Legend or history – the name Canacona is one of the versions that was derived from the word ‘Konkan’ which itself gets its abbreviation from the Sanskrit word Konvapuram. The Lalit has named its All Day Dining – Canacona; this very name connotes the local place. The design of this restaurant focus is on refurbished art and is strongly influenced by traditional Portuguese décor with a combination of traditional and modern. The interiors and ambience recoup local inspiration of Canacona which includes its art and culture. With the main meals breakfast, lunch and dinner being served with the flair (there is a buffet breakfast operational for in house guests), the menu for this 72-cover restaurant is an inspiration of world cuisine with a contemporary, fusion touch to the items.
For starters, try the Murgh Reshmi Kebab, marinated chicken morsels in yoghurt and spices or perhaps the Greek Feta and Grilled Pita Salad, light and refreshing with cucumber, olive and mild pepper in a roasted garlic vinaigrette.
With food being prepared in an open kitchen, keep a roving eye on your food being prepared as you sit in relax mode waiting for the mains. The Steamed Silver Pomfret with shitake, spring onion and fish sauce if your choice is Oriental or be desi with the Rogan-e-Nishat, lamb cooked with onion, tomato and whole spices. There is also a section that gives you pizzas with authentic toppings for a very light meal. End the experience with the New York Cheese Cake, it is the chef’s signature dessert or the old Indian favourite Bharwan Gulab Jamun. For further explanation it is fried cottage cheese and milk protein dumpling steeped into sugar syrup. Sophistication galore, Canacona is one of the only 24×7 venues, an elegant vibrant restaurant in that part of Goa.
