About  Myself and the blog:

Hi and thanks for stopping by 🙂 .  My name is Saigeetha.S.Pai .I was born and brought up in Mangalore and presently I reside in Mangalore,Karnataka, with my husband and kids..I’m a mother of two,elder one is Sanjana and  my younger one is  Pratham .I’m very new to the Blogging world,an absolute novice.This is my very first food blog.I will try to post the recipe’s in the space whenever possible.To design this blog I have taken lot of pain by spending lot of time, surfing  the internet  and gathering information.I have visited a number of food blogs to study about the blog and I’m still learning to customize the blog, experimenting and researching.So friends I need your support to do my best.

Cooking is my first love.I started exploring the kitchen at the age of eleven.I’m a foodie and I like to taste food of different continents.I enjoy watching cookery shows.My family is my best critic.In this blog  GEETHS DAWATH I will entertain you’ll with both vegetarian and non-Vegetarian dishes.I love seafood  so you all will get  to see different varieties on seafood preparations.I don’t prefer to eat chicken much but I enjoying cooking different recipes based  on the same.Not to forget to mention you’ll will also witness Mangalorean food.I will post only tested,tried and successful recipes that is full-proof recipe.A very warm welcome to one and all to GEETHS DAWATH, a multicuisine kitchen.

Most favorite thing:

My better half:
My husband Sanjay has been a great support to me.He loves our traditional Konkani (GSB)food.So I will also post G.S.B recipes  in this blog gradually.

My Hobby: 
I love collecting recipe books.My latest hobby is posting food posts in the Facebook food groups.Konkani Amchi Food was  my first platform where I got the exposure to show my culinary skills.I want to thank my FB friends and the group admins since I have learn’t a lot from these groups.I have a huge collection of handwritten recipes too.I also like to collect Kitchen gadgets,crockeries etc.

Thanks giving:
Firstly, I want to thank my Mom for what I am today.Most of the Konkani recipes I  learn’t from my mother and she is  my pillar of strength and success.The recipes in this blog are adapted from my family, Facebook food groups,internet,recipe books, etc.Thank you one and all!!!!

Baking :
I’m still exploring  the  baking world.My friend Lakshmi Kudua is an excellent baker .She guides me with few baking tips.I have succeeded in most of the baking recipes recently and have become pretty confident.I still remember my mother used to bake nankatai and macaroons in our traditional oven.I used to experiment sponge cakes and would be disappointed with the result ,but my mom used to encourage  me with  her positive words.She has been my true inspiration.

My Mantra:
Everyday is a learning process.
