Gunpowder (Assagao)
Gunpowder
Set in the courtyard of an old Indo-Portuguese heritage house in Assagao, this South Indian coastal restaurant is a popular alternative to typical Goan seafood.
Housed in a beautiful Indo-Portuguese heritage home in Saunto Vaddo, Assagao, Gunpowder features a lush, green courtyard with sheltered outdoor seating. The menu focuses on South Indian coastal cuisine, with Egg Appam, Kozhi Fry, Kerala Mutton Curry, and Malabar Prawn Curry being popular choices, best paired with flaky Malabar Parottas. Multiple platforms note that reservations are required, and it is highly recommended to book ahead during weekends and peak season. A meal for two costs about 1,500–1,600 INR. Closed on Mondays. It is easiest to reach by taxi from Mapusa or Anjuna.
