As a traveller, I enjoy seeing touristy sites as well as observing how the locals live. The best cuisine of any place is usually in the people's houses. That's the real taste of the country.
Recently, I went to Mauritius and revisited the touristic sites which I haven't seen for years. Although, Mauritius has great restaurants, my mom and aunt makes amazing Mauritian cuisine as well. Needless to say, their dishes are yummy!
