Expat favorite shops in the Maldives — share your own list

Dear all

Expat like me is really concern about the goods and services that I can get in the local market. Perhaps, we look for goods and services that you use to get from the country you have been.  As much as possible, we try to look for establishment/shops that can satisfy our everyday needs as an expat.  Once you find it? You will surely list them as your top priority shop.   We all know that we have different preferences, but sharing your idea might help the community in one way or the other.
