What is an amchigel function without a “pot bharthi amchigel jaavan”?
The mouth-watering ghashi, hummana, valvala, gajbaja, sukkay, upkari, phodi, madgaaney, phanna thaaka... and not to forget our kuldevu daalithoy!!!
Michkon members are the backbone of the association. With your support, we hope to continue to keep our very own special Konkani cuisine alive!! So, the Michkon Food committee invites food volunteers to help or cook some of the dishes, and set up an ‘all amchi gourmet’ for the Ugadi and Ganesh Chaturthi events. (Please see our events page for more information)
Our purpose is to help spread the cultural identity of us Konkanis living in the state of Michigan. Bringing people closer together as both friends and family, and strengthening our bonds is our number one priority.
Michkon has been providing a community to the Konkani American population living in Michigan for 40+ years. Over 100 families call Michkon their community and we're very proud of our heritage and our members
