A taste of Seychelles cuisine in Australia
Almasalla,Gate Arab Tourism News- The Seychelles unique cuisine has always been a key unique selling point for these mid-ocean islands. The Seychelles Creole Cuisine is promoted as being part of the rich Seychelles culture. The Seychelles Creole cuisine has greatly evolved across centuries as a result of countless research and perfection.
The Seychellois nation is proud of its cuisine as it is unique in many ways. Thanks to Roddy Philoé, a young Seychellois residing in Australia, Creole dishes are today being enjoyed in Australia by young and old alike.
His venture started in February 2014 with Mr Philoé’s aspiration and determination to build a traditional restaurant on Caucus Island.
The Rasa Di Sayang Restaurant portrays the perfect setting of Seychelles, and is today also well reputed for the scrumptious Creole dishes, as well as the Malay and international cuisine. Posters of Seychelles hanging on the wall give the restaurant’s clients a feeling of how picturesque Roddy Philoé’s homeland really is.
The clients who are mainly Australians themselves and visitors to the area enjoy an assortment of sea food dishes served on a buffet of mainly fish, meat and veggie combos.
Mr Philoé was in Seychelles recently where he gathered more promotional material to help make Seychelles more visible as the ideal destination for holiday.
Whilst in Seychelles Roddy Philoé met the Seychelles Tourism Board’s deputy chief executive Nathalie Didon at ESPACE building in Victoria.
“The business is fruitful, I really love cooking and promoting the Seychellois cuisine. I enjoy seeing the many visitors enjoying my country’s cuisine,” Roddy Philoé explained to Nathalie Didon at the Tourism Board.
He added that he also loves talking to his clients about his dear homeland.
Mr Philoé said many Australians and foreigners to his restaurant say they would like to visit Seychelles.
Mrs Didon said the idea of having the Seychelles Creole cuisine in Australia is itself an attraction for the potential tourists who enjoy discovering holiday destinations through various food experiences.
“I congratulate Mr Philoé for this initiative as he is giving Seychelles more publicity and this will help to entice more visitors to our shores,” Mrs Didon said.
Mr Philoé visited the Seychelles Tourism Academy (STA) where discussions centred on the possibility of exchanges between the STA students and his restaurant so that he can learn and apply more technics and aspects of the Seychellois cuisine.
