Golden Grain In Goa

While the waves lash the shores and splash in soft music

The dishes we serve here in this Golden Grain restaurant

Emanate aroma into the nostrils a pungent sweet exclusive

Have you visited this earlier too or how are you insouciant 



A sip of sweetly sour sea food clear soup with tofu in your mouth

While on your hair the wind from the Arabian Sea plays its tickles

As you change your seat for the cool wind coming from the south

Our gracious waiters serve you mouth watering sea food pickles



Tasting the cheesy tuna salad as you share your moments with sea

The boundless sky above invites you to look at its cracked blue art

We are mystified if we will have the listen and sight or have the glee

 In Sorpotel with rice, the Goan cuisine we must take to fill our heart


Made of pork in spices coconut vinegar and green chillies

Sorpotel is the essence of Christian gastronomy of  Goa

The pungent and little salty flavor will without doubt ease

Your fatigue and more so if you take chunks of chilly soya



To which delight you will employ your perception is

A challenge as your eyes are amazed at the sight of 

Seagulls in front of the restaurant leaving the breeze

Have become scavengers in their wing-spread hops



There is the all time favourite basil leaf spread lovely

Pizza dough of Phoenix with a crisp but chewy crust

Made by our chef himself who learned his art at Italy

Sweet salty pizza margheritta of ours take you must 


Bebinca you all have to take in its full seven saffron layers

Get the personification of Goan spirit in this unique dessert

While listening to and looking at the splashy music players

Nonetheless your taste buds seek the sweet food for a flirt


Golden Grain is a golden moment in the golden sea beach

Do step in and taste the food with waves within your reach
