Konkan in Rains

Diveagaar was a last minute decision. Thought of going to other place in the konkan belt like Srivardhan, hari hareshwara. But ended up here. And for good. Enjoyed the beach throuoghly. The biggest treat was the Sandy beach. wow no stones under the feet was so great a feeling. No fear of falling down and hurting, makes you have more fun. And it was. Neat Beach, very less people and Dhano's ride(though it was animal exploitation). Had fun in the sea till our body parts did not start screaming of breaking down with tiredness. Waves were on our side and tide was at its best. Another great treat was food. yes Konkan belt and good vegetarian food is a rare thing to find. But we did. We had the most authentic steamed Modak and Solcurry. Gosh i had tasted both before and did not like it that much, but this changed my perception. We all ate so much much more, till our foods did not get stuff in our lungs.
The modak just melted in our mouths and the steam has most awesome smell. Adding to it was solcurry with the most oppsite taste. A little tinge of spice from ginger and masala was legen....coming coming.....dary... lengendary, balancing the sweetness. Just a hint. We has to order a day before or an hour before the order was served to us. food at suvarna ganesh
