Menus Bol renverser (upside down bowl): bol renversé translates (unsurprisingly) as ‘upside-down bowl’. It’s a theatrical Sino-Mauritian dish that is found in Chinese restaurant menus across the island. The surprise is in the unveiling of the perfect dome of rice, topped with chicken and vegetables in a soy and oyster sauce. It is then crowned with a fried egg, which you take great pleasure in piercing so the golden yolk trickles down the sides. Mauritian Fried noodle (Mauritian style). Farata (flat bread) with potato curry. Rougaille (tomato sauce) with chickpeas and vegetable. Traditional Mauritian Roti (Farata/ Paratha) with the fillings that are served with it.
