After all these years, now is when we have a thread like this ??? Wonder why this was never asked before ?

I have a big favorite in Anjuna, the place which has live crabs in a tank. But now forgot the name. Shall dig out and update soon.

thanks wafc!

yeah sudheer ive been thinking the same thing! also i wonder why the times of india/hindustan times dont do a 'guide to shack food in goa/guide to restaurants in goa', give that they do a similar thing in delhi/mumbai.

c'mon ppl lets have some feedback? surely loads of you must have really like some of the shacks?

cheers

As a 'Foodie' you are in for a treat. The food is absolutely fantastic. Ensure you try Xacuti and the local dessert delicacy, Benebica, wonderful!!

mav_e_rick · Nov 23rd, 2005, 22:07

thx for the food tips...appreciated :-)

was reading bout bebenica...sticky and soooo sweet? wonder if its safe to have them pork sausages? I know for a fact that eating pork in india can be dicey unless one is sure if the animals have been farm bred and suitably processed.. I'm hoping I can resist em if they aren't properly processed though!

55 days to go...seems so long

Goan sausages vary from the mildly spicey to very hot. Unfortunately we tried the very hot -- won't be having them again. Strange though, they are not on the menu in any of the shacks as they aren't allowed to be cooked on the beach.

Goan sausages are akin to chorizo a spanish sausage I love em!! The spicier the better

mav_e_rick · Nov 23rd, 2005, 22:39

love chorizos too...only concern was the quality, but i guess if everyone eats em and have no complaints...must be fine!
