You didn't know that?

Oddly, I was talking to one of the Portuguese guys I work with, and he didn't.

To be precise, I think it was invented in Goa, when that was a Portuguese colony...

Invented in Portugal and exported to Goa, I hear.

Was Coffee also introduced to Brazil by the Portuguese?

"Curry: A Tale of Cooks and Conquerors" is a great book that covers the topic of vindaloo.
