South India: Goa: Auntie Maria's Coffee Shop

Auntie Maria's Coffee Shop
Panajim, South Goa

After quite a bit of walking, we ducked into this coffee shop for some refreshments and some good ol' ac. Auntie Maria's is in the ground floor of one of the fancy hotels in the center of Panajim.



Goan mutton potato puff. DJKung felt that it tasted quite generic.

Chocolate walnut pie. The filling was nutty and chocolatey, but the crust could use more work.

I do recall that this place made excellent coffee, which was definitely Nescafe in flavor.It was strong and nutty, almost like it was freshly brewed. I wonder how they were able to make it that way.

Across the street from Auntie Maria's was a storefront that specialized in local sweets and snacks. It was quite mobbed. We promised ourselves that we would return the next day and pick out some snacks, but unfortunately, did not make it back.
