Chandrakant's Restaurant (Fish'N'Chips) — Restaurant in Goa

Went here after watching vlogs which recommended the place and asked to support local small joints. We ordered bangda thaali, modso thaali, lepa fish fry and fresh lime soda. The thaalis were average, nothing exceptional, fresh lime soda didn't seem to have any lemon in it. What disappointed us the most was difference in treatment towards locals and tourists.

Overall value for money food served with...

While beaches and main roads of Goa have crowded restaurants charging exorbitantly for mediocre / non-Goan food, Chandrakant's located in an interior road serves a variety of veg and fish thalis (Rs. 80 for veg, up to Rs. 220 for fish thali) without burning a hole in your pocket. We had veg, kokar and mackerel thalis. They get fresh fish daily and taste much better than what you get at shacks or big restaurants in Candolim, Baga or Calangute. Kokum juice is so good and you can't help but ask for a...
