For entrée, we were served “Merveilles”, which is similar to a taco but made with wheat flour and accompanied with spicy chutney. Crispy yet not oily, the perfect bite size to kick off a Mauritian feast. As mains, we had Pork Salmi, Beef Tongue Salmi, Fish Curry, Lentil Soup and Mauritian condiments (coconut chutney, crushed chili, achard bilimbi) all served with rice. The highlight of our dish was the Beef Tongue Salmi. We’ve never eaten beef tongue before, but Mario encouraged us to venture out of our comfort zone and to try this exotic delicacy. The sauce was rich and flavourful as it was well balanced with the hint of five spices. Texture wise, the beef tongue was soft and tender. However, it was unfortunately not our cup of tea. I think the fact that we knew it was beef tongue made it difficult to digest. Well, that’s what a food adventure is all about!
