There comes a moment in every Goan’s regular life when the usual haunts begin to feel… well, too usual. The same faces. The same menus. The same cocktail that somehow still isn’t quite strong enough. And so, on a Saturday night, in the spirit of adventure (and a deep need for a place that wouldn’tContinue reading “Edge Bar, Alila Diwa Goa- Restaurant Review”

Kalliste, Colva, South Goa : Restaurant Review
Ah, South Goa on a Saturday night. These days, it’s not exactly the first place you’d be itching to hit up, is it? Not because of a shortage of good eateries, mind you—there are plenty of places dishing out delicious food—but because the energy just hasn’t been…let’s say, sizzling. However, exceptions can be made, andContinue reading “Kalliste, Colva, South Goa : Restaurant Review”
Planet Hollywood-South Goa: Review
Staying at Planet Hollywood, Goa, feels a bit like stepping into a well-curated Instagram feed—everything’s just a bit too perfect, and yet you can’t help but love it. The welcome was so warm I half-expected them to hand me a cozy blanket along with my room key. The check-in process was as painless as aContinue reading “Planet Hollywood-South Goa: Review”

Heritage Village Resort in Arossim has already given us Mama Miso – our all-time favourite for Asian cuisine.

We find ourselves browsing for a pub that carries the night in the same “spirits”. Guided by the visuals and reviews on Zomato, weContinue reading “SOGO Bar & Grill, Varca – South Goa : Restaurant Review”
Tora Shir – Restaurant Review
Tora Shir, translating to “raw mango slices,” is the latest iteration of a restaurant space that has undergone several transformations—first known as Firefly, then Tropica, and now Tora Shir. Each name has brought a different flavor to this South Goa locale, but this latest outing is a mix of hits and misses. The ambience atContinue reading “Tora Shir – Restaurant Review”
Fishka – Restaurant Review
Fishka is somewhat my best kind of review – a restaurant I wasn’t really planning to write about, but somehow it waylaid me. Hence, the lack of photos. Well, I’ve posted a couple but these are from previous visits. People will always compare its previous location to where it has settled these days, and there’sContinue reading “Fishka – Restaurant Review”
Martin’s Corner, Betalbatim- Restaurant Review
I recall a conversation with a client over a year ago. The client was in Goa and looking for a good place to dine. I recommended two or three restaurants in South Goa. Martin’s Corner wasn’t one of them. Typically, because I felt it suffered from over-visit. Every tourist has been there at least onceContinue reading “Martin’s Corner, Betalbatim- Restaurant Review”
