Goan Traditional Food and Drinks
The way to a person's heart is through his stomach. With our carefully curated Secret Food & Tavern Trail, we try to unearth something that people have long missed about Goa - its culinary delights and local favorites.
Make sure you get your taste buds ready as we serve some delicious Goan food/snacks for both Vegetarians and non-vegetarians! We snack on a variety of sweet, savory, and traditional Goan food items that are known only to the locals. You will be taken to the spots where these delicacies are best prepared in the capital city of Panjim. Not only will they keep you satisfied at the same time you will crave more. The names of the places as well as the dishes are to be disclosed only once you join us.
