Hi there ladies!

I am from Jo'burg South Africa and have only been here for 3 months.  I am in dire need of some girl friends (and someone to drink wine) with so I am taking it upon myself to attempt at starting a dinner club! 

Would anyone be interested in this - we could do weekly or bi-weekly and try out some spots around the island.

Hope to meet you soon!

I will be there in March and totally keen.... eat out in CT all the time and will be missing all my girl friends.
Where are you living ?

Esmarie

I am in Floreal (which, incidentally has a great wine shop!), work in Port Louis but I travel a lot around the island looking for coffee and cuisine :D

I will be in Mauritius in February maybe see you next year!

Am moving next month .. from SA, and I know I'll need wine 😂😂🙈🍷

Esmarie

Great. Please do let me know when you have arrived! Safe travels. Xx

Esmarie

Oh excellent!! Our club is coming along nicely!! Let me know when you are here. I will be so glad to meet you! Yay!

Sounds like a great idea. I work in Ebene, live in Black River so if you want to try the Flying Dodo at Bagatelle one week night that would be good for me and is nice and central.

I love wine, good idea! I live in Tamarin since 2 weeks. **

Hi   what age group you are looking for

KirstiB

This sounds like fun! I live in Curepipe and could do with some 'girly talk'. I am however 3 months pregnant, so no wine for the moment, but I can stare enviously whilst you drink :)

(I also hail from South Africa, Durban to be exact!)

I am following this post as I plan to be there mid-year next year and this sounds like a great idea!

Cara Kahn

We need to somehow create a group and try and meet up at last once a month. Would be amazing. I will only be there March next year but clearly so many of us moving.
We all experiencing the same stuff at the moment and some have been through it.
Bring on the island life.

Since there's a meet up in the Henessey next week why don't we try to go and then arrange something

Esmarie

I agree.

Can those interested send me their numbers by e-mail?  I'll create a Whatsapp Group where we can make arrangements? 

My e-mail address is ***

Hi!
It really doesn't matter.  I am 33, but I am sure there are people of all ages who would like to join :)

Esmarie

Actually, perhaps to make it easier, I'll send everyone here a private message with my nr.  If you could send me a WhatsApp with your name I'll save you and create a group.  Any new members wanting to join, drop me a mail on *** with your name and number (I am not handing out my phone number on here for obvious reasons. LOL) and I'll add you :)

Hi, I moved to Mauritius a week ago currently staying in flic en flac but moving to grand baie from January. My girlfriend has been here since October and is going a little crazy stuck with just male company. Would be great if she could join in on any events you guys are planning? She is 6 months pregnant so won't be drinking any wine but would be nice for her to get out the house a bit and meet some other people.

Cara Kahn

We are meeting on Saturday evening at a place in Tamarin

Hi we also have a coffee meet up in flic en flac every Friday morning from 10.30 at Tidez cafe on the beach front please join us.

Hello ladies

I am new to Mauritius since couple of months now and I would love to dine and talk over a good glass of wine or juice for the pregnant ladies around here, congrats by the way!

Living in Grand Baie, but I have no problem taking my car to meet up somewhere in Port Louis for example.

I will join the Facebook group!

Hope to see you ladies soon.
