Hey foodies! I mentioned at the start of the year that I’m on a mission to try out as many restaurants in Goa as humanly possible, given the amount of shuttling I do between Goa and other cities. And while I blogged about some new cuisines that have made it…

Who doesn’t love a restaurant that lets you dine under the sky? A hint of sunshine, gentle breeze, the sound of a fountain – it really brings on those vacay vibes. So does Pondicherry, for that matter, and it’s here that I found a lot of courtyard restaurants sprinkled around…
