KUURAKU Japanese restaurant




TOTAL BILL for 2 ADULTS LKR 31,800/- including taxes 


  • Dimly lit ambiance 
  • All guests are greeted by staff in Japanese
  • Chandru is very helpful.
  • Restrooms that are tidy



GEKKEIK SAKE 150ml LKR 3400/- 

compared to other alcohol This surprised me by being smooth and delicious! It pleased me.




MAGURO & SALMON ASHIMI 5 pc Each LKR 6000/-

It includes raw salmon and tuna.

If you've never tried eating raw fish, I recommend starting with salmon since it has a more pleasant, creamy melt-in-your-mouth feel than red tuna. Compared to the other fish, tuna is a little bit stronger and chewier.


SPICY SALMON ROLL 4pc  LKR 1580/- 

The creamy smoothness of the salmon complements the spiciness of the mayo. included some crunchy chunks, which was a wonderful touch.

🌶SPICY TUNA ROLL 4pc LKR 1580/- 

This was distinctive to this restaurant because it was so hot, like naimiris had been added. nonetheless, it was tasty.




GRILLED TUNA ROLL 4pc LKR 980/- 

This came seasoned with black sesame seeds. The filling reminded me of a tuna mayo sandwich which had some crunchy cucumbers or celery. A bit goo Daly got my taste 





CRUNCHY PRAWN 4pc LKR 1280/- 

This was also quite good, and what made it special was the addition of crispy tempura flakes. A sweet sauce was added to the flakes to improve them further.

UDON NOODLE SEAFOOD LKR 3220/- 

This flavorful thick noodle soup had full of texture. 

It had a strong soy/fish odor and, in my opinion, was somewhat too salty (as expected in a seafood noodle)



HOTPOT SEAFOOD- 5850/- (for 1 pax) 

Well, be warned—you're about to get your hands on deck experience. 😅


I was given a wet tissue but no apron, it was entertaining to pout the tissue ball and watch it expand when the water hit it. (also known as coin towel, used to wipe the hand before and after) 


A stove was also placed on the extremely small table. (our table for 2) 


Returning to the soup, it had a whole crab, two prawns, and mostly vegetables with a few button mushrooms in a pot of chicken stock. let it boil.

I was served another bowl of noodle LKR 220/-  as to fill me up with the seafood broth. 


MATCHA ICE CREAM 1 scoop LKR 920/- 

 The sweetness level has to be adjusted to accommodate Sri Lankan palates.

Central all day dining- Shangrila buffet

New year dinner for 4 pax without taxes - 50,000/- (12,500 per person)  It was undoubtedly a crowded evening at the Central Cafe in Shangila. We had booked appointments to eat there during the celebrations for the new year. As in usual days they have a variety of menu, but they yet again made it extravagant.  There were several meat carvings, including hog, turkey, and fish, along with a wide selection of sauces, veggies, pickles, and condiments and not mention the ice carvings that one can admire inclusive a cheese fountain.      In 1971, Malaysian entrepreneur Robert Kuok introduced the Shangri-La chain of hotels.
