The O’Coqueiro restaurant in Porvorim started way back in 1968 as a small eating joint. O’Coqueiro means the coconut tree in Portuguese. O’Coqueiro has a long tradition of serving authentic Goan & Portuguese cuisine. The restaurant was quite famous for its Chicken Cafreal, a wine-marinated Chicken dish which was made famous by Chef Gines Viegas when he returned from East Africa. Later in 1971, the restaurant shot to fame with the capture of the serial killer, Charles Sobhraj. There is a statue of him here. The restaurant has seafood dishes and other Goan style food like Fish Ambo-tik, Beef Asad and others. The ambience helps you feel relaxed, and the dishes are reasonably priced.
