The restaurant maintains cleanliness and hygiene standards admirably. Our South Indian meal was served promptly and piping hot. The service is commendable, with attentive staff who are quick to respond. However, finding parking for four-wheelers can be a bit challenging during peak hours. Don't miss out on their delightful quick bites and excellent filter coffee.

It was disheartening for us to witness reduced water levels this summer, attributed to the absence of significant rainfall for over a decade. In previous years, this season boasted magnificent waterfalls. The temperature soared to 47 degrees Celsius, the highest recorded by forest officials. Despite the challenges, there were ice cream caravans and sugarcane juice stores to quench our thirst, along with ample car parking available.

Furthermore, forest officials prohibited tourists from accessing certain waterfall areas due to unforeseen circumstances. However, two viewpoints still offer stunning vistas. Parking fees are set at 20 INR, while admission to the waterfall viewpoint costs 5 INR.

The Neer Dose is a highly sought-after dosa, particularly when paired with sweet coconut spread and complemented by curry leaves chutney. This self-service restaurant offers a variety of Southern Indian cuisines. Although street parking can be difficult to find, it's a compromise worth making for the exceptional taste.

Located near Mapusa, this temple is tucked away down a lane. Parking can be a challenge for four-wheelers. The temple houses idols of Lord Ganesh, Shiva, and Lakshmi Narayan. It offers a serene environment suitable for meditation and prayer.

Upon our arrival around opening time, the restaurant was bustling, a clear sign of its popularity. While there's ample staff to manage the crowd, expect potential delays in receiving your order based on demand and menu choices. The restaurant provides views of paddy fields, offering an average scenic experience. While waiting, you can appreciate the view, observe people, or watch the chefs in action.

I had heard much about this establishment and had the chance to visit during our visit.
