Floyd Cardoz: Memories of Chowder
31 Aug. The New York Times. Just because it's hotter than
40 degrees outside doesn't mean that chowders are hibernating
…
Floyd Cardoz, the executive chef
at Tabla and the Bread Bar, grew up in Mumbai, and ate his
first chowder there, at the age of 12. ''My mom made one for
me,'' he said. In 2003, he started making chowder in the summer.
His version is laced with coconut milk, cardamom, coriander
and a bit of pasilla chili or chipotle. ''The cardamom works
with coconut,'' Mr. Cardoz said. ''The sweetnesses play off
each other, and the reason I like this dish is that I love
coconut.''

Please Do Rain On Our Parade
26 Aug: Elliott Wave International (Georgia, USA) …
there's only one place in the world that markets itself
as a monsoon destination: the Indian state of Goa …
according to a story in the Wall Street Journal, Goa has
figured out that it's smart to market themselves to Arabs
and other people who never experience rain. One travel posters
says, "Come Feel the Rain." … Moral of the
story: Wanting to go on a rainy vacation may seem crazy
to most people but just right to those who live in a desert.

RECENT ITEMS OF PARTICULAR
INTEREST ON GOANET. BY CORNEL DACOSTA
Estaquio Santimano who normally excels at sports news coverage
has presented an informative article titled "Goa celebrates
annual harvest festival with pomp and gaiety." Also,
in another post, Estaquio explores issues relating to Intellectual
Property following a recent national symposium on this theme
at the Goa Institute of Management in Ribander. At its heart,
the discussion has been about the move "from the free
availability of knowledge to the advent of the Intellectual
Property Regime (IPR) consequent to the commercialisation
of knowledge."
In Goa, much discussion had taken place previously, on the
planned Skybus project. Unfortunately, it did not take off
for technical reasons. In its place, there is now a proposal
for a Monorail transport system to connect Margao, Panjim
and Mapusa.
For those avid Goan Voice(UK) readers who follow Goan tiatr
closely, there is a substantial and informative article
about Manuel de Santa Cruz and his significant contribution
to tiatr.
The Sesa Goa Green Belt project plans to provide a Biodiversity
Plantation in the vicinity of Goa University. The details
provided so far, intend to "enhance the senses of vision,
smell, touch and taste." Clearly, this is a garden
in the making for all to enjoy.
Finally, yet another welcome quote on Goanet from Domnic
Fernandes. "Remember that life's treasures are people,
not things."

Francis Newton Souza is among the artists featured at
Christie's Asian art sales in New York, Sep 20-22. A
strong and varied Souza selection includes landscapes,
nudes and still-life. One of the highlights is "Girl
with Hairpin and Girdle" that is estimated to fetch
$80,000-100,000. Both gentle and yet highly suggestive,
and blending European conventions with a compelling
Indian motif, this painting is arguably one of Souza's

Book Review: Curry - The Spice of
Life
27 Aug: The Guardian. Review of Curry: A Biography. By Lizzie
Collingham. 336pp, Chatto & Windus, £16.99. Excerpt:
In 17th-century Goa it was the visiting Portuguese who taught
the local Indians how to make the exquisite egg and milk-based
sweets that have since become part of the fabric of eating
on the western seaboard. By way of reciprocity, the natives
taught the Portuguese how to be clean: not previously known
for their personal daintiness, the settling Europeans started
lathering up and changing their pants with a regularity that
amazed newcomers as they reached for yet one more helping
of bebinka, a delicious mix of coconut milk, eggs and hunks
of palm sugar.
