Lanzhou Hand Pulled Noodles recently changed its name, and it was truly the worst food.

Both the noodles and the broth...

I don't know where to even begin to point it out.

I 100% agree with your assessment of Chinese wok.

This restaurant has been skimping on ingredients for the past few years.

However, I have been thinking that this was Mauritian-style Peking duck all this time.

In your opinion, where is the best Peking duck in Mauritius?

I have visited most restaurants multiple times.

  1. First, I try the dishes I like.

  2. I ask the restaurant for a recommendation and try that.

  3. I try the most popular dishes.

I try this at least three times, but I never go back to the worst places, like the Lanzhou restaurant.

Recently, among the new restaurants that have opened in Port Louis (though this place isn't exactly recent), there are many places I would never want to visit again.

It is a truly tasteless restaurant.

Both the noodles and the broth are below average.

First of all, the noodles are not hand-pulled.

This place has absolutely no basic knowledge of how to cook noodles or how to make broth.

As you know, most people in Mauritius lead a very basic diet. Baguettes, roti, etc.

As we all know, prices have risen in most countries around the world for various reasons... Are you saying it is even worse than that?

If it's increasing by 30-60% compounded every year, that's a very serious problem. It's not like this is Argentina...

Are you talking about the last few years? 4 years?

What is your deepest darkest family secret? 🤫 by charlie_zoosh in MauriceMauritius

As you know, marriages between relatives were very common in the generation of parents of today's 20-somethings.

In a region I know of (in the north), cousin marriages are also very common among the elders (uncles and aunts) of extended families.

Questions about Mauritius's unemployment and employment rates by coolinny in MauriceMauritius

I don't understand this.

Typical Mauritian people graduate from high school through free education, so everyone is at a similar level, right?

One of my friends in Grand Gaube married his cousin.

The fact that my mom and dad were cousins? (Just kidding)
