Maldives
Maldives, also referred to as the Maldives, is an island nation in the area of the Indian Ocean-Arab Sea, a cluster of 1,190 coral islands scattered on 26 large coral atolls, which lie between Minicoy Island (southernmost Lakshadweep, India ) and the Chagos Archipelago. The islands are in the Laccadive Sea, about 700 kilometers (430 miles) southwest of Sri Lanka and 400 km (250 miles) southwest of India.
For most of its history, the Maldives has had an independent policy, despite three instances in which it was governed by external forces. In the mid-16th century, the Maldives was dominated by the Portuguese Empire for fifteen years. In the mid-seventeenth century, the Dutch Empire (Malabar) dominated the Maldives for four months. Finally, in the late nineteenth century, on the brink of war, the Maldives became a British protectorate from 1887 until 1965. The Dutch referred to the islands as "Maldivische Eilanden" while the British anglicized the local name for the islands for the first time time as Maldives and later to Maldives. The islands gained independence from the British Empire in 1965 and became a republic in 1968 ruled by a president and an authoritarian government.

You can also find more elaborate dishes such as shrimp soup that is prepared with an onion stew to which are added the prawns cleaned, the broth of meat and a spoon of curry.
The tropical fruits are delicious as for example the coconut, bananas and mangoes.
Typical sweets are made with eggs and butter and have their origins in Dutch cuisine.
For drinking you can take the refreshing fruit juices, beer and any imported alcoholic beverage.
