Traditional Creole Foods in Seychelles

A Listly List - In Seychelles, traditional Creole foods reflect the island nation's rich culinary heritage and vibrant seafood-centric cuisine. Start your culinary journey with grilled fish, a staple dish that showcases the fresh and succulent seafood abundant in Seychellois waters, served with a squeeze of lime for a burst of flavour. Shark chutney offers a unique blend of spices and textures for those seeking a more adventurous taste, with shredded shark meat marinated in tangy vinegar and aromatic spices.
