There was a time when ingredients like kanji (pez), local mango varieties, and so many simple, everyday foods were a natural part of Goan kitchens.
Somewhere along the way, we stopped noticing them.
In this episode of Tête-à-Tea with Odette, we sit down and talk about the ingredients we grew up with, the ones that quietly disappeared, and why they mattered more than we realised.
This isn’t just about food.
It’s about memory, culture, and everything that gets left behind without us even noticing.
The Goan Ingredients Slowly Disappearing from Our Kitchens
I walked into Greenr thinking this would be one of those “healthy but not really satisfying” meals.
But somewhere between the nachos, the sushi, and just sitting in that space… it didn’t feel like I was giving anything up.
This isn’t a typical review.
Just a quiet experience of trying something different.

Greenr Café in Panjim is one of those places that makes healthy eating feel effortless.
A vegetarian and vegan-friendly space where everything is fresh, light and full of flavour. From nachos and rice paper rolls to tacos, pizzas and pastas, there’s plenty to explore without feeling like you’re compromising on taste.
The vibe is calm and easy, perfect for slowing down, catching up, or even working for a bit.
Don’t miss their juices, smoothies and coffees, and definitely end with the Black Forest cake slice.

Some meals are not about speed.
They’re about time, technique and letting flavours unfold slowly.
Kesar Bagh in Assagao brings that old-school Awadhi style of cooking to Goa, where every dish feels rich, rooted and thoughtfully prepared.
From melt-in-the-mouth kakori kebabs to flavourful murgh chandi tikka and beautifully done jhinga dum nisha, the menu stays true to its essence.
The chicken dum biryani is fragrant and indulgent, though slightly high on kesar for my personal liking.
And the drinks, Raqeeq, Tarannum and Shifa, add their own layer of character to the experience.
It’s not loud, not rushed… just a quiet, royal kind of indulgence.

A closer look at the chillies that quietly define Goan cuisine 🌶️
From the vibrant red Harmal chillies that give colour without too much heat, to the fiery bird’s eye chillies that bring the punch, and the deeper, smokier dried varieties used in traditional curries — Goa’s chilli story is far more layered than just “spicy food.”
In this video, we explore how different chillies are used not just for heat, but for colour, flavour, and balance in Goan cooking.
Because in Goa… every chilli has a purpose.
