Ashiyana dining experience
Sourced from local producers and created by celebrated chefs, the Ashiyana Goa restaurant offers two mouth-wateringly, delicious meals per day; brunch and evening dinner. Inspired by the finest home-grown ingredients, the two chefs, Rathi and Tek, prepare unique, flavor-filled creations that fuse Indian, Nepalese and Thai recipes with western cuisine.
The mostly vegetarian, buffet menu includes an abundance of fresh fruit and seasonal vegetables, with seafood dishes offered twice a week. Wonderfully balanced, nutritious meals for all tastes and dietary needs; dining with Ashiyana is unquestionably a highlight of any visit.
Guests, staff, teachers, and therapists all join together at mealtimes as one big family. The large dining table provides the perfect opportunity to join in group conversations and make new friends. Alternatively, seek out the gazebo and other more private, dining areas for more intimacy.
Fresh, triple-filtered drinking water, masala chai, hot ginger lemon, and a selection of herbal teas are available by self-service throughout the day.
Brunch (10:00 - 11:00)

All dishes are lovingly homemade and baked in-house.
Dinner (19:00 - 20:00)
The vibrant colors and flavors of the evening buffet meal delight all palates and tantalize the senses.
