What with Goan and Portuguese food so popular in the city, this restaurant has got it just right with its menu, décor and general feel and experience. Home-made feni for those who would like to try and a crusty bombil fry for all those worshippers of Bombay duck. Another recommendation we have is the prawn loncha that is simple superb - achari succulent and perfect with the feni. How much: A meal for two without the alcohol will cost you about Rs 600 but they also have an exhaustive thhali that comes at a slightly expensive Rs 400. This one is for lunch only. We think being right in the heart of Town, near Fountain makes it a little pricey but depending on what mood you are in, this place is easily value for money. Step in: Very earthy, very Goa. Colourful walls, neat crockery and karaoke as well as great atmosphere make this place rather comfortable. Its cosy yet chic, class without being intimidating and has a sort of fun buzz about it. But because its still new, functioning seems a little awkward. Trivia: Owned by AD Singh (of Olive) and Meldan D Cunha, this place actually has recipes that Meldans mother makes. Live bands and karaoke nights once a week are an attraction, especially as so few places offer the latter any more. But whats most interesting is that if you are going to do the karaoke thing, then you have to stand on your table and perform. Lets see you take up Soul Fry Casa on that! But what you can take up the owners on, if you want, is their claim - The food and ambience can be experienced either at Dona Maria Ethereldas house in Altinho Panjim or you come to Soul Fry Casa. Soul Fry Casa is at Currimji Building, MG Road, Fort. Ph: 22671421. Cip
