Capital Bar & Grill @ Shangri-La Colombo

Located at: 2, 1 Colombo, Colombo 02, Sri Lanka Visited on: 25 Sep, 2019 Capital Bar & Grill is located at the far end of Shangri-La Colombo’s ground floor and has an interesting set-up.

Cheers @ Cinnamon Grand

Located at: 77 Galle Road, Colombo 03, Sri Lanka Visited on: 22 Jul, 2019 This classic sports bar is always abuzz when there’s any significant sporting event happening anywhere around the world. That aside, it’s also a pretty chilled out spot for a bit of lunch, evening snack or dinner. They dish out your typical…

Colombo Fort Café

Located at: Old Dutch Hospital Complex Echelon Square, Hospital St, Colombo 01, Sri Lanka Visited on: 19 Jul, 2019 This visit came quite a long time after the last one, and I was harbouring fond memories of a few tasty dishes I’d had here before.

Arcadia Café and Restaurant

Located at: No. 9/7 16th Lane, Marine Drive, Colombo 03, Sri Lanka Visited on: 20 Feb, 2019 Here’s another young restaurant/café that’s been painting the pages of Instagram in sweet and savoury tones.

Santina @ Mövenpick Colombo

Located at: 24 Srimath Anagarika Dharmapala Mawatha, Colombo 03, Sri Lanka Visited on: 25 Oct, 2018 This Mediterranean restaurant was opened quite recently, and I’d made a mental note to check it out some time. So, we stopped for lunch as we were passing by. We tried out two dishes on the day, and while we…

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…

Isso

Located at: 53 Ananda Coomaraswamy Mawatha, Colombo 03, Sri Lanka Visited on: 14 Oct, 2018 Their new flagship restaurant on Ananda Coomaraswamy Mawatha is modernly eye-catching and stood out noticeably against the dim late evening. We were contemplating a snack and ended up stopping for an early dinner. At Isso, you can either make your…
