Goan Cuisine
“For the best Indian food in the world, go to the source. On India’s western coast, food, scenery, and history come together in the most delicious way.” Iain Ball, Bon Appetit magazine, February 2007
“… The tiny state lolls on India’s western coast: a lazy sweep of coconut palms, lush river valleys, and shimmering beaches caressed by the Arabian sea…. Concrete [gives] way to canopies of mango and palm trees …wide rivers and rolling fields”.
“Goa is a bewitching place, and home to a fusion cuisine that has been evolving for the past 500 years – ever since Portugal made the region an outpost….”
“Goa is a thrilling place to eat…. Goans announce their obsession with food as soon as they say hello”.
Goa is situated in the west coast of India, near Mumbai. This beautiful coastal state was a Portuguese settlement till the early 1960’s and so its cuisine is greatly influenced by that. Their food is unique in flavor and style and their Pork Vindaloo is renowned all over the world!
Pork Vindaloo (Vin, meaning Vinegar and Aloo meaning garlic in Portuguese) Pork, marinated in a blend of spices, garlic and vinegar and then slow cooked in its juices "... perhaps the most famous Indian-Portuguese fusion dish; tender, crimson pork vindaloo ... served with sannas--plump, fluffy cakes of fermented rice".
