Overview

This food walk in Panjim is a deep dive into the essence of Goan cuisine, a delightful fusion of Portuguese influence and lively Indian spices, led by local experts who are intimately familiar with these tastes.

We avoid the common tourist spots and guide you to hidden treasures, family-owned restaurants, and local favorites where genuine Goans dine.

Uncover dishes that are absent from typical restaurant menus – distinctive Goan snacks, traditional desserts, and refreshing local drinks.

Wander through the charming streets of Panjim, appreciate the Indo-Portuguese architecture, and listen to captivating stories that animate the city and its culinary offerings.
