Best Breakfast in the Maldives!

Breakfast à la Maldivienne is located near the Villingilli ferry terminal. The Breakfast à la Maldivienne stand out amongst the squeezed together teashops in this part of town.

Teashops like most hawker places are usually famous for one or two special dishes or drinks that go together so well its legendary. As the name suggests the Breakfast à la Maldivienne is fast becoming to be known as one of the best places that serves breakfast in the Maldives. The Breakfast à la Maldivienne hides within a canopy of leaves and is quite hard to locate if you are not farmiliar with the area or would not look hard enough.The Breakfast à la Maldivienne is particularly one with palm trees and adored with powder white sand. Once inside a surprisingly cherry red interior greets its customers even the tables and fans are red.

Breakfast à la Maldivienne at 9am is when the people get all piling. As we sat on out table outside under the shade of the palm trees, we see people fresh off start their mornings here.

Breakfast at La Maldivienne Restaurant

We opt for a serving of flat bread with grated coconut called Huni roshi and Tuna and grated coconut called Mashuni. The service and the way the food arrives are your table is definitely noteworthy. One can sense that a system has been developed by a skilled manager of sorts. The Breakfast à la Maldivienne huni roshi is top notch and served hot of the pan. It was crispy and sweet just as it should be a delightful coconut dish. The mashuni however is perfect with all the ingredients fusing together to make an impression on your palate, that says this is the flavor of Maldivian cuisine and it is heavenly.

The way the dishes are prepared and served are very straightforward and no room for fancy cut outs.

I fancied the Kurumba which is coconut juice from young coconuts, served chilled with shavings of coconut meat that has the consistency of syrup. Perfect drink for a sunny day.

The small cafe is well served by the four highly efficient waiters wearing white shirts and black pants. Tip them well you’ll be surprised on how quickly they serve and clean up.

Now for some sweets and coffee. The waiter serves small portions of hedika which are sweets and different kinds of rice cakes. Alas the strong delightful aroma of the coffee is too much to resist. The Italian Lavazza coffee was very impressive and was frothy and full flavored.

It is no surprise and we now understand why people swarm for breakfast or more like brunch at the Breakfast à la Maldivienne and the other neighboring stalls. The food is just delightful and is a perfect way to start your day. I’m pretty sure I’ll be trying out the other teashops next time and see what surprises are in store.  Find out more about holidaying in the Maldives at wwwMaldives.com.
