In collaboration with the Paradise Cove Boutique Hotel in Mauritius, Alexis Gauthier is introducing a vegan fine-dining experience complete with five deliciously mouthwatering courses. Gauthier traveled to Mauritius to visit local growers and suppliers that helped him source the best local ingredients.
Gauthier also collaborated with brilliant Mauritius chefs to offer guidance, cooperate, and encourage them to think creatively about vegan cuisine. The tasting menu will feature dishes like "curry poulet," and other creative dishes taken from Gauthier's unique mind.
"Sharing ideas and cross-pollinating our creativity is vital in our quest to create delicious food that is free from animal products. Paradise Cove Boutique Resort is on a journey to transform hospitality in Mauritius. They dream, just like me, of a future where everything is local, sustainable and compassionate," said Gauthier in a statement.
