Everyone knows the best food for lazy stay-in days and for sharing with friends is pizza. It’s hard to find another food item as universally loved as the humble slice of pizza. Unsurprisingly, Mauritius has seen a steady increase in pizza places and restaurants in recent years, much to the delight of the island’s gourmands. Last November, Frolic organized a Pizza Crawl Meetup in Tamarin/Black River where we tried and rated many pizzas; we will mention the results in our article. Whether you’re constantly on the lookout for traditional Neapolitan or experimental flavors, here is our list of favorite pizza restaurants in Tamarin, Flic en Flac, and Black River, Mauritius!
