CHANAS



I have had CHANAS food before. 

but i think the food tasted way better then than now. 

so i got this 3.5 🌟IFTHAR box for LKR9,960 includes for 4PAX

Chicken porridge
Punjabi samosa 
chicken lollipop
Mini tikka chicken swarmer 
chicken biryani gulabjamun 
falooda 200ml 



The box was well packed, and that's how the spread looked. 

 


best of the entire meal was 5🌟the Kanji, it did not have that coconut creamy texture unlike the other iftar i had tried, it was runnier but had broken wheat for texture, and spicy as well and the meat chunks too was sufficient. 

The 5🌟gulabjamun was soft, not overly sweet, and tasted and smelled like roses and saffron. and again the downside was it was small and we needed more! least two each. ( Ps when i saw the tiny containers though there were all gulabjamun but I felt let down, when i saw it was the sauce for the samosa and the Ritha for the biryani! 

3✨Faluda had too much of rose/almond essence, I'm not sure it also had shredded coconut bits, plenty of almonds but was too sweet. 
 



The 3✨chicken lollipop was a letdown because 4 is insufficient; it teases your taste buds and leaves you hanging. We got more than 4 dates. No complaints since it was what was expected as I don't like 4 🌟vegetarian samosas that are packed with potatoes. 
 



The 3.5🌟chicken tikka shawarma was great and had meat that was tender and had a more sour flavor. It was also a little oily, as if it were dripping with oil. 

The 4*🌟biryani, on the other hand, exceeded expectations by far. It appeared to be quite spicy and oily, yet the flavor was mild. it proved that looks can be deceiving.

FUN FACT 
Where did biryani come from originally?
Image result for biriyani origin
Iran
There can be little doubt that biriyani originated in Iran. Even the name biriyani can be traced to the original Persian "birinj biriyan" - literally, fried rice.

5🤩 Crystal Prawn Dumpling LKR1500  MUST TRY  🤤 Simple but i loved it! Glistening in a pearl-like sheet, these dumplings are a visual feast. Delicately wrapped, each bite reveals a succulent prawn, offering a taste as light as the ocean breeze. 5🌟 Chicken Scallops and Chives Dumpling LKR1500 Shaped like an ear, with a slight roast enhancing the hidden, lightly flavored meatball. A vibrant presentation adds to the overall experience. 🤩 Sweet and Sour Garupa LKR7000  MUST TRY  The star of the table, initially intimidating with its head and eyes. Despite the initial scare, guests devoured it like a salad. Fried in a light batter with a golden syrup bath, the fish body surprises with a bone-free, crunchy delight. The hint of pineapple, sweet corn, and the crunch of bell pepper leave you yearning for more. 🤩 XO Fried Rice with Scallops and Prawns LKR2900  MUST TRY  A loaded delight with prawns and egg, making additional side dishes nearly obsolete. 5 ⭐️ Sich...

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. The first Shangri-La hotel debuted in Singapore in 1971, and since then the company has grown to include hotels all over the world under its renowned luxury hotel brand. Consequently, you will find some foreign chefs and management maintaining the international standards and it also  adds a Singaporean and Hong Kong touch in their menu. Even tho...

Manjal

OVERALL MANJAL IS A MUST TRY EXPERIENCE TO HAVE  Despite the fact that I am of Indian descent, as a child i did not particularly enjoy India or Chennai for that matter, because of how dirty and dusty the roads were and how many residents resemble the villains from Tamil film. Now i have matured far from that mind set :)  TOTAL BILL FOR 4 ADULTS - INR 2895.00 The MANJAL genuine south Indian restaurant is located in Poes Garden, which seemed to be the only street with trees and had a pleasant atmosphere. I initially saw that all the food items were being presented to a local god as soon as we arrived after being cordially greeted. The menu was brought out as we seated, then a man entered with the food trays that I had seen on display and read out the titles so we could select, and ask questions about the food. ( i must admit he was quite fast so do pay attention)  Rasam was excellent and mild—very unlike Tamil Nadu or Sri Lankan cuisine. I believe I was hoping for a heavier...
