Located at: Dubai Creek Club Street, Dubai, United Arab Emirates Visited on: 19 Oct, 2017 Ahlan from sunny Dubai! Back in the land of my second home, and stuffing our faces with all sorts of food, day and night. The multicultural and cosmopolitan nature of this city has given rise to the availability of cuisines…

Here's my two cents on what's at the table today.
Ranthaliya Rest House
Located at: 11 South Lake Road, Kurunegala, Sri Lanka Visited on: 22 Jun, 2017 This was a lunch stop we made while on a visit to Kurunegala, prior to The Eat Log days. Hence details are comparatively minimal and I have just a single, candid (and poorly focused) picture of the spread. But the food…
Chutneys @ Cinnamon Grand (Part 01)
Located at: 77 Galle Road, Colombo 03, Sri Lanka Visited on: 03 Oct, 2017 For some odd and unknown reason, I woke up a couple of mornings ago with the thought of dining at Chutneys. So naturally, perhaps, that is the first place that came to mind when we were contemplating where to have lunch….
The Lagoon @ Cinnamon Grand (Part 01)
Located at: 77 Galle Road, Colombo 03, Sri Lanka Visited on: 25 Sep, 2017 The Lagoon was bustling on a Monday night – which says something about the place. And which you can understand once you’ve tasted their food and experienced their service. This is a seafood restaurant with a ‘fish market’ concept where you go…
VOC Café @ Dutch Burgher Union
Located at: 114 Reid Avenue, Colombo 07, Sri Lanka Visited on: 24 Sep, 2017 As I have mentioned in a previous post, I might have a bit of a soft spot for VOC Café’s Chicken Lumprais (LKR 545). Leave aside the fact that the staff can sometimes be a bit unreliable and lost with orders. There’s something…
The Commons
Located at: 39A Flower Road, Colombo 07, Sri Lanka Visited on: 23 Sep, 2017 The Commons has always been a great hang-out spot, with its laid-back set-up and ambiance. With a comprehensive menu and central but quiet location, it’s also a popular stop for a quick bite or a long catch-up meal. However, they seem to…
Dolce Italia
Located at: 5 Skelton Road, Colombo 05, Sri Lanka Visited on: 21 Sep, 2017 This was our third visit to the recently relocated Dolce Italia and, I have to say, the place is growing on me. From the relaxed ambiance to the friendly management and the tempting selection of goodies on display, I predict this is going…
Ankara
Located at: 25 Milagiriya Avenue, Colombo 04, Sri Lanka Visited on: 09 Sep, 2017 There are three distinct tastes etched in my memory (and taste buds) from our travels to Turkey a few years ago – Turkish delight (the real stuff), Turkish ice cream (again, the real stuff) and Turkish tea (black as ever, but…
Nara Thai
Located at: 3 Deal Place, Colombo 03, Sri Lanka Visited on: 02 Sep, 2017 Nara Thai, for me, is now synonymous with consistency and great flavour. About five visits since it opened a year ago, I am yet to be left anything short of satisfied. There are a few favourites in particular that I go…
BreadTalk
Located at: 525 Union Place, Colombo 07, Sri Lanka Visited on: 02 Sep, 2017 The first thing I noticed upon opening my packet of Chicken Lumprais (LKR 500) from BreadTalk was that it had an egg – something that most places, including VOC Café by Dutch Burgher Union, tend to omit nowadays. I’m not sure…
