Comtesse du Barry
About
Found on Réunion, Comtesse du Barry sits at 43 Rue de la Compagnie in Saint-Denis 97400, Reunión, within the island's capital and its main administrative centre. Saint-Denis is the island's principal town, so the venue is straightforward to reach from the resorts and towns visitors travel between. From Saint-Gilles-les-Bains on the west coast, Saint-Pierre in the south or Cilaos in the highlands, the road network leads back to the capital. The venue is a deli, and its counters serve a neighbourhood that blends metropolitan French and Creole daily life.
The shop opens Tuesday to Saturday from 09:00 to 13:00 and again from 14:30 to 18:30, closing for lunch in the French manner. A rating of 3.4 out of 5 from 19 reviews reflects a modest but established following among those who shop here. Its website, http://www.dubarry.re/, is the online reference for the business. Saint-Denis itself is where many visitors begin a trip, arriving at the island's airport before heading to the coast.
Réunion's rainfall varies sharply, with the windward east coast far wetter than the sheltered west, so the capital's climate differs from the beach towns. French is the official language, and Réunion Creole is spoken widely in daily life, which helps in shops and markets. Réunionnais cooking blends Creole, French, Indian and Chinese influences, and curries are served over rice.
Travellers based in Saint-Gilles-les-Bains or Saint-Pierre can reach Saint-Denis by road, and the capital's grid makes the venue easy to find on foot. A visit fits naturally into a morning spent in the centre before the lunch closure. Those heading to Cilaos or Le Tampon later in the day will find the shop's morning hours convenient.
