The
menu, an innovation in itself is pleasantly handwritten on a cooking
vessel lid, and as Chef Fernando explains has become a collector’s item
with many disappearing unnoticed. But that doesn’t upset him as the
smile on his face depicts it all - a calm disposition.
The restaurant "A la carte" menu
which has a vast variety of seafood specialities caters exclusively
to Goan food such as Caldeirada, Caldinho, Panados, Rolados, Xacutis,
Vindalhos, Cafreal, Recheiados, Feijoada, Balchao, Ambot-tik, Rosachi
Codi, Moongancheo Ganteo, Hotcottem, Sukem, Chouli Ros, besides
a large number of appetizing snacks, soups and salads including the
famous Kishmur, yet Chef Fernando well versed as he is in culinary
expertise, is not averse to prepare Chinese, Indian or Continental dishes
for special occasions and parties.
This restaurant is probably among the very few eating houses, that
serves freshly made sannas with sorpotel and bakes the great
dessert "Bolo Sansrival" which is practically non-existent
in Goa anymore.
A mention has to be definitely made of Nostalgia’s ever willing and
courteous waiters attired in the Kumbi Saree cloth Kurta Pyjama,
and the music which are recordings by Goan artists. During the peak
season from November, the entertainment is enhanced with live performances
atleast thrice a week by famous Goan musicians and stage artists.
