News Update:

International Kreol Festival in Grand Baie:
Sharing is Caring!

The International Kreol Festival in Grand Baie celebrated the essence of Mauritian cuisine alongside a beach concert on December 15. Following events at Le Morne and Trou d'Eau Douce, the festival aimed to attract a broader audience by highlighting popular Mauritian cuisine as a reflection of its diverse and vibrant culture.
This culinary showcase serves as an excellent opportunity to explore Mauritius through its flavors, reminiscent of notable culinary experiences. The festival highlighted the significance of sharing meals, particularly as social connections are often forged over food. Tourists flocked to savor local delights, from fried mine to fish vindaye, paired with refreshing drinks like tamarind juice and cane juice. Rather than a formal celebration, this Culinary Festival invited guests to indulge in the pleasures of Mauritian gastronomy, fostering connections between locals and visitors. Popular dishes like ‘briani’ and steamed dumplings have become part of the local
lexicon, illustrating the fusion of cultures on the island.

The festival intertwined music and cuisine, with performers entertaining attendees while aromas filled the air. This blend resonates with the poetic nature of cooking, revealing that food is integral to understanding a culture. The Kreol Festival
underscores the importance of culinary arts in Mauritian heritage, offering an open invitation to experience the warmth of hospitality that characterizes the island. As locals share their culinary traditions, it is clear that the heart of Mauritius beats strongest
when gathered around a table.

Press Release Updates:

The International Kreol Festival kicks off in Le Morne:
Mauritianism as an offering.

At the foot of the Great Pyramid of Egypt, Napoleon Bonaparte took the measure of time and humility. It would not be wrong to say that Navin Ramgoolam, the Prime Minister, and Paul Bérenger, his deputy, having both visited the summit of the Morne mountain, were able to contemplate Creolité in all its splendour.

It was in fact in this symbolic place, at the foot of this mountain listed as a World Heritage Site, that the communion between a people and those who chart its destiny took place yesterday.

With two ministers conducting the orchestra, Richard Duval for Tourism and Mahen Gondeea for Culture, one could only shudder at the sound of the words that testified to the Creole richness of this island. Créolité, boté nou morisianism’, a theme that makes perfect sense, as Zanzak Arjoon, griot for the evening and philosopher of a mixed-race festival, points out.

It sounds like Robin Williams is making quite a splash in the golf world! His rapid rise through the ranks, especially being named the Fortress Rookie of the Year and securing a DP World Tour card, is impressive. Having a legend like Gary Player mentoring him is a fantastic opportunity that could shape his career.
The AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open should be an exciting event, especially with a group of young talents competing.
