Rio Grande
A casual all-day restaurant in Hulhumalé with a wide international menu. Breakfasts range from English to Maldivian and Belgian waffles, while later dishes take in fried calamari, sriracha shrimp, burgers and shawarma rolls, plus mains such as chicken biriyani and chicken cordon bleu. Little independent feedback is available, so consistency is hard to gauge.
