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 salad provided a burst of flavor.

Green Beans: Slightly buttered with a hint of garlic. Loved the crispness, though more beans would've been great.

Caramelized Squash: Sweet, but still had sugar crystals, not fully caramelized. Almonds added a milky crunch, reminiscent of manioc or bathala.

Overall, it felt like a wholesome meal with a dessert-like quality. Perfect for a special occasion, like Christmas. 🍽️

🤩TUNA NICOSE LKR 1780/-

Surprise met delight when I encountered a plate of sushi with a fiery twist. Raw fish, wrapped in a delicate peppery embrace, was a tantalizing start to the meal. Though it consisted of just four petite pieces, each bite carried a burst of flavor.

Accompanied by tiny, delicate quail eggs, their taste reminiscent of beautifully fermented delicacies, and fresh, crisp greens generously coated in a creamy, runny dressing, this dish left me in culinary awe. The ensemble was further elevated with the addition of plump cherry tomatoes and anchovies, their flavors carrying the essence of exquisite fermentation, creating a perfect harmony of sweet and salty notes that played a symphony on my taste buds. In my book, it's a resounding 10/10 - a dish that left an indelible mark.

Lake side club salad

Well I was surprised at the amount of French fries it had! And the club was very good too. 1st thing I checked if the tomatoes were good, as once I had gotten some bad tomatoes as a side salad for a biriyani. But this was good and well worth the price!

Kaikos - No tax

Brightly lit and featuring a play area for kids with various toys and activities, this space aims to evoke nostalgia with its old Sinhala songs reminiscent of an old Kade. Staff Are nice and welcoming 3.5 ⭐️ Salmon Cheese Sandwich (700/-) A basic sandwich served hot, with the perfect amount of spice. Although the cheese was hardly noticeable, I'll definitely order this again. 4.5 ⭐️ Latte (650/-) A perfectly crafted, regular latte without sugar. It’s just right. 4 ⭐️ Coconut Latte (750/-) I initially thought this would be made with coconut milk, but it’s a regular latte topped with desiccated coconut flakes. Slightly sweeter than the regular latte, it's pleasant but not something I’d order again. 3⭐️Club Sandwich – 1000/- The fries accompanying the sandwich had an unpleasant aftertaste, suggesting that the oil used for frying was subpar. The sandwich itself fell short of a true club sandwich. While it featured multiple layers, the meat—possibly ...
