9 Food Trucks! Around in Goa

FOUND on the streets from London to La Paz, in India, from New Delhi to Kochi and Ahmedabad to Kolkata, and everywhere in between, these plates are served at street prices, with no prerequisites of booking or dress code, they cater to connoisseurs who are more interested in taste than the formal trappings of restaurant life. Fun, local and affordable, they are also an easy way for the gourmands to sample delicacies from the other side of the world, and for visitors to get involved in the region’s food scene.

The food trucks in Goa offer appetizing comfort food of varied cuisines, local and global, and of exquisite quality. The food trucks adhere to the textbook nutritional diktats of eating fresh, local and seasonal. While the food truck scene is still heating up in the rest of the country, Goa has extensively embraced it and even given it a strong provincial twist. Here is a checklist of some of the best food trucks in Goa.

NORONHA’S CORNER AT ASSAGAO – ANJUNA CROSSING

A food truck decorated with animated cartoon characters may not seem a likely spot to grab traditional Goan fare, but the three brothers who manage Noronha’s Corner know the art of food. The menu is separated into four sections: beef, chicken, pork, and fish. This is not the place for vegetarians. If you can’t decide, the brothers are quick to suggest their favorites, including beef croquettes, Goan sausages, chicken cafreal, fish cutlets, and sorpatel. Everything is dynamite, and the prices are very reasonable. People from all walks of life, from teenagers to families, can be found on the line that forms as soon as the awning opens every evening around 7.30 p.m. However, given their popularity remember that if you reach very late, they often run out of various eats.
