébourg, though the winding roads mean allowing extra time. Mauritian Creole is the most widely spoken language, and Rodrigues has its own related Creole, so English and French both serve visitors well.
Creole cooking on both islands uses rice, seafood, tomato rougaille and hot chilli paste, which shapes much of what appears on plates here. The dodo lived on Mauritius and the solitaire on Rodrigues, and both flightless birds are now extinct, a story told across the island's museums.
