Review by a LK

  Interior  The diner exudes a cozy ambiance with hip music that sets a relaxed vibe. Staff  The staff was exceptionally courteous and friendly, creating a warm atmosphere. 4⭐️Shredded Rotisserie Chicken, Melted Swiss, Caramelized Onions Sandwich - 1,850.00   A focaccia bread sandwich filled with shredded rotisserie chicken, melted Swiss cheese, and caramelized onions (seeni sambol). It's not spicy as I expected, but the fragrant spices and the sweet-salty flavor from the onions make it delightful. 3⭐️Lychee & Melon - 990.00   Lacked presentation but A refreshing combination of fresh watermelon and canned lychee, offering a pleasant sweetness. I'll definitely order this  3⭐️Rotisserie Chicken Fried Rice - 1,360.00  This dish featured soy sauce-infused rice with bits of shredded chicken. A simple yet satisfying meal. 5🤩(MUST TRY) Hot Honey - 2,150.00  🌶️ Boneless chicken strips, perfectly crispy with a corn starch batter, drenched in a sticky, chili-infused honey sauce. Wo

Something unnoticed at “chutney’s” is that it used less salt unlike other restaurants, which is a good thing in my opinion  4⭐️Milk Shake Chocolate 900   Even though presentation was lacking, the chocolate milkshake was perfect—definitely worth reordering.  4⭐️Panna 850   Not everyone’s cup of tea, if your feeling a bit adventurous, go for it This sweet and sour raw mango drink, enhanced with amchoor for a tangy twist, sometimes includes lemon juice, which can impart an unusual aroma. I’d order this again for its unique flavor. 4⭐️Nandu Poriyal 1380   Generous portions of crab meat tempered with mustard and onions. Quite enjoyable. But I might order this again  5🤩Onion Garam Pakoda 1080   MUST TRY These spicy, batter-fried onions were incredibly crunchy and delicious. Despite being vegetarian, the magic lies in the batter. Highly recommended! 2.5✨Prawn Masala Dosa 1680   This dish fell short of my expectations. The masala was present, but the flavor was flat and somewhat sandy, oversh

  4⭐️Ice Ginger Latte (Coffee Based) - LKR 790 This refreshing drink, made with fresh ginger, offered a novel experience for me. It had a robust coffee flavor perfectly balanced with just the right amount of fresh ginger, served cold. You can actually taste the grated ginger pieces; some might not prefer this, but I love to chew on them. I'll definitely reorder this.

Happy Hour (Buy 1 Get 1 Free) 3.5⭐️Pink Cooler - LKR 1,600   This drink looked appealing but came with less ice than pictured and tasted overly sweet. It seemed to primarily consist of Sprite, strawberry purée, and vodka. I’m not likely to order this again  only Cz it’s super sweet for me.  4.5⭐️Bayleaf Breeze - LKR 1,600   This cocktail is similar to a piña colada but with blue curaçao. The combination of ingredients was perfect. I will definitely reorder this. 3.5 ⭐️Gamberetti con Funghi - LKR 2,400   This dish features mushrooms and prawns pan-fried in a creamy garlic sauce, topped with a grilled garlic gratin and sweet cheese. The initial bite was quite creamy with a hint of cheese, but it unexpectedly reminded me of canned tuna. (Sri Lankan tin salmon) The mushroom texture was present, but the taste was oddly different. The bread was somewhat doughy, leading me to question if it was truly grilled. I might not order this again. 3.5 ⭐️Pizza BBQ 12" - LKR 2,550   This thin-crust

  With VAT the total bill for the above drinks were 2709/-  3.5⭐️Today's Special - 1017:  A refreshing blend of cucumber with a hint of lemon and a touch of mint! This drink is 50% less likely to be reordered. May be a lot of lemon would have made it better  4.5🌟Layards Lemonade - 1272:   An invigorating mix of lime, narang, lemon, ambul dodang, and activated charcoal, delivering a flavor reminiscent of blackcurrant juice. This one is a definite must-try and a sure reorder! 4⭐️Thambili - LKR 765   Fresh coconut water with diced coconut flesh. Definitely a reorder. 4⭐️Spicy Tiger - LKR 1280   A blend of pineapple, orange, chili, and thambili with a moderate sweetness and a pleasant touch of chili flakes. Will reorder for sure. Can bring out acid reflux so careful 

4⭐️Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate - LKR 1485   Creamy hot chocolate enriched with rich peanut butter, a favorite for peanut lovers. No extra sugar needed.  4⭐️Café Mocha - LKR 935 This drink had a robust coffee flavor with a delightful chocolate aftertaste.  

  5⭐️Layards Double Beef Burger - LKR 3,010 The super soft burger bun melts in your mouth, complemented by sour pickles, tomatoes, and a creamy dressing. The double beef patty, jutting out invitingly, begs for a bite—and it delivers. Delicious and juicy, this is a must-try. 5⭐️ Beef Shawarma - Classic - LKR 1,825 The Arabic bread is incredibly soft, unlike any I've had before. The beef shawarma features flavorful chunks of beef with a spicy, tangy dressing and crunchy onions, creating a delightful taste and texture. I prefer the beef shawarma over the chicken.

Even though I fully support recycling, I find it hard to eat meat with wooden utensils. May be using silver cutlery will be fine, least when you eat meat items with bones.  And the washbasin is outside the premises, which is quite annoying, imagine you are with hands and you have to walk all the way to the other end to wash hands passing all the shoppers! (Quite embarrassing)  4.5🌟Prawn Rice & Curry - 1,356 I absolutely loved it! The prawns were incredibly fresh and impeccably cleaned, with all the guts meticulously removed. The curries were delightful, leaving nothing to be desired. It tasted just as amazing as it looked! After three days here, I can confidently say the moju is a definite crowd favorite. Vat 473/- was added to the above total bill For rice and curry  4⭐️Layards Wharf - South Asian Cuisine Chicken Biriyani - LKR 2458   This dish featured boneless, heavily marinated chicken cubes. Unlike typical biriyani, it was moist and infused with flavorful gravy throughout, th

  4⭐️Thai Red Curry Chicken Bowl - LKR 1272  A rich and creamy red curry chicken served with green beans slightly tempered with garlic, on a bed of Basmati rice. The boneless chicken cubes were slightly overcooked and tough, but the authentic creamy Thai flavor compensated for this. I will definitely reorder this. 5⭐️Korean Crispy Chicken Drumlets (6 Pcs) - LKR 1055 (MUST TRY)   Deep-fried to perfection, these drumlets are coated in a crispy batter and tossed in their house-made Korean sauce. The result is a sticky, sweet, and tangy taste to drool at, that offers an excellent alternative to the original crispy drumlets. A must-try. 👩‍💻FUN FACT  the British Curry may be thought of as any Indian or Indian-style dish, usually with a sauce. But it is not a concept well recognised in India despite many Indian dishes fitting this description. It really began with the British, resident in India during the 18th and 19th centuries.
