While we did not specifically take this tour, we did enjoy a cooking demonstration and lunch with these wonderful ladies. I’d highly recommend any opportunity to learn and eat their wonder food.

+4 photosOn a passé un super moment que l'on n'est pas prêt d'oublier. Un accueil chaleureux, une visite du marché très instructive, un délicieux repas préparé ensemble, le tout accompagné de rhums arrangés... Bref le bonheur.
The private cooking lesson was amazing! Jaya and Avi were very nice to us and accommodating, as well as showing us what its like to experience the islands cuisine as a local. They took us to the markets to buy groceries and souvenirs, and taught us how to make traditional indo-mauritian food. They were very knowledgeable and generous to us as well. Would go back!
This experience was simply amazing. Java and Aby are beautiful people - inside and out. But they’re not only kind, they are also as local as it can get. Both know a lot about the island. It was almost an educational session - historically and culturally - while at the same time I learned a lot about the food and cooking there. The food tasted delicious. Everything was made and served with love. I would 100% recommend this to anybody visiting the island. Thank you both for an amazing day :) PS: D...read more

This was a fabulous day, we met Jaya, Avi and Jaya's parents at their house and talked a little about Mauritius and Mauritian food then Avi drove us to the market with Jaya for a brilliant tour. First we were given gateaux piments and taken to a local fishmonger to choose a fish. At the market we had fresh roti and dal puri with a local milk shake then a extensive tour around the vegetable market where Jaya explained all the different vegetables, herbs and spices, it was a very hands on experien...read more



Dear Cso1998 , Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review! It was a real pleasure welcoming you into our home and sharing a slice of authentic Mauritius with you. I’m thrilled that you enjoyed every part of the experience—from the moment we started with a taste of gateaux piments to picking out fresh fish at the market and savoring those roti and dal puri treats. Showing you around the vegetable market and exploring the colors, aromas, and flavors of our local herbs and spices is one of my favorite parts of the tour, and I’m so glad you enjoyed getting hands-on with it all! The best part for us was preparing that masala fish curry together with Jaya and her mum; it really felt like sharing a piece of our family tradition with you. Knowing it was the “best masala fish curry” you’ve ever had brings a huge smile to all of us! Thank you for recommending this experience to others—it means a lot to us to know we’ve helped make your time in Mauritius memorable. We can't wait to welcome you back. Warm regards, Avi
