    In the Philippines there is a coconut and sticky rice cake called bibingka. I don't think bebinca is Portuguese in origin. I think it originated in India and spread throughout the world by South Asian sea traders. Thank you.

    The best Bebinca comes from South goa. In a quaint "gado" or street shop opposite the Margao Garden, in the vicinity of the Old bus Stand, behind the Margao Branch of the SBI, is Frankie's Gado in line with numerous other knick knack shops. Franky sells the 12 layered home made Bebinca, which one must parcel and take away. Keep it refrigerated and have it cold , i like it that way, or, from the fridge, heat it to 30s microwave and your good to go. It lasts for upto a month silver foiled in the side shelf of your fridge.

    People who have stayed for 20 years are not necessarily real Goans or their descendants. So very likely they haven't heard of it. In fact most people in Goa have no inkling of Goan customs or just half idea of what Goan food is assuming that it's just fish based. Take for example sorpotel or aadmass or solantule etc We Goans know these things because to our grandmothers during our childhood this was household stuff not the commercialized stuff you feed on now.

      And that is sad. The same is happening in Macau. The Macanese who even speak Patua and Portuguese are dying and being replaced by Mandarin speaking Mainlanders.

    It’s similar to Philippine’s rice cake called Bibingka

    When BBC came to Goa they were interested in video filming our Zibinca process but we did not agree for obvious reasons … BBC anytime if there is interest in letting everyone know the best available Bebinca from Goa we can oblige you with it but not the process. Cheers 🥂

      Actually, there is strong evidence suggesting that is originates from "kuih bingka". Kuih bingka is a sweet malay delicacy from Malacca. It's believed that the Portuguese traders from melaka brought it over there

    A taxi driver who's living in Goa for 20 years doesn't know wht bibinca is, like a south Indian who says he doesn't know what masala dosa is! 😂 what an .......

    • @atticthehattrick
      @atticthehattrick 8 месяцев назад +6

      Obviously because the taxi driver is a South Indian or a Maharashtrian. Goans don't drive taxis, they generally have migrated or own their own cars.

      Thts because in the last 20 years people from Karnataka, Andhra, Bihar and UP have migrated there as daily wagers or to work in the tourism biz. Driving taxis is part of the tourist biz. Goans have either migrated or given up driving taxis as a biz.

    There are a lot of non-goans who have lived in Goa for decades and know zero about Goa. You will learn nothing about Goa by speaking hindi in a taxi. These people are not goans and know nothing.
