What You’ll Experience

Walk into the rustic settings of a Goan bakery to experience a baking session in progress. It’s a mix of many different cultures, pao making is one of the arts brought to Goa by Portuguese and now it rests at the core of Goa’s culinary scene. Immerse yourself in an authentic Goan experience as you venture into a traditional mud bakery in Majorda. See, experience and and make your own pao/bread, ready to be placed in a traditional oven. Take a deep breath and let the aroma of the baking bread, and burning wood fill up your senses. Then make way for freshly-baked bread hot out of the oven. Watch the steam rise as you break a piece of the piping hot pao and take in the sweet smell before you bite into the soft, spongy centre that swiftly melts in your mouth. That is what the Goan Bread Making Experience is all about.
