Cinnamon lake side - sandwich bar at goodies

Step 1 - select the bread  Step 2 - Select the spread  Step 3 - select the veggies                                    Step 4 - they will assemble the sandwich for you                                                             This sandwich below is filled  5🌟bright tandoori paneer, LKR 800  which tasted so good, it had the taste of cheese that had absorbed all that spice and tandoori, for the bread I chose a onion focaccia bread, and of course the salad on the side, this time it was a boy who served me, so I guess he thought I don't need the grilled veggies 🙁   FUN FACT  What is the difference between focaccia and regular bread? Focaccia is baked at 475 degrees Fahrenheit, while the baking temperature for traditional bread is 248 degrees Fahrenheit. Focaccia does not get stale easily due to the high quantity of olive oil and other herbs, while traditional bread does. Regular bread is less expensive and has less gluten than focaccia 5🌟Tuna sandwich   The spread was very rich an

Lake side room service

    4🌟🌶Their biryani is one of our fav, it has adequate amount of shrimp, inkling of spice. comes with raitha and fresh side salad. (this the side salad was a bit rotten, so beware before serving.  This kothu too had reasonable amount of prawns, the paratha was a bit dry, it had a creamy gravy with hint of spice for Sri Lankan standard.   Chappathi LKR 690 3 pcs in a set  They came warm and soft, pretty much healthy I guess just the way I wanted FISH TIKKA LKR 2120   MUST TRY  This was simply  amazing, filled with Indian spices, and the texture super creamy with around 6 pcs of boneless fish cubes!! gosh I'm drooling as I think of it! TIP: Ask for some lime wedges and squeeze them over the chapati or the gravy, it enhance the flavor of the dish tremendously  ⭐️Dish: Healthy Fit (LKR 2750) Description: Main Course: Slow-cooked chicken supreme, paired with mixed green beans, caramelized squash with almonds. Thoughts: Chicken: Tender, but lightly seasoned. The tomato and onion sala

Indulge Desserts Co.

I always wanted to visit indulgence desserts, and today was the day! once you enter there is the counter that you order the food, and then one can be seated up stairs.  So we got the 4 🌟 Ferrero bubble waffle sensation LKR 1500 My friend claimed the bubble waffle was a bit undercooked as she is waffle fan,  Everything else was good in proportions.  I got my self a 4🌟Oreo waffle stick with Nutella LKR 800 This was a good balance of Oreo (of which I’m not a fan of) and Nutella  so far the items we tried seemingly good,  Will I try this again? Yes   

Thotupola lakeside - a day trip

Since I am attached to a collage we organized a quick day trip, the coach we arranged to travel was very comfortable and clean, but too fancy for such a short trip! The hotel was filled with flora & fauna and there was a cleared area for play, and far out was the pound. the pond of course was I felt it was dirty, as the water was a bit stagnant.  property was quite huge, thing to be noted was that they had taken pictures of their staff and hung them around the property as a work of art.  so after the welcome drink we got to do some warm up exercises to get ready for the rock climbing   After the warm up, they explained about the rock climbing gear, and told that it was very safe. Only two at a time were possible to do the game while the others cheered for the participants. even the girls were interested.    This activity was done by one of the staff, mostly in Sinhala and it was fun, yes we are not dressed appropriately for this climb as mostly the girls didn't know what to wea

Taste of India + sc 10%

Very cute and arty Indian restaurant, it’s not a elegant restaurant, but more of earthy and colorful like a fun village atmosphere.  let's get to the food now as when we ordered this meal we were starving! 4⭐️Samosa Chaat  (500/-) This popular Indian street snack was a nice combination of crunchy samosa shell, chickpeas, and the sweet-sour burst of yogurt, mint, and tamarind chutney. These elements created a flavorful balance,  😫😫but the experience was marred by hygiene concerns when I noticed the server handling food with bare hands—a major downside for this venue 4⭐️Butter Chicken Masala  (1800/-) The butter chicken offered a creamy, rich texture with tender, boneless pieces, capturing the classic indulgent flavor of this dish. The sauce was smooth and comforting, a reliable choice 5🤩Palak Paneer  (900/-)  (MUST TRY) Despite its vibrant green appearance, often off-putting to first-timers, this palak paneer was exceptionally well-prepared. The flavors were rich, smooth, and per
