Jean-Noël L'Aimable is a firm fixture on the menu of the west coast’s burger lovers.
Jean-Noël and his wife have conquered the hearts (and taste buds!) of The West since they first opened Jeanno Burger in a small van on Flic-en-Flac beach in 2012.
An electrician by training, Jean-Noël worked in hotels and restaurants for years, until the passionate foodie, inspired by the home-made burgers made by a relative, decided to retrain. His dream? To introduce Mauritians to the flavours of this type of food.
Despite numerous challenges, Jean-Noël continued to fine-tune his project, bringing a personal touch to each recipe – notably through the creation of his own sauces. Eventually, he opened his caravan, and quickly found success!
Always varied and full of flavour, his menu now extends beyond burgers; hotdogs, sandwiches and paninis are always served with a smile! Jean-Noël uses fresh produce in all his dishes, ensuring that the quality of everything he creates is top-notch.
Jean-Noël's van has become more and more popular over the years, drawing numerous visitors, as well as local residents, from Tuesday to Sunday.
Flic-en-Flac village, with its pretty beach and varied shops, holds a special place in Jean-Noël’s heart. His next goal? Buying a property and living there full-time!
