Cashew Trail Brunch 2016 At Magical Forest, Park Hyatt Goa

This one’s the finale to the Cashew Trail 2016 that was held by Park Hyatt Goa Resort And Spa this year. The Magical Forest was transformed into a cool and fun Cashew Trail Brunch experience with Arossim beach on the side. Cashew Trail is an annual event that was conceptualised and brought to life by Park Hyatt Goa Resort And Spa, in association with Madame Rosa Distillery in 2012.

My BAE and me were lost in the tranquility and the magical ambience that this exceptional brunch brought along. Other than a cute little cashew stomping area for the kids, they also had a separate creative corner for them to indulge in their favourite hobbies as they sipped on fresh juices.

As I moved from one grill to another, the fish lover in me had literally died and reached it’s own huge “Fish Heaven.” The grills had some of the best types of fishes, so many that we as Mumbaikars can only dream of. But thanks to the ever-flourishing sea life of Goa, Park Hyatt Goa Resort And Spa put life into outdoor brunching by the sea at their Magical Forest.

Take a look at the menu of the Cashew Trail Brunch – Arabic Mezze Cold Cuts, Live Grills Of Veg & Non-Veg, different types of fresh breads, canapé salads, beer BBQ Chicken, chilled watermelon and cucumber mint gazpacho, live pasta pizza corner, a dessert counter and a fresh fruit counter that also served fresh coconut water.

My favourite of them all was the “Catch Of The Day” counter that was served to the guests with their favourite sauces right from Indian to Mediterranean, Goan Peri Peri and Asian Marination options. The Cashew Trail Brunch saw DJ Pepe spinning some acoustic beats of deep house music.

Park Hyatt Goa Resort And Spa had also arranged for a fun culinary challenge where participants used cashews to whip up delectable dishes for the competition and the winner got couples stay in Hyatt Abu Dhabi. Apart from organizing some interesting and fun activities to keep us happy and busy, few lucky on the spot winners also got to be a part of a Helicopter ride overlooking Goa, and Arossim Beach that day.

I later dropped by at the Sereno Spa to experience their cashew ritual that included the cashew body scrub and the cashew oil, which is known to enhance your skin texture and rejuvenate you completely.

A bicycle ride around the Magical Forest along with a dip in their multi-level swimming pool is a must-do when you visit Park Hyatt Goa Resort And Spa next. If you want to experience the goodness of the most famous fruit of Goa – “Cashew”, right from the drinks (fresh urak and feni) to the mocktails and food delicacies, then make sure to be a part of this unforgettable and enriching experience with Park Hyatt Goa Resort And Spa.
