We are Goans and here is what sets us apart

FISH OR NOTHING

We love our xit-kodi-nuste (fish-curry-rice). From sea to plate, our fish curry is unbeatable.

PEACE IS OUR PRIORITY

We love our peace and quiet just as much as we love our parties.

TIME TO RECHARGE

We love our siesta time, hence you’ll find our shops closed from 1 pm to 4 pm. At times, even a scooter seat is good as a bed.

LOVE YOU LORNA

Lip syncing to the Goa's singing sensation, Lorna Cordeiro, makes all our worries disappear. She is popularly known as the 'Nightingale of Goa'.

A SNACK FIX

We believe the way to your heart is through your stomach and cutlet pao is that food, an evening snack, which we love from our hearts.

FAITH CALLS

We are deeply rooted in tradition, irrespective of our faiths. No matter the religion, all our festivals are celebrated with reverence and gusto.
