Located at: 38 Ward Place, Colombo 07, Sri Lanka Visited on: 15 Mar, 2018 The quirky name of this place was the first thing to catch my eye. And a look-up online revealed an equally quirky-looking menu. We dropped in at lunch time on a relentlessly hot day, and although I do regard that the extensive…

Special Edition: Kottu Fest at The Curry Leaf
Located at: Hilton Colombo, 2 Sir Chittampalam A Gardiner Mawatha, Colombo 02, Sri Lanka Visited on: 10 Mar, 2018 Here’s a food fest that’s still on at the time of publishing this article – the Kottu Fest at Hilton’s The Curry Leaf restaurant, from the 7th to the 17th of March, 2018. I was pretty keen…
Cilantro
Located at: 70 Porutota Road, Negombo, Sri Lanka Visited on: 04 Mar, 2018 This is where a spontaneous decision to dine in Negombo took us. Apart from having the name of one of my favourite cooking ingredients, the place looked different to most other restaurants on the bustling touristy street. Spacious, airy, well-lit and neat….
Plunkett Posh Kottu
Located at: 375 R. A. de Mel Mawatha, Colombo 03, Sri Lanka Visited on: 16 Feb, 2018 I was somewhat intrigued by the name of this place. ‘Plunkett’ and ‘Posh’ are not quite the sort of name and adjective one would associate with ‘Kottu’. So, I decided to give it a shot. It was a take-away…
Sushi Bar Samurai – Negombo
Located at: Porutota Road, Negombo, Sri Lanka Visited on: 11 Feb, 2018 Negombo’s restaurant is the older of the two Sushi Bar Samurai restaurants operating in the country. Located on the very touristy Porutota Road, the glass panels lining the restaurant give it an on-the-street feel while still maintaining a niche-like ambiance. Although it does have…
Wijaya Beach
Located at: Dalawella, Unawatuna, Sri Lanka Visited on: 27 Jan, 2018 Island vibes is what this place is about. A narrow strip of beach for a backyard, staff mostly in shorts, skinnies and flip-flops, patrons lounging around in their swimwear, colourful pennants hung around, and reggae remixes of popular tracks playing in the background (the…
Sugar Bistro @ The Promenade
Located at: The Promenade, Odel, 5 Alexandra Place, Colombo 07, Sri Lanka Visited on: 10 Jan, 2018 The idea was to go to Sugar Bistro at Crescat Boulevard. However, since it was already lunch time and we didn’t want to crawl (and battle) through the school traffic from Odel to Galle – as short a…
Flamingo House
Located at: 58A Horton Place, Colombo 07, Sri Lanka Visited on: 27 Dec, 2017 One thing that’s bound to catch your eye as you walk into Flamingo House is the interior of the place. Previously a more modest extension to Gerard Mendis Chocolatier, the restaurant part has changed hands over the years with the chocolatier/patisserie still…
Zen @ Zylan Boutique Hotel
Located at: 115 Rosmead Place, Colombo 07, Sri Lanka Visited on: 16 Dec, 2017 Let me begin by saying that Zylan Boutique Hotel, at which Zen is located, is beautiful. Elegant, romantic and serenely decorated. Being the Christmas season, it had been adorned further with some tasteful décor. It was on the verge of less-is-more,…
Romana Pizza Ristorante @ K-Zone Ja-ela (Part 02)
Located at: Ground Floor, K-zone Ja-ela, 525 Negombo Road, Ja-ela, Sri Lanka Visited on: 09 Nov, 2017 I decided to give the new place a second shot. Two types of pizzas, take away again. This time my first pick was Siciliana – with salami, capers, anchovies and black olives (LKR 1,450 for Medium 13”). The first…
