What's up with Goa’s air; how does it manage to keep itself classic and contemporary at the same time? It’s the historical markers in food, architecture, art, community and culture that preserve a strong connection to its roots; but it’s also the way it creates space to grow into that makes everything about Goa so wholesome. Today, we focus on the food. Miguel’s in Goa, which serves up food and drink true to the Konkani-Portuguese cuisine, promises to plate heritage through innovation. The cocktail and petiscos bar will set up shop at Byculla’s Magazine St Kitchen for the weekend, offering the city a seven-course meal for vegetarians and non-vegetarians, with curated signature cocktail pairings that are inspired by the 1920s and ’30s, the golden era of mixology.
