World Music Day
Celebrated at Fernando's Nostalgia
It was an amazing afternoon spent at Fernando's Nostalgia at Raia.
The Truly Authentic Goan Boutique Restaurant setup in the silent village Raia.
There was entertaining music by Saxy Aggie to start the World Music Day celebrations. It was followed by the Friendly Brothers who gave wonderful music that got all the couples on the dance floor.
Tania and Andre performance was mesmerizing. The crowd danced all noon and late evening. The crowd enjoyed dancing the Waltz/Foxtrot/Tangos...to TWIST/SHAKE/JIVE/ROCK n ROLL/LAMBADA/ ZUMBA/SALSA to finally our very true GOAN folk-dances..the traditional Kunnbi/Dekhni and ending with the ever so popular Portuguese Malhao and Corredinho. Margarida was in the midst of everything from welcoming the guest, to seeing that they are all well taken care of and when she took to the dance floor it was electrifying :-).
The best part was the buffet consisting of Goa Rice (Red), Goa Rice (white) and Bhasamati Rice, with 6 different varieties of pickles, fish para, salted mackerel salad, kismur dry prawns, Ambade koromb, Tissreo Sukhem, Sausage Salad, Pork Solantelem, Urad Methi Curry, Tendlim Caldinho, Samarachi Codhi, Soimerem tisreo. Macaroon hot chocolate and Orna Ghodshem.
It was indeed a afternoon to remember. Congratulations to Margarida for hoisting yet another wonderful event at Nostalgia.
