At first I thought the mountaintop restaurant was just a gimmick, but when I got there I realized, damn, it instantly killed all the scenery of the morning. The legendary millionaire salad is the most distinctive dish in Mauritius. The reason why it is called millionaire salad is because it is made from the heart of the local palm tree. This kind of palm takes five years to grow, and only the heart of the tree can be eaten. This one tree is enough for eight people. The original production is very small. It is a delicacy on the table. Of course, it is also very expensive. People say that only millionaires can afford it. This is the origin of its name. It tastes sweet, a little bit like bamboo shoots, but not entirely. In short... It's delicious, you can't get it anywhere else. The taste of venison is a bit like beef, but it is more tender and more flavorful than beef. There is nothing to say about beef, it is just an ordinary steak, and the taste is quite satisfactory.

    There are two main dishes: chicken rice and fish rice. I ordered fish rice. The taste is average, comparable to airplane food. This dish is the signature dish of the mountaintop restaurant, the millionaire salad. The white one is palm, which is said to take seven years to grow and then be made into a dish, so it is very precious.

    The texture of the palm tree core is quite similar to bamboo shoots, a little sweet and a little crisp. With salad dressing and lemon seasoning, the taste is moderately sweet and sour, with a refreshing aftertaste. For lunch, I ordered fish and my husband ordered venison. I personally think the fish is very tender and delicious; the venison is more chewy.

    Millionaire salad is the most distinctive dish in Mauritius. It is called millionaire salad because it is made from the heart of the local palm tree. It takes five years for this kind of palm to grow, and only the heart of the tree is edible. This tree is enough for eight people. The original yield was very small. It was a delicacy on the table. Of course, it was also very expensive. People said that only millionaires could afford it. This is the origin of its name. The staple food is meat - chicken, beef or venison. The chicken is grilled on skewers and tastes pretty good; the beef ordered by my husband is said to have a little more tendons and is a bit difficult to eat, so it is not recommended; the group members who went with me had some venison, and those who like to try new things can try it~ The legendary millionaire salad tastes a bit like tender bamboo shoots. Some people think it is tasteless, but I think it is very refreshing and I like it~

    Most of us come for millionaire salads. The so-called millionaire salad is made from palm heart, because a palm tree can only make four such salads, so only the real rich can enjoy it. Personally feel that the millionaire salad tastes good. The core of the palm tree tastes like a cockroach, a little sweet, a little crisp, plus salad dressing and lemon seasoning, the taste is moderately sweet and sour, and the aftertaste is refreshing. I ordered fish for lunch, my husband ordered venison, personally feel that the fish is very tender, the taste is very delicious; venison is more vigorous.
