Dewa & Sons Rose Hill
Dewa & Sons
A long-established dholl puri shop in Rose Hill, founded in the 1960s by a vendor cycling through the streets. Its name has become almost synonymous with dholl puri.
Located in central Rose Hill, this is one of Mauritius's best-known dholl puri shops. It started in the 1960s with a vendor cycling from door to door, and there are now several branches on the island. A serving is two flatbreads filled with ground yellow split peas, accompanied by potato or dried pea curry, tomato sauce, pickles and chili paste. Office workers, students and families all come here. Service is quick, prices are very low, and no reservations are needed. It often sells out and closes early, so arriving early is recommended. Reviews are mixed, with some finding it a little dry.
Opening hours
About 08:00–15:00; hours vary by day; closes when sold out
