Located at: 98 Horton Place, Colombo 07, Sri Lanka Visited on: 20th July, 2024 Siam House’s recently-opened flagship restaurant at Horton Place is hard to miss.

The Euro Diaries: Ristorante Antico Brolo in Padua
Located at: 22 Corso Milano, Padova, Italy Visited on: 29th April & 01st May, 2024 This isn’t a rated review, but an acknowledgement of a great find in Padova city.

Located at: 33 Queen’s Road, Colombo 03, Sri Lanka Visited on: 10th February, 2024 We do love a bit of Thai every now and then, and Thai Boulevard – with a change of chef and the likes – did very well to satisfy our cravings. We started off with a few thirst-quenching fresh juices. The Local…

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.

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…
Blue Tan
Located at: Heritance Negombo, 175 Lewis Place, Negombo, Sri Lanka Visited on: 28th July, 2023 There’s a serenity about Heritance Negombo’s lobby that soothes you as you enter the space. Perhaps it’s the combination of the mellow wall colour, the imposing but zen interior décor pieces and the window walls that inadvertently teleport you beyond the…
