Located at: Astoria Building, 418 R. A. de Mel Mawatha, Colombo 03, Sri Lanka Visited on: 22nd November, 2023 Astoria is a Chinese-owned entity in the heart of Colombo.

Shang Palace (II)
Located at: 1 Galle Face, Colombo 02, Sri Lanka Visited on: 23rd October, 2023 This visit to Shang Palace happened to be exactly six years after our last visit.

Shang Palace @ Shangri-La Colombo
Located at: 1 Galle Face, Colombo 02, Sri Lanka Visited on: 23 Oct, 2018 So far, I have, on more than one occasion, been rather unimpressed by the spread at Shangri-La’s Table One, so I was hoping (although I had heard otherwise) that Shang Palace might leave a better impression. The restaurant occupies a rather large…
