If the taste of curry leaves and the rich aroma of steaming hot biryanis entices you and if that sounds like a perfect treat, you have every reason to visit the Biryani Festival at @tingerestaurant in Hotel Delmon in Panjim. The place is heaven for coastal food lovers. I actually waited for the fishing ban to end to go there. The Fish Koliwada (Chonok) was fresh and just melted in the mouth. The dish originates and is inspired from kitchens of the Kolis or the fishermen of the Maharashtra region. ⁣ What’s coastal food without a bit of Kerala and Mangalore in it? The Chicken Kerala pepper fry was so succulent perfect tinge of Spicy. The Prawns Ghee roast masala was beautifully aromatic but a bit on the sweeter side. Would have preferred it a bit spicy. Went well with Aapams tho. Last but not the least the Biryani’s were much better than my expectations. Each portion serves 2-3 people. The Chicken Goli Biryani is basically Chicken meat balls cooked with the Biryani instead of Chicken pieces. The Salan that came with it was different from anything I’ve ever tried. The Kashmiri Mutton Biryani was loaded and more on the wetter side, just how I like my Biryani - Wet 💦 😂 Every dish is worth its price interms of quality and quantity. So head in to @tingerestaurant and enjoy the delicious Biryanis & coastal cuisine.

Absolutely Loved their food. Even though I’ve been here before for non-veg, visited specifically this time because family wanted vegetarian food. We tried the Kerala Pepper Fry paneer and Veg Chettinad with Appam and Malabar paratha. This was one of the best vegetarian food I’ve had in panjim. They do really excellent food and the place has a good ambience and service. Highly recommended.
