| For those longing for a taste of home, western food is common in Sri lanka. If you are looking for something more authentic try a typical Sri Lankan curry and rice meal. The curry comes in mild, medium and hot and includes a few different varieties of sambals as well as chutney and pickles. It is traditionaly eaten with the fingers of the right hand but it is perfectly acceptable to ask for a spoon or fork. |

The owner is funny and charming and he works hard to keep everyone happy. On our last trip we planed to try many restaurants but ended up eating all but one night there. Give it a try it's just opposite the Camalot hotel and close to Browns beach and Goldi sands. |
