  5 🤩Complimentary Bread  They offer complimentary freshly baked rough-cut slices with balsamic vinegar and olive oil, which paired perfectly with the bread. The crust had a slight bitterness, while the oil and vinegar added a tangy touch that left us wanting more. 4⭐️Penne Arrabbiata – 2700/- (with added prawns – 1100/-) Bronze-dye penne dressed in a spiced tomato sauce, with a subtle sourness that grows on the palate. However, I didn't notice any fresh basil as mentioned in the menu. 2⭐️Campari Spritz – 2900/- This drink was dreadful; I will never order it again. I dislike bitter alcohol, and this mix of Campari and Prosecco, which should have sweet notes with plain soda, tasted off. It seemed like it was mixed with tonic water instead, leaving a bitter aftertaste reminiscent of childhood fever medicine. 5🤩Ravioli Ricotta – 3500/- (MUST TRY) Homemade ravioli stuffed with creamy spinach and ricotta, drizzled with a luscious butter and sage sauce topped with Grana Padano.

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 chicken or tuna flakes—was

  5🤩Indonesian nasi goreng 1980/- (seafood)  Comes with chicken satay which was juicy and tender unlike other places I have tried, peanut sauce and fried egg. Plenty of prawn crackers and a small size of picked vegetables which went well with the rice.  Rice was very color full and had a spicy hearty flavor which I will definitely order again.  4⭐️Pan fried gratin sea bass fillet 2760/-  Comes with sautéed mushroom, spinash creamy mash, buttered seasonal vegetables & garlic lemon butter sauce.  The fish fillet was covered with the creamy mushroom and butter sauce that I was confused, as what on the fish.  Buttered vegetables and mash was on point, not as cheesy as the Marriott mash that I tried, no cheese = better heath 😂 Yes I’ll order this again!  Gross 5160/-  Tax 10% SSCL 2.5% Vat 15%  Net 6865/-  FUN FACT 👩‍💻 Nasi goreng is highly influenced by the Chinese immigrants in Indonesia. Historically, Chinese people usually favor freshly cooked hot food, and it is taboo in their

  4⭐️Mulligatawny Soup – 450/- This soup offered a delightful lentil creaminess, infused with a subtle hint of Asian spices that lingered pleasantly on the palate. However, the addition of cooked rice, reminiscent of a kanda, was an unexpected twist. 3.5⭐️Paper Dosa – 420/- The dosa was perfectly crispy, accompanied by two types of chutney with a semi runny sambar, Although both chutneys could have used a bit more salt, they were still enjoyable and worth the price! FUN FACT 👩‍💻 What is the origin of dosa? However, according to historian P. Thankappan Nair, dosa originated in the town of Udupi in present-day Karnataka. Achaya states that the earliest written mention of dosa appears in the 8th-century literature of present-day Tamil Nadu, while the earliest mention of dosa in Kannada literature appears a century later.

A tad bit spicy nothing a Sri Lankan can’t handle already.  3⭐️Basbosa - 450/- A delicate dessert crafted from semolina and baked to perfection. Lightly sweetened with fragrant syrup. Not a wow dessert but a nice one.  📝 I will definitely order the shawarma again. 🤩 FUN FACT 👩‍💻 What is the history of revani cake? One of the jewels of Turkish dessert culture, Revani has a fascinating historical journey rooted in the culinary traditions of the Ottoman Empire. The name “Revani” is believed to be of Persian origin and means a dessert that invigorates the senses.
