Isso (II)
Located at: 53 Ananda Coomaraswamy Mawatha, Colombo 03, Sri Lanka Visited on: 14 August, 2023 My previous review of Isso, five years ago, focused on two dishes that were on their menu at the time. I can’t say that I was entirely taken up by the food, but it was alright and earned a yummy…
Grillo’s
Located at: 78 Rosmead Place, Colombo 07, Sri Lanka Visited on: 03rd August, 2023 They had me at shawarma.

Located at: Uga Residence, 20 Park Street, Colombo 02, Sri Lanka Visited on: 29th July, 2023 Uga Residence at night is a striking sight to take in, particularly the courtyard, which houses a fairly large pool, and its surroundings – lined by an old-style bar on one side, Rare on one side, and an elegant passage…
The Coffee Craft
Located at: 55 St. Anthony’s Mawatha, Colombo 03, Sri Lanka Visited on: 13th July, 2023 Quite a charming find this turned out to be! The Coffee Craft is quietly tucked away on a by-lane off R.

Located at: Galadari Hotel, 64 Lotus Road, Colombo 01, Sri Lanka Visited on: 01st June, 2023 To kick our evening off at Ginza Hohsen, we ordered a couple of fresh juices – Lime (LKR 550) and Pineapple (LKR 650), both of which were good. Neither had sugar added and the lime juice came with sugar syrup…
Yumi
Located at: Taj Samudra, 25 Galle Face Center Road, Colombo 08, Sri Lanka Visited on: 11th March, 2023 I have heard much positive feedback on Yumi, Taj Samudra’s Japanese restaurant, and tonight it was time to give it a shot myself.

t-Lounge by Dilmah’s Dessert Bar
Located at: 100 Horton Place, Colombo 07, Sri Lanka Visited on: 17th February & 05th March, 2023 If there’s one thing that the new t-Lounge by Dilmah on Horton Place intends to do, it is to spoil you with their array of decadent – and extremely eye-catching – desserts. In fact, they have a separate dessert…
