Goan Cuisine

Like the state itself, Goan food is filled with loads of flavours and is on the go-to list of every foodie. The Goan people’s love for coconut, smoky, spicy and pungent flavours is visible in almost all of their dishes. This extraordinary taste variation can be attributed to its rich and diverse cultural heritage.

The uniqueness of this cuisine is traced to its Portuguese ancestry. Till date, despite the ample availability of modern appliances, locals prefer cooking in clay pots or firewood, because it lends the distinct smoky flavour to the food. The mouth-watering Konkani veggie treats are just as popular as the non vegetarian fare. Go down the culinary roads of Goa and Dishcover the tradition of taste with an array of dishes like Vegetable Xacuti, Goan Mushroom Pulao, Shepeche Polle, Eggless Goan Filo and more.
