Bazaruto-Can You Believe the Food?
June 13, 2023 - 1 minute readPortuguese flavors meet fresh African ingredients and modern cooking methods at Bazaruto Island Resort on Mozambique’s Indian Ocean coast.
Fresh-from-the-boat locally sourced seafood, as well as the indigenous herbs and spices from the resort’s own garden, infuse the complex layered flavors at the resort’s two restaurants.
Perched on a tree-shaded bluff overlooking the Mozambique Channel, Golfinho Restaurant offers flavors from around the world, morning and evening. Wake up to tantalizing aromas ranging from freshly brewed coffee to pastries hot from the oven. For dinner, themed evenings feature Mozambican, Portuguese and Mediterranean cuisine.
Among the menu highlights are Piri-Piri Baby Chicken served with roasted parsnip and tomato relish; Mozambican Tiger Prawns served with chili sauce and chips; and Beetroot Panna Cotta with honeycomb, honey carrot puree and coconut sorbet.
There’s also Mozambique comfort foods like carne moida (minced meat), feijoa cozido (baked beans), batatas salteadas (sautéed potatoes), cogumelos salteados (sautéed mushrooms).
Down on the beach, Clube Naval serves casual fare for lunch or early dinner. In addition to pizza, pasta, burgers and salads, the breezy café offers large plates like grilled lobster or prawns, lamb chops and cashew chicken, mussels in white wine, catch of the day, and a seafood platter for two.
