A Home Away From Home in Goa
My wife and I return to Kashmash every time we’re in Goa—it’s become our go‑to dinner spot for comfort, warmth, and unforgettable food. Nestled by the lush green marshlands of Siolim, the ambience here feels like a cozy Kashmiri garden away from the bustle of Goa.
What truly sets this place apart is the dedication of Fahaad, the chef‑owner, who infuses every dish with the flavours and care of a homestyle Kashmiri kitchen. His cooking is a true art, and you can taste the soul in every bite.
We especially love the mutton yakhni—a luxurious yoghurt‑based mutton curry that is delicately spiced and melts in your mouth—and the Marchwangan Korma (or michiwangi korma), which strikes the perfect balance of fragrant spices and tangy red chilli warmth. Every dish here feels like a hug—simple, homey, and deeply comforting.
The Tabakhmaaz (fried mutton ribs with walnut chutney) is also a standout appetizer, deeply flavourful and authentic Kashmiri tanginess.
The ambience is equally soothing—the tranquil swamp views and serene marshland backdrop complement the soulful cuisine beautifully. Soft music, wooden décor with Kashmiri accents, and warm lighting make every evening feel special.
In short: If you’re craving truly authentic Kashmiri flavours in Goa—with a chef whose passion shines through and an atmosphere that feels like home—Kashmash is the place. We love it, and can’t wait to go back again.
