The Mauritian establishment is in tune with the key event of the year for the Hindu people, the majority on the enchanted island.<\/em><\/p>\n

From October 18th to 25th, the Westin Turtle Bay Resort & Spa Mauritius is offering its guests a series of festivities in honor of the Divali festival of lights. Representing nearly 60% of the island’s population, Indo-Mauritians transform the island into an enchanted interlude for a few days, placing oil lamps outside every door. It’s a tradition with a double symbolic meaning: driving away evil and welcoming the arrival of summer. Guests of the Westin Turtle Bay Resort & Spa Mauritius can look forward to a week of intense, gourmet festivities. <\/p>\n

Once again, the establishment is pulling out all the stops with themed evenings focusing on the richness of Indian gastronomy and its different provinces: Hyderabad, Punjab, Rajasthan & Gujarat. Every day of the week, guests can enjoy a typical Indian breakfast with Idli<\/em>, traditional cakes from the state of Karnataka, made with black lentils and fermented rice; Poha<\/em>, a dish from Maharasra, made with dried rice, potatoes, onions and spices; and the essential lentil curry called Sambar<\/em>. <\/p>\n

Every evening, guests will be treated to a new theme in the refined Indian restaurant Kangan, such as Kebab Night<\/em>, where they can savour Kebabs in Indian colors, or the Indian Street Food<\/em> Buffet, which will give them the impression of strolling through the streets of Bombay. The climax of the festivities will be the Divali Buffet<\/em> on October 19, featuring an array of Indian specialities: Meat Beli Ram<\/em>, a legendary lamb dish, Vegetable Kadhi,<\/em> a spicy yoghurt speciality from northern India, or Biryani, a dish based on basmati rice, chicken, yoghurt, spices, saffron, coriander and fried onions… enough to make your mouth water. <\/p>\n

Enjoy a local cocktail or the traditional Indian lassie to the sound of the evening’s musical entertainment: Bollywood DJs, live Indian and African bands or Sega, the local dance… a unique journey.<\/p>\n
