A welcome break from the run-of-the-mill Indian curry house, Bukhara is run by a team of French-speaking Indian chefs who hail from Mauritius. The island's mixed colonial past has resulted in an incredibly diverse cuisine - a hotchpotch of Indian, Creole, Chinese and European. It's the Indian component that features most strongly here, with curry leaf and coconut milk perfuming many of the dishes, but hints of rustic Creole spice throughout the menu make dining at Bukhara a unique proposition. For a true Mauritian experience, start with the crab cakes; zucchini flowers stuffed with crab meat and laced with sprightly Creole spices, and squid marinated with black pepper, mustard seeds and toasted cumin. Mains range from a curry of goat to the French-inspired duck canelle rouge, simmered in five spice, red wine and orange then sauteed with tomato, olives, garlic and thyme. Diners after a more conventional Indian experience will be pleased with their good renditions of butter chicken and seafood masala, and Indian sweets such as chai ice-cream. It's modestly priced too, which in this part of Sydney is a breath of fresh air.
Taste of the Mauritian Sega (Pronounced Saygah). The Sega is a dance which originated from the ritual music of Madagascar and the mainland of Africa, and it is the Musical Expression of the Mauritian Way of Life: Joy, Carefree and Lively. Originally sung by men and women who had been sold as slaves but whose souls had remained sensitive to music, the Sega is nowadays a folksong which has integrated itself within the framework of our folklore.
