MANGO MIRCHI established in 2008 by Desmond &Irine D’CUNHA with specializing in Mangalorean & Goan Cuisine catering to the vast community exisiting in Greater Toronto, Ontario.

We also specialize in Some North Indian & Other daily specials from different parts of India.

MANGO no doubt is a fruit but it is a fusion of Mangalore & Goa the 2 cities on the west coast of India with Christians having a common language ( Konkani ) and cultures. MIRCHI means Chilly.

Desmond D’Cunhahails from Bajpe, Mangalore and was raised in Mumbai, India along with many Goan families in SOUTH MUMBAI. As member of The Catholic Gymkhana exposed him to a mix of GOAN & MANGALOREAN cultures and food.
Having completed his Chef Training at the Oberoi Sheraton, Mumbai he moved to the Middle East and owned and operated the only Goan and Mangalorean Restaurant and catering unit popularly known as ‘City Kitchen’ in the U.A.E.

Irine also hails from Mangalore but she moved to Bangalore and coming from a hospitality background got involved in operating a catering unit known as “RELISH CATERERS” specializing in Manglorean & Goan delicacies. Pork Dishes & Sannas were one of the most popular dishes among many others.

On migrating to Canada they noticed a lack of restaurants or catering services dishing out traditional Mangalorean and Goan Delicacies. After a lot of speculations they took the plunge, like most daredevils do, resigned their day jobs and started off with the head-line of “Take Home The True Taste of Home” and launching the first ‘MANGO MIRCHI’ outlet in Canada,catering to the community to experience the true taste of Mangalorean and Goan cuisine.

Most of their recipes have been passed down from their mothers and grandmothers who perfected Mangalorean and Goan cooking, However, the memory of the taste of these foods they prepared is fast being forgotten with the new trends in the food industry.

According to Desmond and his wife “Mango Mirchi’sspeciality is catering to pre-wedding functions known as ‘Roce’ ceremony. Our expertise in preparing dishes for this function is second to none. Every dish is prepared with fresh ingredients that embody simplicity and humility, cooked and served with love. For those, who are longing for the true taste of home, Mango Mirchi is the place. And we’re just a phone call away.”

Our food is best enjoyed if different dishes are ordered and shared giving a great experience in the exotic taste of the variety of spices
