Paul
About
Paul, on Mauritius, is a bakery in Bagatelle, Moka, within reach of Port Louis and the island's main towns. First-time visitors can expect counter service and a counter of baked goods to take away, with the website at https://linktr.ee/PAUL_1889 listing what is on offer.
A 4.3 out of 5 average across 265 reviews places it among the more-reviewed bakeries on the island, a record built on a steady stream of feedback. Bagatelle sits in Moka, so arrivals from Port Louis, Grand Baie, Flic en Flac and Pereybère can reach it by road without crossing the island.
The bakery sits inland in Moka district, north of the central plateau, with Beau-Vallon and Le Morne further out along the coast. Sega music and dance, led by the ravanne drum, are traditional on both Mauritius and Rodrigues, and the bakery's name recalls a French chain.
Mauritius and Rodrigues have a tropical maritime climate, warm all year and cooled by the southeast trade winds, so mornings are the easiest time to travel. Grilled octopus, called ourite, is a speciality of Rodrigues, and the island's food draws on the sea and the many communities that have settled here.
