Appetizing Food and Cuisine in Seychelles

Being surrounded by water on all sides, the biggest star of the food in Seychelles is the fish and the seafood, which is caught fresh, then sold in the markets and served in the restaurants. The cuisine in Seychelles has been influenced by African, British, French and Indian. Some herbs and spices are local and some are imported from Africa and India. Some restaurants serve special food according to cuisines, and even international food for travelling customers, but it is advisable to try the local Creole cuisine which is highly famous for being highly delicious as it combines a lot of different spices and style over time to create a single signature cuisine.
