- Hi, I’m Vanessa, a passionate food nerd and home cook from Goa. I am constantly inspired by food- reading about, creating and eating it! Come share my expedition into the Goan kitchen as I Celebrate the journey of the community goan food embodies, the cultural identity it shapes and represents, and revisit the incredible memories it evokes. I aim to blog about anything that enhances our adventure in the kitchen and makes our taste buds smile: an ingredient, a libation, a recipe – anything that reminds us of our superb culinary legacy! I would love hearing from you lovely readers who take the time to tell me what they think of my foodie ranting, I hope you enjoy this Goan food trail and visit again soon. Viva Goa!
