But of a mixed bag, bit of a shame, but having visited De Candolim Deck Restaurant twice in the space of 3 days, I’ve had (food wise anyway) two radically different experiences. Visit 1 - summer salad and satay chicken skewers. No words other than AMAZING, sum it up. The salad at 250INR was a meal in itself, in fact i think as colourful, crunchy salads go (topped with peanuts and croutons) it was the best salad I’ve ever had. The chicken satay was gorgeous too, lovely pieces of tender white meat and a fantastic pot of hot satay sauce. Visit 2 - chicken Caesar salad and a side of fries. Oh dear, I really didn’t enjoy it. The Caesar was spoiled by limp lettuce, hard grey looking chicken pieces and a total overload of a sickly tasting sauce that looks like it had been squeezed out of a tube of processed stuff bought from a supermarket. Maybe not but I know a Caesar when I see (and taste) one and this was really not a good effort. I hate leaving food, but half of it was enough for me. Whilst the fries were ok, they looked great in fact, there were far too many of them and they were lukewarm. The service was impeccable both times, no complaints there at all, the atmosphere good, considering my visits were for lunch. Prices represent excellent value. I will visit again to see if the hit and miss experiences to date, make for a 5 ⭐️ food review or stay at 4.
