Shriya Pligaonkar, who is currently enjoying her vacation in Goa, left us salivating with her food adventures. In her latest Instagram post, the actress shared picture of a lip-smacking “Goan Thali”. Alongside the snap, Shriya wrote, “I can give up every other food for a Goan Thali.” The mouthwatering meal included some popular and traditional Goan dishes like Malwani prawn curry, rava fried fish, kokum saar, dry roasted garlic and coconut chutney, dry fish pickle, and puffy rice. We could also spot crab masala, brinjal sabzi, and a delectable sheera (pudding). Are you slurping too? Because we certainly are!
