- Before Goa’s 2023 season began, quite a few new cafes and restaurants opened in the Colva-Benaulim stretch. But only some of these are Goan-run, and one of these is Colva’s Mee Maws. Mee Maws is one of Goa’s many women-owned businesses

If you’re wondering, this name is not the usual mixing of two Goan names into one. The MeeMaw here recalls what Sheldon Cooper called his grandmother when he was growing up in Texas in the US. For owner Shamim and her husband Rajkiran D’Souza are huge fans of The Big Bang Theory and Young Sheldon, just like we are.
The Texas connection makes up the menu too, with real American style hot dogs and sloppy joe sandwiches, and huge burgers that are larger than your hand.
MeeMaws Burger and Cafe
Akar Excelsior, Shop 6, Colva-Benaulim road, near Florida Gardens, Vanelim, Colva, Salcette, Goa 403708
Mondays and first half of Sundays CLOSED
Google Maps location: maps.app.goo.g...
Mee Maws is located in Vanelim, next to Florida Gardens, on the Dabolim-Cavelossim Road. From the Benaulim side, drive straight up the Dabolim-Cavelossim Road from Maria Hall towards Colva. After the chapel of Menino Jesus, you will reach a line of shops. Mee Maws is among these shops
Today, Maria, Roma and Jaya are trying different versions of mac and cheese, and Lesley is having a gourmet New York hot dogs (Rs 245), stuffed with cheese and kheema in barbecue sauce, which owner Shamim highly recommended. Really delicious and filling, if somewhat messy to eat
We also tried the mac and cheese, garlic bread, mashed potato and sausage platter, mac and cheese with mushroom platter and mac and cheese in a mug, with bacon topping. This last mac and cheese in a mug is one of many mug meals at Mee Maws, something we don’t see often in Goa
Lesley had a very nice Irish coffee, with a touch of bourbon. Everyone tried it
Another day, Lesley was back at Mee Maws with Maria, Roma and Viola, all of whom are having a tough time deciding what to eat. Finally, we decided on chicken crostini, tomato and basil crostini, the Texas sloppy joe sandwich, a huge Oreo chocolate finale milkshake, a smoked hot chicken sandwich and finally, the blueberry parfait, which Maria thought was Gadbad
When next we passed by Mee Maws, they had just added burgers to their menu. My homie Punya had a beef smash double patty burger, which looked rather massive. He’s a big guy, yet he just about managed to hold the burger in his hands. He loved the taste.
It’s messy work to eat a Mee Maws burger, but very satisfying. And it’s definitely for those with big appetites. Between us, Maria and I could not even finish one Chinese crispy chicken burger.
The last thing we tried was a beef kheema cheese roll, which was tasty but let down by the bread roll, which kind of collapsed
The size of the portions here make the prices pretty good for youngsters even on pocket money budgets too. At Rs 220, the chicken burger we had is more than enough for two.
Next time you’re passing through Colva-Benaulim and want something different from the usual tiny burgers and boring hot dogs we get in our Goan bakeries, step into Mee Maws and try the real thing!

I was here exactly 4 months ago.. In November. 2023.. Was walking from benaulim, exploring, looking for rents.. On foot and saw this.. I just wanted to chill a little with some beer before I went exploring.. they didn't have any that day but the owner was so nice as to suggest to serve me one of their drinks.. Something bourbon. I can't quite remember. But was really fun.. Wish to try their food next time
Jaya cheese is non veg😂😂😂
Hi Lesly how did you find the prices are they reasonable?
Hi, yes I found the prices reasonable because the portion size is very good
Mouthwatering
The chicken looks amazing!
Cherry Tomato in Margao is good
Da Tita is a lovely place to try also owned by a Goan and Italian couple. Lonquinos has a cool history too and Ivo is so nice. Great video!
Lesley is that dog a foot long ? Wow the foot long’s has landed in Goa
The Hot dog is pretty long compared to usual and the beef chilli stuffing makes it very yum yum . Hope to see you soon @ MeeMaws. ( from Shamim Dsouza) 😁
Hi, it's not a foot long but it's quite large and very tasty!
This place surely deserves a visit.
Thanks for sharing, Lesley 👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you for watching!
Yummy😋
Hey Lesley loved your vlog , been missing your vids . Hope all is ok ? Take care, God bless!
Thank you for your kind words. Had a difficult October in terms of health but am fit and fine now!
Nice work
@@lesleyingoa Lesley ,dear take care we want to see more and more if goa through yr eyes
Very nice, thanks for sharing ma'am...🙂
Most welcome 😊
We are going to try Mee Maws this lunchtime as it's only a 20 minute walk from our guesthouse. Looking forward to trying the food. Will let you know about our experience later 🤞
We arrived just before 1130 and I assume because of the time it was empty. Only 1 lad cooking and serving and took over 20 minutes to get just a drink. We ordered the hot dog and a spicy crispy chicken burger with a blueberry cooler and a masala tea. Once the food arrived it was very nice and tasty. Will definitely go back before we head down to Palolem in the new year. Happy Christmas to you all and keep the videos coming.
Thanks for your feedback
