Wining & dining in Mozambique...

In every country & culture, there are culinary favorites - Mozambique being no exception. Because of its heritage, Mozambique’s cuisine is largely Portuguese with Eastern influences. A visit to a local market, or Mercado, provides a wide range of fresh produce, fish & seafood, along with a host of other items that you would find in a regular supermarket.

• National specialties include peri-peri chicken, Zambezi shellfish & succulent prawns.
•  Vilanculos is known for its bountiful seafood – prawns, lobster & calamari (lulas), as well as game fish such as sea bass, red snapper, kingfish, tuna & dorado caught in the warm waters of the Bazaruto Archipelago. Fresh fish & seafood is also often available from local fishermen on the beach.
• For in-between times, Portuguese-style bread & pastries are also a favorite, with cafes & ‘pastelarias’ being a common characteristic of most of the bigger cities & small coastal towns.   
• Cashew nuts & huge, juicy pineapples for sale typify Mozambican roadsides & are definitely worth sampling.
• Local Mozambican beer is hugely popular with 2M (Doiseme) being the favored brand & known far outside its borders. Wine lists, however, usually include a selection of imported South African & Portuguese wines.

At Casa Rex's a la carte restaurant you’ll find the aromas of classic Mozambican & Portuguese dishes in the air: prawns cooked with lemon and garlic butter, the spicy & smoked flavor of peri-peri chicken, the specially-prepared crayfish feast or the traditional creamy codfish or ‘gomes de sa’. If a light lunch (or hearty snack!) takes your fancy, there’s nothing better than a seasoned prego or steak roll.

A beach holiday conjures up images of relaxing in the sun with a cocktail in hand, & Casa Rex’s menu does not disappoint, offering traditional cocktails like pina coladas, caipirinhas & the essential Bloody Mary.

Mozambique’s gastronomy is as much a part of the whole holiday experience as the majestic palm trees, pristine beaches & spectacular sunsets over the ocean. A must for those who haven’t tried it yet!
