Village Tour and Goan Portuguese Fusion Meal with a Local

The experience takes place in Kim's home in Orlim Village, which is a lovely rural village in South Goa. On arrival you will be greeted with fresh coconut water straight from their tree in the garden or fresh lime juice. Kim will then share more about her passion for food and cooking. She enjoys experimenting with all kinds of cuisines and will explain to you how Goan food has a Hindu Saraswat and Catholic Portuguese influence. Later, join Kim for a short walk around the village, where you will visit a 450 year-old church, a handloom house where they make kunbi saris and shawls and you may even spot a few migratory birds. Then return back to Kim’s house to share a Goan Portuguese meal. You’re free to explore the garden which has a large selection of spices and fruit trees - banana, pineapple, papaya and bimli or you can join Kim in the kitchen while she adds finishing touches to the meal or you can just relax and do some bird watching. Your meal will be a collection of Goan-Portuguese fusion cuisine prepared using ingredients locally sourced or mostly homegrown.
