Tangy affair

My first Goan food experience was in 2006 in Goa . If you ever go to Goa , for eating I would recommend  "Viva Panjim" in Panaji (Panjim ) . It is in Fontainhas. It is a small and cozy room; you can smell prawns , , garlic  lobsters and other sea fish. We had ordered for Solkadi {a dish prepared with coconut milk , crushed Kokum  garlic and chopped chillies}. We had ordered for Bombil with extra Recheiado [red Goan masala]. The waiter had recommended us to take Bhakri [a thick bread made of dry shrimps] as it would go well. My mother liked the Sturgeon fish sauteed in butter the best.  Soup of clams , mussels and lobsters were among my father's favourites.  It was dessert time now , we had ordered foe the one and only dessert Goa is famous for,   Bibinca a delectable sweet made of coconut milk , milk , egg yolk , honey , pure ghee , it is done in rich layers. My father ordered for some real Port Wine. Viva Panjim is run by Linda D' Souza. Over all my Goan food experience was great!
