Nolan Speaks

3.7 /5

Back in ancient times, the Portuguese called Goa - Golden Goa as it was a link to the outside world - the main port for activity. Welcome to the Bohemian area called 'Al Fama' transporting the diners to that mythical place. The Alfama town square in Lisbon is the inspiration for the restaurant. The unique ambience of this intimate restaurant has romantic balconies and alcoves for musicians to serenade guests during a candle-lit dinner. A replica of the original town, right to the twinkling stars embedded in the ceiling overhead right here in Goa. A must-try is one of the signature dishes - Pan Fried Tiger Prawns served with Amaranth, Mashed Potatoes and Peri-Peri Chilli sauce. Brought in by the Portuguese from Mozambique its spiced flavours still titillate the taste buds. Move on to the Oven Roasted Rack of Lamb with Celery Mint Croquette, Pickled Tomato, Wilted Spinach and Vindaloo Sauce. Let your choice of desserts lie in the Saffron Spiced Panna Cotta with Milk Dumplings, one of the many preparations the chefs are willing to trade from their kitchens.
