Filsu Classic's Goan Food, Cortalim, Goa, June 2023

Today we are going to old Filsu (a Goan restaurant) in Cortalim-Quelossim, by the Zuari river

Filsu Classic is located bang opposite the Cortalim fishing jetty on the Cortalim-Loutolim-Borim road. If coming from the south Margao side, you can take the Panjim highway but stay below the new Zuari bridge and take any of the turns on the right to join the Cortalim-Loutolim-Borim road. If coming from Panjim-Bardez side, stay below the new Zuari bridge at Agassaim and proceed towards Margao on the old Zuari bridge. When you see the ladies selling kulleo (crabs) and tisreo (shellfish), you will see the Cortalim-Loutolim road running parallel to you. Take the u-turn onto this road from near the right turn for Dabolim airport.

This place has done very well. They started here in Cortalim-Quelossim more than 45 years back and now they have their own place in Verna Industrial Estate. Plus they have their own small local bar next to Filsu Classic in Cortalim.

This video was shot on June 6, before the monsoon started in Goa. It was still very hot, so we went upstairs and sat in Filu's AC section. Today we had chonak rechead fry (Rs 480), modso thali (Rs 260), Goan veg thali (Rs 160), beef chilli fry (Rs 270) and xinaneo rawa fry (mussels Rs 470).

Filsu Classic's Modso thali: modso (lemon fish) fry, fish curry, kismur (dry prawns and coconut salad), tendli (ivy gourd) bhaji, tisreo (shellfish), sasav (sweet sour vegetable with mustard seeds), sweet, tival/futi kadi, salad, pickle and Goan rice.

We really enjoyed all the food. Roma's butterscotch ice cream for dessert was like a proper sundae.
