Time to start our new thread for the coming season.

Those who are out there already- it would be handy if you could let us know which ones are up and running now and also when the others open. I know a couple of members are already on the final few days of their countdown.
Our thread for last season can be seen here

Yes the season is about to start and the restaurant owners are painting their places, seen lots of thatching going down to the beach.

My favourite place to eat is Floyds, (the original one opposite the elephant shop) the food is better than most and a good variation of British and Indian food, the staff have to be the most obliging people in India running on errands ,arranging car scooter hire, Oh yes and good waiters.

My favourite meal is chicken or beef chilli fry, never been able to finish one yet at Rs130 not to spicy and lots of meat, followed by lobster at Rs900/1000, I can't eat lobster that often.

Angel Heart in Arpora, curries on the way to calangute (right turning past palmarina) travelbar opposite takkar ice factory in calangute,they do lovely baguettes.
place to avoid is the Blue whale restaurant( next to water park used to be 6 pack) in arpora, service and food not good.

We like Rising Waves in candolim, similar menu to the Bisto but slightly cheaper.
You need to book if you like to eat later in the evening but can usually get a table around 7pm. :cheers

Floyds Hut is great - we ate there loads!! Beef chilli fry mmmmmmmmmmm!! Oh and I agree about the Chicken Tikka! We haven't had one bad meal there - the starters came up like main courses - so beware very large portions!!

Oh Bob!! We aren't much help here are we? Obviously I don't know which way you will be coming from, but the best way I can describe it is, if you stand at the top of beach road turn right, pass newtons on your left and ...... and just keep walking for 5 mins and it should be on your right hand side!!

:think

I hope that's right anyway!!

Re: RESTAURANTS (North Goa) - recommendations and Q&As 2008/2009

The Flloyds (Flloyds Hut) I described was definitely in Candolim last season - heading towards Casa Sea Shell away from Beach Road......Or maybe I had one too many G&T's? :duh

Re: RESTAURANTS (North Goa) - recommendations and Q&As 2008/2009

you lot argue amongst your selves, when you come to a conclusion that may come close to giving me the correct location of "FLOYDS", perhaps you could get back to me.
for myself, i'm off to have a nervous breakdown. i think i deserve it after all this, no don't try to stop me, i'm determined i'm going to get SOMETHING out of this. :yikes
