    assortment of crostini that can only be described as delicious. The Beef Fillet with Porcini Wild Mushrooms was as good as any steak available in Goa. And the Ravioli de Pesce al Pomodoro e Basilico (Fish Ravioli with tomato sauce and basil) touched the right notes as well. Most of the dessert offerings are ice cream in one form or another, but we went for the tiramisu and were not disappointed.Theres also something nice (and very Italian) about having the owner herself, a broad smile on her face, come to the table to discuss the menus offerings. If youve ever had the experience of having an exuberant restaurateur in Palermo, Milan or Venice walk you through a menu or better yet, say relax and put yourself in our hands then youll know what were talking about. Nothing against Ernestos. But this is a good change. Grazie, Maria Grazia! The Taste: Real Italian, not what-we-think-Goans-want ItalianThe Place: Romantic, outdoor, colonialThe Price: Expect to pay Rs 400 for most dishes (appetizers included in that price)Where: 49 Mala Fontainhas, Panjim.

    We have excellent medical practitioners in all fields. But the only concern is that when Goa government organises travel mart abroad they only promote tourism in Goa and do not highlight the medical facilities here.
