4🌟Prawn Dum Biryani 1880/- perfect aromatic biriyani

FUN FACT 👩‍💻

The origins of dum biryani are linked to Persia and the Mughal Empire, and have evolved over time.

3⭐️Milk Sarbath 750/-

It’s a lot of milk and not enough saeubath, opposite of a faluda.

2 ✨Pineapple juice 650/- (not worth the price)

I had asked without sugar, but this was too much water so I wouldn’t recommend to have pineapple juice.

3⭐️Lime Juice 500/- (is not my fav drink)

Obviously, Fresh lemon was involved, an obvious I asked without sugar, so it was undrinkable for me. It’s my own fault.

4⭐️Lime W Ginger Beer 600/-

homemade ginger beer this had enough sugar on its own and frankly tasted better than the lime juice

3.5⭐️Nool Parotta (2 pc) 350/-

Pretty much falling apart like the name suggested

3.5⭐️Naan Rotti Basket (Variety) 1, 400/-

Had a naan dusted in chili powder (it was not spicy)

🤩Chicken Chettinad 1700/-

Loved the color and the combination of spices, and had just enough Heat

🙋‍♀️ MY POV

Let’s get into details

The paratha was soft and warm, and it’s only available after 6.30 which is not at all convenient.

We ordered the spices fish, but for my LK standard this was mild

5MEEN VANJAARAM CURRY LKR 1500

The curry is thick and delicious, perfectly spicy and tangy with red chilli and tamarind, along with the sweetness of coconut.

A wedge of like would really enhance the flavor more which we did not ask, so try and leave a comment.

Carrot halwa LKR 600 is a MUST TRY

I know I’m always compiling about the sugar! But this high level of sweetness is worth it!

This tasted like a milk peda, but mushy warm and squiggly! It was very therapeutic to just squish it around, the smell and taste was heaven!

4️Masala chai LKR 180

RFI

It was not hot,

It was sugarless

Masala chai had strong taste of Clove, with undertones of the rest of the spices like cinnamon and cardamom.

MY POV

I think tea and coffee needed to be made and given than adding the ingredients ourselves.

Even a tiny bit of sugar added to the tea.. would make a big difference.

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...

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 ...

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.
