SHOPPING AT GOA

Goa, one of the best countries to buy “Cashew Nuts” is available in all flavours, spicy, salty, colored, coated with chick flour etc. So buy fresh Goan cashews as much as you can carry, the best place to shop cashews would be around the main Panaji City but you can also try on the industries for wholesale prices. The Royal Kajuwala in Panaji, Ajanta Industries in Ponda, Saima Agro Industry in Usgao and and Zantyes Cashew Nuts in Panaji are some places that you could look at.

Spices

Yes, you read it right Kerala is not only the place to get spices; Goa on the Malabar Cost of India is also the land which grows all kind of “Spices”. So, if you are in Goa don’t forget to explore some of the spice farms which offer guided tours and range of aromatic spices from Cardamom, Cinnamon, Black Pepper, Cloves to the fresh icing on the cake which is little cheaper that you don’t get anywhere.

Feni or Cashew Feni

“Feni”, famous country liquor made from both coconut and cashew is one of the most famous things to buy in Goa! It is immensely intoxicating, long shelf life and is used in cocktails or mixed with cola, tonic water and lemonade. A bottle of Fenne is easily available at INR 100 at any liquor shop, so if you want to gift some drink to your drunkard friend or host the next party at home, must buy a bottle of Feni and let enjoy everyone with a sip of the Goan spirit.

HANDICRAFTS

Your visit to Goa will be very useful and memorable if you buy few “Handicrafts” from here. Goa which boosts for its quality silk, exquisite carpets, papier-mâché work, bronze work sell many interesting trinkets, sea shells show pieces and creative artwork of the locals at the beach markets which make great reminder. So, go, buy beautiful handicrafts but be sure you bargain well; as these beach markets normally charge unreasonable rates from the common.

MUSIC
