A welcoming family-run outfit in a picturesque Creole house complete with a courtyard garden, Chez Moustache serves authentic Creole specialities at honest prices. The food is grounded in island tradition, as testified by the wood-fired oven. The menu changes nightly, and includes only four or five mains. Bad point: long service. It's about 5km south of the 2007 lava flow.
