Close to Moka and right by the M1 motorway between the airport and Port Louis, the Bagatelle Mall has international brand names, a good food court and plenty of parking. Unless you're in need of retail therapy – this mall could be anywhere in the world – the main reasons to visit are Mauritius' first craft brewery and a good bookshop.
