The Tanjore Tiffin Room is a Tamil restaurant in Anjuna, North Goa, bringing regional South Indian cooking into the locality’s culinary hub. Its menu draws from Tamil traditions, with tiffin dishes, curries, seafood, meat, vegetarian preparations, and traditional refreshments shaped by tamarind, coconut, lentils, curry leaves, spices, and careful preparation.
The menu draws from Tamil culinary traditions, including the cooking of Thanjavur and surrounding regions, with recipes built around familiar regional ingredients and flavour structures.
Dosais, paniyarams, idiyappams, curd rice, rasam, and other tiffin-style preparations offer a varied approach to light, shareable South Indian dining.
Dishes such as Meen Kozhambu and Mutton Sukka highlight fish, meat, tamarind, coconut, whole spices, mustard seeds, and curry leaves through traditional preparations.
Vazhaipoo Vadai, Pulikuthiya Keerai, Kootu, lentils, vegetables, and greens bring depth and regional character to the vegetarian selection.
The tasting thali brings together a considered selection of preparations such as rasam, sambar, poriyal, and dessert, offering different flavours and textures within one meal.
Neer Mor, Panagam, and filter coffee complement the food alongside a focused selection of cocktails influenced by Indian ingredients and flavours.
The restaurant maintains a clear focus on Tamil culinary heritage rather than treating its menu as generic South Indian cuisine.
Tamarind, black pepper, chillies, coconut, lentils, jaggery, and curry leaves are used with attention to balance, structure, and the character of each preparation.
Heritage-inspired interiors, an unhurried setting, and attentive service support a dining experience designed around comfort, conversation, and thoughtful guidance through the menu.
Our Mission is to bring the depth and character of Tamil cooking to Goa through regional recipes, traditional tiffin, balanced flavours, and respectful preparation. The Tanjore Tiffin Room aims to preserve the identity of its culinary roots while creating an approachable dining experience where vegetarian, seafood, meat, and classic South Indian preparations can be enjoyed with warm and measured hospitality.
