For many, Maldives is the perfect destination for a beach vacation. However, while many focus on the pristine beaches of the Maldives they don’t think about the unique dining experiences this country offers. Thus, that is where this article comes in.
Maldivian Cuisine
While one would have no difficulty finding international cuisine in Maldives Restaurants, it is recommended that they also try the local cuisine. This tends to be typically focused on smoked fish and coconuts. An iconic breakfast of the Maldives is Mashuni, which is made with smoked fish and grated coconut. This is generally eaten together with a flatbread. Furthermore, there are many seafood dishes that are absolutely delectable when prepared using local flavours.
Dining Under the Stars
If vacationing in the Maldives with a significant other, one of the most romantic experiences would be to dine under the stars. This would be an intimate and memorable experience as you would be secluded away from the crowd. Furthermore, dining near the ocean is an experience in itself, especially in the Maldives. Therefore if staying at a property such as the Dhigali Maldives, make sure to talk to the staff to arrange such an experience.
Underwater Dining
When exploring authentic Maldivian dining experiences, the most unique dining experience one can embark on is dining underwater. That is because whilst enjoying culinary delights one can observe marine life passing them by. Having an appetizer whilst a shark swims past you can definitely be an unforgettable experience.
Underwater Wine Tasting
Maldives takes unique experiences to another level, one way they have achieved this is by housing the world’s first underwater wine cellar. By storing wine in this underwater cellar, they have managed to change the taste of wine. While the change in taste is subtle, it is believed that storing the bottle for a month underwater is equal to ageing to 5 years.
