hi everyone welcome to a market in port louis but not the one you know
let's go let's go check it out there are a lot of stands outside which we
will explore but first of all we've got to get into this building it's like a two-story
i think it's a sign let's start at the food court
we are here in the food court um it doesn't look like there's much to
go with some rotis here and some alouda across there but the prices are really cheap during
normal time let me show you this first choice which is closed unfortunately but they're
riz frite is 60 rupees mine for it 60 rupees and mine poulet is 50.
but not today this guy's got alouda and things but he's also got the juices
syrups ice cream blueberry and of course almond and rose well they are making them fresh here
so they've got all the stuff ready for it oh he's actually going to make one there we go
and there we are on to the fire oh look at it bubbling away
and he has all the beautiful fillings the bean the tomato
i think of brede oh coconut curry wow and then some atchars those look amazing
can't wait to try this guys
a little drizzle of oil
oh starting to get some color on it
oh and off it goes little bits yes a little bit chilli no problem small chilli
oh lovely
brede
oh and it's got this nice standing area where you can actually come and eat it this is going
to be way too hot though it just got cooked how lucky are we right from here stand number four
look at all that stuff on the inside i know she's got like coconut chutney
oh wow that is going to be so good still too hot oh it's so warm oh wow
it comes straight through oh man
awesome that is a good filling i love new places they add so many interesting things onto roti's
tastes like there's a bit of pickle in as well yeah i think it's an atchar and atchar yes
oh wow this is the breakfast of champions fresh cooked fresh made great ingredients bon appetit
those are the oddest vegetables i've seen so far let's go check them out
there are some clothes here i do see the veg down there a little
bit but i thought we'll just walk through because well this is here
loads of kitchen things
fabrics
this is more of a functional market it feels like when you got beautiful cookware wow it's so shiny
heavy i often see incense but i haven't actually seen like perfumes that you can buy out
now this is the veggie section it doesn't look quiet they did say
tuesdays was quite bustling but but it starts at six in the morning oh we late
these are actually fried onion 125 for half a kg crispy fried for you
and then of course salt fish
and little shrimps
everything has a price on it
only 90 pound for tomatoes
i think this is the chinese potato not sure not sure though that's definitely
ginger i know ginger and coriander oh man these carrots are huge monster carrots more tomatoes
some onions right some some green onions with the actual onion on them
but have a look at these things what are these i'd say like it's a radish shoot maybe
it's really cool we don't know what they are but Riki's going to buy one of those
well when we come we always bring our own packets save the environment as much as you can
what does it smell
like bitter um definitely a sprout of something
gonna have to look it up well you can still get potatoes at 20 here
and then the indian ones are 25.
these potatoes which i think are king edwards actually come from
india the actual indian potatoes and these ones come from france so imported potatoes as well
oh wow these are actually kumquats and of course beautiful chilies and
bread fruits
i'm not sure i think these might be the chinese potato
what do you think we'll have to ask someone they're 20 rupees we managed to get a whole bag of
them but probably yeah for 25 rupees but you get to put another one what do you do because we used to
um at most markets you you give them the money and then they put in for you yes but she insisted that
we had to choose our own chinese potatoes and i'm not sure why because we've never done this before
so they might be horrible ones i figured a smaller is better for salads but i don't know we'll see
so there's quite a large fruit section yeah some of the pricings
oh seventy
sixty
oh and there's also some popcorn
i think if you're coming to the veg section you come early and uh you get your stuff early
otherwise just getting the late stuff but it still looks great but now into the meat
wow it looks great in there oh wow look at all this great meat and would you believe an ox tail
you can get a whole ox tail yes yes oh wow but great looking meat

Sa ki bon sa
of course you can get some eggs 180 5 for 30. oh man these are the biggest eggs i've
seen in mauritius they are massive they must come from those chickens we saw inside eggs
massive coffee mugs here so you can probably get a proper full-size
coffee mug and some medium ones as well well they got some flip-flops but they have dodo ones
summer every step dodo
so we got some stuff
but what is this this this solar powered solar powered light
you can charge your cell phone from it as well brilliant we're heading back up to
where we first saw the sign what i like about this market is the pricing is right there
so i'm not sure the colant is but it's 100 and 250 for something else
caftan
yeah pretty cool these are all clothes and things so i don't know what i'm out
of my element i understand foods Riki will have to explain okay

massive chilies not sure what Riki's doing she left me and now
these are 150 what
oh some cotton it looks like it's 10 rupees that can't be right 10 rupees they have a few items of
clothing that are a little bit different at this market than you'll find to other markets like uh
comfortable dresses and stuff and they seem to be more designed for bigger sized people as well
i was going to say normal unlike the vegetables i think the clothing goes on all day
there is it's a lot it's like it's a lot of clothing so if you need clothing
and what's pretty cool is that you can just shop around people tell you the price but they don't
haggle you or ask you to buy anything you just come here and look around well that's the view of
the mountain uh the thumb and there are toilets up here so here they are a pretty functional toilet
and it even has a mirror and a basin of course toilets aren't bad but they're all the hole in
the floor type so i'll wait so you can here you see there's quite a bit of parking here and a
little bit on the other side and then this is all the outside vendors including under that big shed
space for loads of vendors and in case i didn't point it out it's like
right next to the hills of port louis so pretty easy to find
wow look at this market oh yeah it really is i love the structure of it as well that
it's like a double story yeah really big i think it's way bigger than port louis market
i i don't know i don't know about that maybe with the double story but it is a really big place
oh let me just swing around here this is the area that we're in that's like the whole of Port Louis we
had a bit of an angle here but it is just the area oh you can actually see the sea at the end there we're in
cite martial oh that's pretty cool let's bring it back so the outside area also has some vegetables
so it's like a mini area out here maybe this was built first and then the big market was rebuilt
but the people like to stay here so veggies and clothes and and everything basically you need
but less of we're in port louis mauritius right next to the mountains and this is the market
wow cite martial market it's fantastic it's got parking and almost everything
you need well anyway everyone thanks for watching see you again next time
