Goa eateries pivot to tandoors, sous-vide as LPG cylinders hit Rs 3,150 amid Hormuz disruption
Goa F&B operators are absorbing a doubling of energy costs—LPG cylinders at Rs 3,150 and power bills sharply higher—after Strait of Hormuz disruption squeezed supply. NRAI Goa members and IHCL properties are shifting to tandoors, sous-vide, electric cooking and chulhas, with menu price hikes flagged as piped gas rollout lags.
Goa F&B operators face Rs 3,150 LPG cylinders and doubled power bills due to Hormuz disruption. Restaurants are absorbing costs but plan price hikes, shifting to tandoors, sous-vide, electric cooking and chulhas while awaiting delayed piped gas.
Why this matters
Goa's F&B sector is absorbing a doubling of LPG costs to Rs 3,150 per cylinder, forcing a structural shift in cooking methods. With piped gas infrastructure delayed, operators face sustained margin pressure and likely menu repricing.
