Edit – This restaurant has permanently closed. Mibonasa only opened a month ago, but its reputation has been burnished by the bling-bling reviews on zomato by food lovers from Navi Mumbai. Located on Palm Beach Road, the restaurant is growing in popularity for serving South East Asian food that’s as…

If you ever want to eat the best seafood in Goa, take my advice. You have to step away from the seashore – away from the beach shacks offering assembly line type food at exorbitant prices. Head inland to the eateries that are located near the fields, with tiled roofs…

Edit – This restaurant has permanently closed down. I’m sure everyone has visited a really hyped up restaurant, only to be thoroughly disappointed. Sometimes it’s the food, sometimes it’s the service, sometimes it’s the ambiance.And sometime’s it’s all three. Sadly, ‘By the Way’ on Pune’s Fergusson Road was one such…
