If you like Indian and Portuguese food and wish that there was some way you could fuse the two, you must go Goan.
Never heard of it?
Goa is the smallest state in Indian and can be found to the south west of the country. The region has a rich Portuguese history which is evident in the architecture and the food. Goan cuisine marries traditional Indian spices with Portuguese flavours.

Goa-Doodle-Do is a quirky restaurant located in Woollongabba (598 Stanley Street) that is just as much fun to visit as its name is to say. The menu is a showcase of Goan delights, including many family recipes – you'll find Mediterranean ingredients like chorizo and seafood served with conventional Indian sauces and curries. Diners have three different spice levels to choose from.
The establishment is licensed but, although meals are reasonably priced, the drink prices are a little on the steep side.
Goa-Doodle-Do is a family owned and run business and as a result, has a warm and cosy atmosphere. And with
5% of takings going to various charities, you'll feel warm and cosy spending your money here.
This restaurant is open for lunch Monday to Friday from 11.00am until 2.00pm and for dinner Tuesday to Saturday from 5.00pm until late.
