Unforgettable fruits salad in Goa, India.

Chalston Beach Resort restaurant.

After my visit in Goa I am making this fruits salad almost every day, at home. It is pretty simple: bananas, red melon, pineapple, mango and a touch of pomegranate and lime, to the end. The delicate flowers are taken by me from the resort’s garden and put them on the table for more visual pleasure, but we don’t have them in UK, so, it tastes great even without flowers, haha…

Bon appetite!

Ps: mine is without sugar, but you can put if you like.

:black_small_square:︎Petra_M (many thanks!) suggested yesterday to say a bit more about this place.

So, first of all, I will notice the excellent location: Chalston Beach Resort is on the beach. The restaurant has see view and, from breakfast to dinner, you can watch the sea - which for sea lovers, like me, it’s a spectacle.

Exquisite owners and team, probably the most gentle and friendly people I’ve ever seen. After 2 days they observed my habits and brought me certain drinks or foods without asking.

The big and well maintained garden has a shower and you can refresh surrounded by Bougainvillea flowers.

I made “friend” even a palm in a hot and rainy night (maybe sounds strange, but I had that feeling).

The food is excellent and I remember specially 2 dishes, probably because I have the pictures.

☆ I forgot the name of this dish, but maybe some people from India, here, may help me …It’s a tomatoes salad with garlic and herbs, sitting on “something” nice and crispy.

☆ Shrimps with chips and vegetables, and indian bread.

☆Vanilla and chocolate ice cream.

Beautiful

Peaceful

I am kind of “stuck”, @rizbab28 , but I don’t feel “stuck”, haha. The most exciting activity now is going to shopping, haha.

I live London, but at the moment I am on holiday for 2 weeks, in Aylesbury Vale, to visit my friends.

And, yes, I am waiting, with patience, to travel again.

Hi @LiliSol ,

It looks amazing and colorful, thanks for sharing!

Would you like to tell a bit more about the place? What else did you eat there?

I love fruits and can’t wait to have watermelon in the shop.

Thank you very much, @Petra_M ! :pray:

I am relatively new on Local Guides Connect, so, how would you suggest me to say more about the place: making changes to this post, or in a new post? I do have 1-2 more pictures of dishes there, but of dinner, so the lighting is not so good.

Best wishes!

With gratitude,

Hi @LiliSol ,

Thanks for asking!

The best practice is either to edit your post, add more text and photos, or you can add them here in comment below, but please do not create a separate post about the same thing.

The beach is, from far, my favourite place.

I spend lot of time here, on Connect these days, and I feel like in a virtual journey around the world.
