About the experience:
Petisco’s pop-up at The Conservatory with Chef Halton Dsouza and head bartender Dev Narvekar is here to flip the script on Goan food as you know it. Chef Halton Dsouza is taking traditional Goan flavors and pushing them to the edge, creating dishes that play with texture, flavor, and presentation in ways you’ve never seen. Think of it as Goa, but reimagined-seafood curries with a kick, local bar favorites with a whole new vibe, It’s Goa, but through a fresh, experimental lens.
At The Conservatory, we thrive on experimentation, and this pop-up is all about exploring where Goan cuisine can go next.
And what’s a Goan dining experience without the perfect drinks?
Petisco’s renowned mixologist, Dev Narvekar, will be curating a special menu of Goa-inspired cocktails, each crafted with locally foraged ingredients and bursting with creativity. From coastal herbs to tropical fruits, every sip will complement the flavors of Chef Halton’s menu and transport you straight to Goa’s rich landscapes.
This pop-up is more than just a meal-it’s an immersive, multi-sensory journey through the evolving world of Goan shack and bar culture.
