Goan food is extremely different from the food of other regions and this can be attributed to its rich and diverse cultural heritage.

A lot of Goan dishes like Prawn balchao and Sorpotel , Mutton Vindaloo, Chicken Cafreal, Pomfret rechado are some of the dishes that will dominate this food festival in Bonsouth.
Goan cuisine consists of regional foods popular in Goa, an Indian state located along India‘s west coast on the shore of the Arabian Sea. Rice, seafood, coconut, vegetables, meat, pork and local spices are some of the main ingredients in Goan cuisine. The area is located in a tropical climate, which means that spices and flavors are intense. Use of kokum is another distinct feature. Goan food is considered incomplete without fish. It is similar to Malvani or Konkani cuisine.
The cuisine of Goa is influenced by its Hindu origins, the four hundred years of Portuguese colonialisation and the Muslim rule that preceded the Portuguese. Many Catholic dishes are either similar to or variants of their Portuguese counterparts in both naming or their use of ingredients.
Apart from food array, Goan themed decoration such and Music will make your Goan experience much more prominent.
