Badam Milk: The Recipe for Success of a Family Business Meeting with a Father and Son: A Story of Tradition and Passion Ismaël Noormamode, 64, and his son Ridwan, 26, have been perpetuating the legacy of Tabagie Islamic. Since 1980, this family business, located at 80 Sir Edgard Laurent in Port-Louis, has been a must-visit address. One day, during Ramadan, Ismaël's mother prepared badam milk for the family. Ismaël had the idea of offering it in the shop. It was an immediate success. Since then, this drink has become the specialty of the tabagie, accompanied by crystallized fruit, alouda, falouda, grated ice cubes and various homemade syrups such as strawberry or ginger. Ismaël, who lives in Morcellement Goolamally, Le Hochet, Terre Rouge, is deeply grateful to his parents, who supported him and instilled in him essential values. “I owe them everything,” he confides, encouraging everyone to honour their parents while they are still alive. Today, Ridwan, who grew up behind the counter from the age of 8, is taking over with dreams of expansion. Father and son share their passion for this profession and invite young people to preserve family businesses. Director: Shivam Dhushun Ramalingapillay
