Goa has emerged as a wedding destination for India and we are also seeing a surge of NRIs or PIOS coming to Goa for their weddings instead of their hometowns. Here is a question-answer interview with Chef Somnath Rakesh - Executive Chef of Taj Holiday Village and Taj Fort Aguada of when, how and most importantly what goes into planning of a wedding menu.
