The location is very nice and is situated uphill. Approach road is steep. So it’s better to drive you car up to the front entrance ) but the place has a few car park slots. It also has a restaurant. While the place is good, the entrance ticket of SCR 175 per adult is very high

Very nice place to visit. The garden is huge and full of different plants for food or medicine. Everything is well marked and you can definitely see a lot of different flowers and fruits. Must see for everyone. I can also highly recommend the restaurant. The meal are delicious and the spicy tea is made with many different spices. It’s definitely something special. The owner is also verz friendly and welcoming. You can walk for about 1 to 2 h. If you are interested in botanic - bring more time.

Nice to spend a few hours, interresting to speak the lady who owns the place, the Fifth generation. A lot off medical plants and other fruits and herbs are in the garden with a paper description. The thing we didn't like were the big turtels in a small area. But she told us they belong for much generations to the property.

Very unique historical spot on the Mahé Island: a spice garden almost 150 years old still managed by the original family and helping the heritage of the island changes. The facilities shows how the Island Architecture changed and the garden is very well cared and absolutely interesting. We had lunch at the restaurant with Greta satisfaction: the creole kitchen offered is very fresh and good. Is also possible to start a couple of forest trails from the corners of the garden. Recommended spot.

Plenty of different plants, fruits, trees…, including tortoise. Amazing view of the bay. A directions to the place might be more clearly marked, because the garden is placed on the top of a very steep curvy hill. Our suggestion would be to include more spices/fruits/sth in the shop since the offer is pretty much limited.

If there is one place in Mahé you don't want to miss, it's Jardin Du Roi. Hiding on top of a very dodgy looking mountain road, climbing up you will wonder whether you are on the right road or not. Even getting on the parking plateau, you still won't be sure was the trip worth it. But wait. Once you start walking the paths up and down and around, you will understand what makes this place so special. Hundreds of treats and bushes and flowers, and giant tortoises and little anteaters and fruit bats, amazing views, and surely things you have never seen before. Simply amazing. Restaurant is not a fine dining place that's for sure and don't expect to stuff yourself as the portions are modest, but the food is delicious, and you will enjoy just chilling there with your drinks and something to keep your teeth busy. Take your time around the garden and enjoy

Such a wonderful place to go for tea and a quick bite of lunch (Takamaka rum and ice-cream crepe is a winner!). Take a little walk around the old plantation gardens and house. If about the lovely owner will happily tell you about the plantation and her family's history. Views are great on a good day but beware, the drive up the very steep narrow single lane road to the plantation can be an experience, especially in the driving rain!

Interesting place where you can see what fruits, spices and plants grow on the island. You get the map and sheet which says names of the plants & trees. Visited on Saturday, place was quiet. Entry was 175 rupees. Parking, restaurant and toilets on site. Visited in August 2023

The best garden, long family histories. U will get map with numbers and names. fruit trees, spices etc. See, feel, smell and even buy in the shop.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit here with so many interesting and beautiful trees and plants to see. The trek round was through jungle areas so decent footwear is advised Plants and trees are numbered and you are given a sheet which tells you what they are. There are also several information boards. There are a couple of enclosures with the giant tortoises in and a cage with cute bunnies and guinea pigs in which I was told was for children to pet! We were given a very friendly greeting and welcome when we arrived and chatted to the current owner. Our visit here was most enjoyable and great value for money.

Fantastic tropical garden. Very similar to the Eden project in Cornwall UK, but in a natural environment rather then under a biome. Highly recommended but try to avoid mid day heat as there is a lot of walking up and down the garden

(Translated by Google) Nice private botanical garden with lots of exotic plants. Well maintained. Admission prices are okay. You can also get culinary dishes there. Unfortunately, the prices for food and drinks are adjusted to guests who are probably brought here from cruises. But thanks to Corona, these guests won't be here at least until the end of 2021, but prices are still quite high. However, the garden is highly recommended, the now rare Coco de Mer can also be found here. (Original) Netter privater botanischer Garten mit vielen exotischen Pflanzen. Sehr gepflegt. Eintrittpreise sind in Ordnung. Man kann sich dort auch mit kulinarischen Speisen versorgen lassen. Leider sind die Preise für Essen und Getränke angepasst an Gäste, die wohl von Kreuzfahrten hier her gebracht werden. Doch dank Corona, gibt es diese Gäste mindestens bis Ende 2021 hier nicht, Preise aber sind dafür weiterhin recht hoch. Der Garten ist jedoch sehr empfehlenswert, die selten gewordene Coco de Mer ist hier auch zu finden ist.

(Translated by Google) Superb well-kept gardens where you learn a lot. Passionate owner and very friendly employees. Try to eat there, it's a bit expensive but really excellent. Allow 3 good hours if you eat there. (Original) Superbes jardins bien entretenus ou l on apprend beaucoup de choses. Propriétaire passionné et les employés très sympa. Essayez de manger sur place, c est un peu chère mais vraiment excellent. Prévoir 3 bonnes heures si vous mangez la bas.

Very nice gardens. Wonderful for family with children. Food is delicious. The lemongrass and lime tea is a must-try. The road that leads here seems as it may take you to the end of life and time. Bear on! It's worth it. Parking available at top. The museum House is also very nice.

Awesome place, you can find almost every tropical plant, spice and medicinal herb. One star down for closing restaurant kitchen too early : 16:15, sorry.

Very nice garden with a wide variety of plants. You can also see some old land turtles. Entry is about 10 Euros. You can reach it by food also from the coast if you are willing to walk about 30-40 Minutes and about 250 height meters.

Interesting place ,I've never seen before a plant of cinnamon ,pineapple or vanilla. So If You have the same You can visit this Garden. However I admit that plants should be labeled better with some information when each tree starts to bloom. Cafe in the garden has interesting menu. Very good lemonade with coconut and crepe with banana.

(Translated by Google) First off, I will report on a great and authentic restaurant. The service is nice, the food is delicious! It is worth having a good lunch on the mountain with a wonderful panoramic view! The botanical garden is also very cozy, the guided trail can be easily walked through without the guide of the garden. In a well-maintained small area you will find plenty of plants. Plus hummingbird, fruit bat, aldabra turtle, etc ... (Original) Elsőként a remek, és autentikus étteremről számolnék be. A kiszolgálás kedves, az ételek nagyon ízletesek! Érdemes a csodás panorámakilátás mellett, a hegyen enni egy jó ebédet! A botanikus kert szintén nagyon hangulatos, vezetés nélkül, a kert kiadványával is jól bejárható a tanösvény. Jól karbantartott, kis területen rengeteg növény megtalálható. Plusz kolibir, gyümölcsdenevér, aldabra teknős, stb...

(Translated by Google) If you use Google Maps, the correct location of the garden is displayed but a path that does not lead to it. Unfortunately, the signage is quite inconspicuous and reserved. From Anse Royal drive west along Les Canelles Rd until you see the "SPR Shopping" store on the left. Directly at the shop you turn left onto Sweet Escott Rd and then immediately right again towards "Ixora Villa" and "Kokogrove Chalets". You drive through the street to the end - even if it gets a bit steep. It ends in the parking lot by the garden. The garden is very nicely laid out and well signposted (as soon as you have found your way on the map). Entry is fine with 125 SRC. If you walk the entire circular route and you are interested in the plants, you will be through in one to two hours. Two things were very important to us: sun protection and mosquito repellent. There is a restaurant and a small souvenir shop right in the garden. Unfortunately, there is not really much selection of spices to buy here. Nevertheless, it is definitely worth paying a visit to the garden. (Original) Wer Google Maps verwendet bekommt zwar die richtige Location des Gartens angezeigt aber einen Weg der nicht dahin führt. Leider ist die Beschilderung ziemlich unauffällig und zurückhaltend gestaltet. Fahrt vom Anse Royal aus die Les Canelles Rd Richtung Westen entlang bis ihr auf der linken Seite den "SPR Shopping" Laden seht. Direkt am Laden fahrt ihr nach links auf die Sweet Escott Rd und dann gleich wieder rechts Richtung "Ixora Villa" und "Kokogrove Chalets". Die Straße fahrt ihr bis zum Ende durch - auch wenn es etwas steil wird. Sie endet auf dem Parkplatz am Garten. Der Garten ist sehr schön angelegt und auch gut beschildert (sobald man sich auf der Karte zurechtgefunden hat). Der Eintritt ist mit 125 SRC in Ordnung. Wenn man den gesamten Rundweg geht und sich etwas für die Pflanzen interessiert ist man in einer bis zwei Stunden durch. Zwei Dinge waren für uns sehr wichtig: Sonnenschutz und Mückenspray. Direkt im Garten gibt es ein Restaurant und einen kleinen Souvenir Shop. Wirklich viel Auswahl an Gewürzen gibt es hier leider nicht zu kaufen. Es lohnt sich auf jeden Fall trotzdem, dem Garten einen Besuch abzustatten.

Nice views from the top. Many tropical plants, good informational guide. Everething is clean. Restaurant is too expensive, better to bring the food with you. But special cocktail from the garden fruits is fantastic

This is a must visit if in the Seychelles. We stumbled across it looking for somewhere to have lunch. What a great surprise when came to this amazing garden with round a 100 different plants. You get given a map and guide to the plants as you walk round. It was fascinating to see all the different fruits and spices. They also have Coco de mer palms and giant tortoise. It is a long way up in the hills, so make sure you drive / get a lift

Two stars for the access road to the gardens. It is not easy to reach by own car. The driver in front of us got a flat tire on the way up. We decided to park the car before the last very steep uphill part, but there was only one spot available, which was taken... Seeing no other option but to leave the car one Km or so away and walk all the way up, we decided to leave as we had someone with reduced mobility in our company. Too bad.

Nice view, but quite don't know if for 1 entry is 100 ruppies the right price...

One of the experiences that you should not miss when in Mahé. Reaching here by car is possible but it’s a steep climb. Definitely can be done by car. Not expensive. The manager and owner are super sweet people. You’ll get to see spices and fruits naturally growing on trees that you have been eating.

(Translated by Google) Those who love nature should plan a visit here. Accessibility by car is catastrophic. (Original) Wer Natur liebt, sollte einen Besuch hier einplanen. Die Erreichbarkeit mit dem Auto ist katastrophal.

Very interesting trip learning about how so much vegetation and spices were brought to the island.

(Translated by Google) Great garden! If you are interested in the nature of the Seychelles, then it is Le Jardin Du Roi Spice Garden is definitely the first address. This wonderful and well-tended garden (landscape park) far exceeds the Mont Fleuri Botanical Gardens in Victoria. In addition to the many endemic plants, there are a variety of fruit and spice plants. Everything is well signposted and well explained using an overview map. The jungle path is particularly recommended. There are wonderful visual axes, enchanted paths and beautifully laid out ponds. In the restaurant you sit with a wonderful view of the landscape and are served very friendly. We will come over for dinner again. I hope it's as good as this facility. Two more things: 1. Getting there by car is quite adventurous, but shouldn't stop you from visiting. 2. The small souvenir shop is quite well sorted, but some are considerably overpriced. (A trip to the artist village "Village Artisanale" a few kilometers away is more worthwhile). (Original) Großartige Gartenanlage! Wenn man an der Natur der Seychellen interessiert ist, dann ist Le Jardin Du Roi Spice Garden mit Sicherheit die erste Adresse. Dieser wundervolle und gepflegte Garten (Landschaftspark) übertrifft um ein vielfaches den - Mont Fleuri Botanical Gardens- in Victoria. Neben den vielen endemischen Pflanzen findet man eine Vielzahl an Obst und Gewürzpflanzen. Alles sehr gut ausgeschildert und anhand einer Übersichtskarte gut erklärt. Besonders zu empfehlen ist der Urwaldpfad. Es gibt wunderbare Sichtachsen, verwunschene Pfade und schön angelegte Teiche. Im Restaurant sitzt man mit einem wunderbaren Blick über die Landschaft und wird sehr freundlich bedient. Zum Essen werden wir noch einmal extra vorbei kommen. Ich hoffe, dass es so gut ist wie diese Anlage. Noch zwei Dinge: 1. Die Anfahrt mit dem Auto ist recht abenteuerlich, sollte einen aber auf keinen Fall vom Besuch abhalten. 2. Der kleine Souvenir Shop ist zwar recht gut sortiert, einiges aber erheblich überteuert. (Da lohnt sich eher ein Ausflug ins Künstlerdorf "Village Artisanale" wenige Kilometer entfernt).

(Translated by Google) The restaurant is excellent, no need to pay entry to go there, with products that come from the site. But the bill is a bit expensive, 850 rupees for two, two dishes, two beers, two coffee. In addition, as indicated on other notices, turtles are hard to see in a slightly rotten and tiny enclosure. Located at the top of the coast. (Original) Le restaurant est excellent, pas besoin de payer l'entrée pour y aller, avec des produits qui viennent du site. Mais l'addition est un peu chère, 850 roupies pour deux, deux plats, deux bières, deux café. De plus comme indiqué sur d'autres avis les tortues font peine à voir dans un enclos un peu pourri et minuscules. Se situe tout en haut de la côte.

Beautiful

Beautiful gardens with loads of information on medicinal plants. I am a plant lover so for me it was a paradise.

Exotic garden full of spices. One can get a nice basic spice orientation there. The restaurant near it has a good creole food. Recommended

(Translated by Google) A superb garden, where tropical ornamental, food, medicinal plants, etc., grow in a heavenly setting. Do not forget the forest trail. The shop offers quality souvenirs at very reasonable prices. You have to ask yourself to taste fruit juices and eat: the flavors of the dishes are at the height of the place. Small clarification: the garden of spices wanted by Pierre Poivre in 1771 was not created in this place, but in Anse Royale, just below, not far from the beach and almost opposite the Souris island. Today it is private property. (Original) Un superbe jardin, où les plantes tropicales ornementales, alimentaires, médicinales, etc, poussent dans un cadre paradisiaque. Ne pas oublier le sentier en forêt. La boutique propose des souvenirs de qualité et à des prix tout à fait raisonnables. Il faut se poser pour déguster des jus de fruits et manger : les saveurs des plats sont à la hauteur du lieu. Petite précision : le jardin d'épices voulu par Pierre Poivre en 1771 n'a pas été créé en ce lieu, mais à Anse Royale, juste plus bas, non loin de la plage et presque en face de l'île Souris. C'est aujourd'hui, une propriété privée.

No guide in the garden, and for the price it should have been. It was very little information about the plants so we where only walking around looking at things we did not understand. Very hard to fint the way in the "garden routes". Animals did not have water and looked very lonely. I do not recommend this place before they do some changes. Hope they will start with a guide some day.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful garden with many plants and flowers. A sheet is provided with the names of plants that are identified by a number. Numbers are sometimes hard to find. The visit is paid 125 rupees. For that price the visit could be guided. (Original) Beau jardin avec de multiples plantes et fleurs. Une feuille est fournie avec le nom des plantes qui sont identifiables par un numéro. Les numéros sont parfois difficiles à trouver. La visite est payante 125 roupies. Pour ce prix la visite pourrait être guidée.

(Translated by Google) To get there on foot from Souris Island, I had a heat stroke .. the reception was very cold, I assumed it was The mistress of the place, because she was holding the cash register. , cold and not smiling. I asked her for the wifi code so that I could contact my friends in the hope that someone will come to pick me up. She refused because the code is private ... what a shame, because I particularly appreciate plants, the place is wonderful, but I was very disappointed with this welcome, so I will not go back! Be careful, it seems to be very expensive. (Original) Pour y être monté à pied depuis l’ile Souris , j’ai eu un coup de chaud.. l’accueil était très froid , j’ai supposé que c’était La maîtresse des lieux , car elle tenait la caisse .tres antipathique , froide et pas souriante .je lui ai demandé le code wifi afin de pouvoir contacter mes amis dans l’espoir que l’on viendra me récupérer.elle a refusé car le code est privé ... quel dommage , car j’apprecie Particulièrement les plantes , l’endroit est merveilleux , mais j’ai été très déçue par cet accueil.je n’y retournerai donc pas ! Attention , ça à l’air d'être Très cher .

Tasty local food (a bit expensive for the portions but worth it) it is extra fresh and savoury. The restaurant offers a good service in a gorgeous space (great view). (+) The garden is rich and instructive, ( - ) the local fauna being kept in small spaces is regrettable & depressing.

Nice hidden location with restaurant surrounded by nature with a good view. Good food and friendly staff. Walk through garden to discover...check the opening hours for the restaurant if you would like to eat there...

(Translated by Google) A very nicely landscaped garden. Point deduction because of the bad signage. For many, the sign is already missing or no longer legible. In addition, the mosquitoes were extreme. Also the price of 150 rupees per person is a bit high. We can't say anything about the restaurant (Original) Ein sehr schön angelegter Garten. Punkt Abzug wegen der schlechten Beschilderung. Bei vielen fehlt schon das Schild oder ist nicht mehr lesbar. Zudem waren die Mücken extrem. Auch der Preis von 150 Rupie pro Person ist etwas viel. Über das Restaurant können wir nichts sagen

Amazing gardens on top of a mountain, excellent walk with amazing views.The food is delicious. .

Nice personal experience here, where you can feel and see how the family used to live. There's a small house which is now converted to a museum. There are old furniture, photos, explanation of plants, amongst other things. The food is generally above average. It is on top of a hill, so naturally you have a nice view. The garden is impressive. Amazing how the family maintained this plot of land with the large variety of plants. Worth a visit to spend a slow evening looking at trees and plants. However, if not a nature lover, then maybe you can reconsider visiting.

Really nice place, worth visiting. Lot of plants, spices, herbs etc, even giant tortoise, and coco de mer trees. Map is quite hard to understand, but it is ok. Just keep going up the hill with car, or park it and walk. Around 1 hour duration to walk around the garden.

Beautiful place to relax. We tried the restaurant for lunch and the food was simply delicious that during our short stay in Mahe we crossed the island again just to have a meal there again and to enjoy the early evening in the peaceful surroundings 💕

(Translated by Google) Visit in November 2020: you can find all the exotic spices that come to mind as Europeans. The garden area is nice, but clearly laid out. The museum needs an overhaul.

(Translated by Google) Not that easy to find. It's easy to miss the signs on the street. The wrong route is displayed with navi via Google Maps. After the bridge, from the main road, you have to turn left before the ascent and the next right again. You can see a lot of plants. The plan you get is good. The signage could be renewed and the clarity is not optimal. But if you have some time, you can discover a lot. We were also shown plants that we could not find. It takes at least 2 hours. But can also spend significantly more time in the garden. (Original) Nicht ganz einfach zu finden. Die Schilder an der Straße übersieht man leicht. Mit navi über Google maps wird der falsche Weg angezeigt. Man muß nach der Brücke, von der Hauptstrasse, vor dem Anstieg links und die nächste wieder rechts. Man sieht sehr viele Pflanzen. Den Plan den man bekommt ist gut. Die Beschilderungen könnten erneuert werden und die Übersichtlichkeit ist nicht optimal. Aber wenn man etwas Zeit mitbringt, kann man viel entdecken. Uns wurden auch Pflanzen gezeigt die wir nicht gefunden haben. Man braucht mindestens 2h. Kann aber auch deutlich mehr Zeit im Garten verbringen.

(Translated by Google) A beautiful, lovingly cared for garden where you can admire a lot of plants. You get an overview table and a site plan and can assign most of the plants. The staff is very nice and helped us to find three trees that we couldn't find on our own. We recommend! (Original) Ein wunderschöner, mit viel Liebe gepflegter Garten, indem man sehr viele Pflanzen bewundern kann. Man bekommt eine Übersichtstabelle und einen Lageplan und kann damit die meisten Gewächse zuordnen. Das Personal ist sehr nett und hat uns geholfen noch drei Bäume zu finden, die wir alleine nicht gefunden haben. Sehr zu empfehlen!

(Translated by Google) The garden is not very big but it is very well organized. It has a multitude of exotic plants. I was in the morning and there were not many tourists. I liked the trail on the edge of the jungle. Worth a visit! I would come back anytime. (Original) Gradina nu este foarte mare dar este foarte bine organizată. Are o multitudine de plante exotice. Am fost dimineața și nu erau mulți turiști. Mi-a plăcut mult traseul pe la marginea junglei. Merită vizitată! M-aș reîntoarce oricând.

(Translated by Google) Nice experience, well worth it. It actually takes some practice to get there. The garden is beautiful, well-kept and the staff friendly. At the entrance you will receive a helpful booklet with an explanation of the numbered plants. It was exciting to e.g. Watch nutmegs, vanilla, cocoa or pepper grow on the tree / shrub. (Original) Schöne Erfahrung, es lohnt sich. Für die Zufahrt braucht es tatsächlich etwas Übung. Der Garten ist wunderschön, gepflegt und das Personal freundlich. Man erhält beim Eingang ein hilfreiches Heft mit Erklärung der nummerierten Pflanzen. Es war spannend, einmal z.B. Muskatnüsse, Vanille, Kakao oder Pfeffer am Baum/Strauch wachsen zu sehen.

A small talk with the owner is always interesting to get to know the Seychelles better! (Original) Äußerst interessantes Ausflugsziel! Lehrreich, super Ausblick, freundliche Leute!

(Translated by Google) Very great garden. Best when it's not so humid. Take plenty of water with you. Don't forget mosquito repellent. The owner is really nice. Told us a lot about her family. When and how she got to the Seychelles. You can't find the way with Google Maps. Then you get somewhere else. If you come from Anse Royal, after a while there is a shop on the left-hand side where the garden is signposted. Left in front of this shop. If you see signs to the Kot Man Ya Flower Garden, you are too far. The driveway to Spicegarden is a little steep. But to drive well. (Original) Sehr toller Garten. Am besten wenn es nicht so schwül ist. Viel Wasser mitnehmen. Mückenspray nicht vergessen. Die Besitzerin ist unheimlich nett. Hat uns viel von ihrer Familie erzählt. Wann und wie sie auf die Seychellen gekommenen ist. Mit Google Maps findet ihr den Weg nicht. Dann gelangt ihr woanders hin. Wenn ihr von der Anse Royal kommt, ist nach einer Zeit auf der linken Seite ein Shop wo der Garten ausgeschildert ist. Vor diesem Shop links rein. Wenn ihr Schilder zum Kot Man Ya Flower Garden seht, seid ihr zu weit. Die Auffahrt zum Spicegarden ist etwas steil. Aber gut zu fahren.

(Translated by Google) Well kept garden, products and cuisine is very good but the whole is very expensive ... In addition, I find it very unfortunate the colonialist and haughty attitude of the owner, she felt in a hurry to see us disappear us and our 3 year old daughter. Fortunately, one of the staff was more friendly to us. In short, you can miss this visit, Mahé has treasures that are more worth spending time there. (Original) Jardin bien tenu, les produits et la cuisine est de très bonne qualité mais l’ensemble est tres cher... De plus, je trouve très dommage l’attitude colonialiste et hautaine de la patronne, elle sentait pressé de nous voir disparaître nous et notre fille de 3 ans. Heureusement qu’une femme parmi l’ensemble du personnel était plus sympa avec nous. Bref, vous pouvez louper cette visite, Mahé détient des trésors qui valent plus le coup d’y passer du temps.

(Translated by Google) Super nice, but hard to get to (Original) Super schön, aber schwer zu erreichen

(Translated by Google) The welcome was not very friendly, the car ride is rather rock'n'roll because impossible to access this place in seconds with air conditioning.

(Original) L accueil n'a pas été très sympathique, la montée en voiture est plutôt rock'n'roll car impossible d'accéder à ce lieu en seconde avec la climatisation.

(Translated by Google) Very nice to see it takes an hour. (Original) Très beau à voir ça prend une petite heure.

Loved the food, the friendly service and the history behind this place.

What an unforgettable experience with amazing views And the old turtles are worth seeing

(Translated by Google) Were here on our 2nd Seychelles trip to visit. Why? The homemade ice cream with spices from the garden. A fantastic view over anse Royal as well as a lot worth seeing about nature are included here. (Original) Waren auch bei unserer 2. Seychellenreise hier zu Besuch. Warum? Das selbst gemachte Eis mit Gewürzen aus dem Garten. Ein traumhafter Ausblick über anse Royal sowie viel sehenswertes über die Natur gibt es hier mit dazu.

There was one big reason we came back to the Seychelles: the banana crepes at the Jardin du Roi restaurant. They are exquisite. Never has a crepe been made to such perfection, with a sauce that delicious. It’s a secret recipe from the owner of the restaurant, and one that no one could replicate. Outside of the restaurant, the Jardin du Roi has always been our favourite place in Seychelles; far outweighing even the beaches and the sea. It’s a magical garden of herbs and spices; flowers and fauna; trees, old and young, majestic and magnificent; a garden of secrets and pleasures. An old garden, with trees that tell stories of their seasons. Some ripe with fruits of every island variety; others with age-old roots intertwined like the fingers of old lovers. The Jardin Du Roi is the kind of garden we carry with us, long after we leave the Seychelles. Not unlike the mouthwatering banana crepes of Madame Georges. A gift to come back for. To add: despite the restaurant being closed for the National Day holiday, Madame Georges , upon hearing that the reason we were in the Seychelles, was my son’s birthday request for her banana crepe, managed to whip up two of her magical crepes for my kids. On the house. This is a lady who continues to imbibe the magical soul of her Jardin du Roi; it’s secrets and gifts flowing to all who seek its stories and pleasures.
