Hi guys. Today Maria and I are off again across the Zuari river to Ponda, and we’re going to quite a well known place on the Bethora Road.
I’m sure all of you have heard of the great Sunny. Sunny was closed recently because his sister was getting married. And now he’s reopened so we’re going to say hi to him and taste his lovely fish
Sunny Bar is located in Betora, just south of Ponda. From Betora junction, take the Betora-Nirankal road. Keep going straight past United Spirits and Betora Industrial Estate, till you come to a temple at a T-point. Turn right here. Just half a kilometre down this road is the government high school at Betora, and Sunny is right opposite. Turn left into the ample parking space along the fence
There is seating in the bar area but we would rather sit outside in the family area.
Sunny has a big menu with all the Goan favourites like xacuti and cafreal in fish, chicken and mutton. Happy to see Goan veg items like mushroom chilli and cafreal and veg xacuti on the menu too.
Today we'll have chonak fish thali, veg thali, teesrio sukha and recheado bando (stuffed mackerel)
We were delighted to meet some of our fans at Sunny’s: Sayli, Avay and Aditya from Pune.
Sunny's teesrio sukha is very tasty, nice and spicy, different from the normal sukha we have. They have some special recipe here for their teesrio sukha. We don’t know what it is but we both love teesrio sukha and this is just out of this world
We interrupted our teesrio eating only to see the beautiful rechead bangdo that Sunny brought next. Fantastic, with crispy skin. Absolute heaven. It’s one of the best rechead bangdos I’ve had in my whole life, and I’ve had many. It is not just rechead masala stuffed into the fish. It’s rechead cooked with onions and tomatoes and coriander and all cooked together and then stuffed and it’s just heaven. They are very gifted cooks over here.
So now let’s see what we have in our thalis today. First we’ll see Maria’s veg thali: Tidkeo midkeo bhaji with potato, dal, alsande bhaji, pappadum, batata phodi, chapati, banana, salad, sal kari and rice.
And my chonak thali has beautiful chonak, banana, salad, sal kari, tidkeo midkeo bhaji, some more teesrio, pappadum, a beautiful fish curry and rice.
The fish curry is good but a little salty. Maria's dal was very tasty.
After this we got so busy eating and we enjoyed our lunch so much that we forgot to film everything also. Like our usual sol kari cheers shot at the end
Very reasonably priced food at Sunny’s.
We enjoyed our lunch. The bangdo was very special. We had no idea that just mixing some chopped onion and tomato into the rechead masala before stuffing it into the bangdo would make something so tasty. And the thali was great. Very generous. The fish curry was a little on the salty side for my taste. But can’t complain when they have such great teesrio and wow, what beautiful sweet fresh chonak in that rawa fry
Lovely. No wonder Sunny is so famous in Ponda

The thalis were so well presented. This is really a great restaurant. It is out of the way, but worth the trip.
As they serve different dishes in village area it's unique and delicious food like a big restaurant i will definitely visit this lovely yummy food place 👍👌
Amazing
Nice video, very very happy to see this video Thanks
That was a great treat. Your write up in the description box was as generous as the sublime food Sunny's served to you.
Truly enjoyed reading your review..
Your zestful search for so many restaurants across Goa, known and unknown, provides an exhaustive guide for the less informed ones like me , who really want to get the true feel of Goa, seek out its best kept secrets food -wise and also appreciate the vibrant , pulsating beauty of Goa's picturesque countryside.
Thank you Lesley .
Thank you, Sarah. It is encouraging comments from nice people like you that keep us going

Pleasure is mine.❤️
Love your Chanel Leslie, so informative and helpful for a mumbaikar like me who visits Goa annually and is mostly lost when it comes to going to the right authentic Goan eating joints. My next visit I will be more equipped in making the right choices, thanks to you!!❤ I'm Carl and I hope to see a video with a hello from you and company soon.
Thank you

U r doing really good work, been there last week but couldn't go out of Margao
Thabo you Leksely. I am going to visit Goa in november . Will stay in Panjim
Thanks to you
Rechado is my absolute favourite. I tried it way back in 2010 and I was sold. And you guys are right, very few places that make a good rechado
Yes, and all it takes is a little bit of effort
@@lesleyingoa I remember a place in Bambolim by the beach (that has stairs to go down), this came after that 5 star Taj hotel. There was an old couple who ran the place. Had the best Rechado over there.
Looks like a great place and the food is really delicious.🎉
Nice video Thanks madam
LOVELY FISH DISHES U R SHOWING THANK YOU
Do visit Shivam restaurant in Fatorda near CD Jade Blue and Smita's lake view restaurant in Siridao
All the hidden gems am looking forward to visit 😮🤤🤤🤤
Another nine and a half months to go☹☹...I'm not a fish person at all, but by heavens, watching the two of you eat, I wouldn't mind giving it a try. Counting my days....
A very Happy Easter to you, Maria and the rest of the "eating gang"!!!
Happy Easter, Michael!
Luv u so much Lesley....
Watching from usa, lovely dishes, looks delicious
Thank you so much
Perfect💜
Never heard before,must try this
Love and respect from Delhi ☀️
Same from Goa!
I want to try this place
Ok what about Shagun in Margao?
Very nice
Goa tops the list when it comes to sea food. No where one gets such big portions of fish. Cheers :)
Goa is the best!
I watch your all video
Thank you so much
Mackerel Rechado was good👍👍👍. Chonak Thali was good👍👍👍
Parts of Goa have retained their Old World Charm. The eateries also, are not pretentious, but concentrate on serving great food. Would love to see shacks at the different Beaches.
Thanks Lesley and Maria.
I wonder how they can offer such a huge verity of dishes? They would need to be able to store all the different items for all the different dishes.
The mackrel perfectly well fried ..nice
Maria ma'm want to hear more from you...
There are unbelievable restaurants in Goa.
The food is amazing, I prefer chicken more than fish.
Looks like awesome food!!! that first dish itself looked heavenly.
Visit Tereza at Reis magos
nice one 👍
Thanks for the visit
Hello Lesley and Maria,
Request you to post the address and location of the restaurant (which helped me locate Tilves..)

@lesleyingoa Thanks a lot
Please visit Rock Inn Restaurant which is located in Divar Island
We did. We visited last year and all their empty tables were reserved and instead of even asking us to wait, they said come some other time. So we decline to cover them
@@lesleyingoa Oh, generally these people are rude then.
When we visited 2 years ago, the place was jam packed and they took like 1 and a half hour to bring just a plate of mixed fried rice.
We had ordered more food. They told that, it may take more than one hour to bring other food. Also they rudely told us to leave, if we can't wait.
Please do come to Mangalore to savour different types of thalis. There are lots of seafood restaurants where u can taste the best.
There is a best fish thali served in cavelossim near church it's a home made they serve it at their home
Can you tell me more about you'll in depth how did you'll met

Hi Lesley, kindly tell wheather MARGAON is same as MADGAON...coz we Puneits know only about Madgaon. I assume in Govan language it is pronounced as Margaon. Kindly correct me if I am wrong. Thanxxxx...😊
Yes, it's one and the same. Also it's Goan, not Govan
@@lesleyingoa Ohhh....thanxxx for correcting me.....
