All Day Goan Bakery


Beef Cutlets, chicken burger, Mince rolls, Irish Coffee and many more delicacies, surround you while you sit to eat at Infantaria. An all day eatery near the Calangute beach. On my recent visit to the State, several people and websites suggested me to must visit this joint. After shopping in Mapusa, we rode back to Calangute. The eatery is next to a play ground and the road going to Baga beach. The Ground plus one bungalow type eatery is open all day and especially well known for breakfast. The decor is simple but very classy and laid back. Imagine sitting next to a well, or to a food display  counter. If your hungry, you will like to eat it all but the rich food the eatery serves doesn't allow you to do so.

 As we sat i felt i was in one of the Bakeries in Bandra, Hersch or Andora. We had gone there for tea and evening snacks. So i ordered for a chicken burger and prachi called for a cheese croissant. The burger unlike of having a patty and slices of onion and tomato, had sliced chicken pieces. Though a different take on burgers but it was really delicious. The croissant was fresh and filling.


Infantaria is as old as Goa, the locals throng this place for snacks. But the publicity it has got over the years, ensures Indian and foreign tourist fight for space. The place also promotes local artist. On evenings a show is held where local artist display their talent. When we visited there was to be a show by a local band.


A small but very satisfying eatery, the pleasing staff and ambiance makes me say to you..Its a must visit if your in Goa.
