In this workshop, Vikram Doctor delves into the intricate story of Gobi Manchurian, a dish that has faced bans in certain Goan towns. Does a plate of Gobi Manchurian serve as a reflection of shifting labour dynamics in Goa? Largely consumed by non-Goans, especially migrant workers filling roles that Goans increasingly avoid, the dish has grown into a symbol of discomfort. This event will uncover how these complex layers of food, identity, and labour reveal deeper insights into the movement of food and culture within the city of Goa.
