A trip to Goa Bhavan

Many of you might have heard stories of Goa bhavan from us but i would like to tell about it again.

        This place was found by  Baba's  friend.We tried to find it with the help oof the address given but couldn't .When we found it finally it was in redevelopment stage.After some months I and baba went to that place on sunday to see whether it was open.It was open and we parceled  'paplet curry' home.It was the best I had eaten.It wasn't very spicy or wasn't an exotic dish with garnishing and all.It was just a plain nice goan curry with nice pieces of  Paplet in it.It was one of the best family meals I had.After that we used to parcel the same dish many times but never had eaten there.We used to go there tell our order and just used to sit there in that canteen.Baba used to chitchat with the owner and i used to watch TV while waiting.
        Then just three to four months ago I and Manava went with Chitnis family to Goa bhavan for lunch.
It was unplanned and as Aai's leg was just plastered then baba waited with her at home.Goa bhavan is just like a small canteen,though clean forget AC or any restaurentish ambience or waiters with proper uniform.but you will be greeted by the aromas which surround the canteen all the time.as soon as you would enter you would get hungry due to the aromas of the fish.With the curry we had nice bombil fry and some kolambi too.
It was a great meal.We still parcel the fish but would again like to go there and have a feast again.
      
Note: I would like to recommend this hotel to all fish lovers but would also like to tell the non eaters to not go there as they dont have anything veg in there canteen and going there wont ne fun for you

    We have to thank you for introducing us to this lovely place. Somehow we never got around to visit "Anantashram" while it was there, so at least we did not miss this one.

    That was wonderful meal we had & you have caught ambience of the place quite aptly in your piece.
