When we say Goa, you say party! Goa! Party! When you say Goa, we say food! Goan food is spicy, coconut-y and meat-y. Rich curries are served with rice for a burst of flavours in your mouth. The coconut soothes down the boil for a sweet balance. We just love the delicacies of the sea: sun, beach and shrimp. But does that mean we have to go all the way there for some of that Goa goodness? Not in Delhi we don’t. We bring Goa to you on a platter with the best Goan places in Delhi. Thank us later!
