Review by a LK

The day we went they just opened right after Eid, so less staff. Also the upstairs was closed and down stairs had limited seating and AC was off. So very hot!  Staff was courteous as he was the only one serving.  I had asked for Kashmiri children kothu but ended up with above.  3⭐️Cheese Masala Kottu 1790/-  I was looking for something spicy so when you see red your brain says it good. Tasting while it’s hot was nice, cooled kothu.. not recommended  I won’t order this again, my partner ofcourse likes it.  4⭐️Dubai style shawarma 1190/-  This was large, can you imagine how small the Medium would have been!  The description said it’s spicy. But this was just bland, but the stuffing was sufficient and the wrap was flakey and soft. I might try this again. But I’ll ask them to make it extra spicy for me!    

  The best gift ideas ever  Easy and convenient!  4⭐️Fruit cake  Canned peaches, this fruit cake is good and soft and ever so fruity I had it in the fridge for over a week! And still it was nice 🫣 4⭐️Sticky date cake  A bit denser than the other cakes and sweeter, but that soft caramel topping was the real game changer for this cake! 

 Did you check out the ifthar menu at @pastamaniasrilanka?  It’s a pretty good deal,  2 pasta to choose 2 flooda included  2 water bottle  1 small bowl of dates Including the tax bill was 3674/-  They have 4types of pasta to choose from penne, spaghetti, linguine  Creamy Chicken Pasta 1550/-  Again this was nice and creamy enough. This was my friends fav.  Kid friendly for sure.  Spicy Chieken - 1790/-  This was nice and I didn’t extra cheese, I borrowed from the condiments that was already provided😉 As a Sri Lankan this was not at all spicy for me.  flooda This was sweet! And nice dollop of ice cream and all The works. I thoroughly enjoyed it.  👩‍💻FUN FACT  Linguine, which means “little tongues” in Italian, is a long, flat pasta that falls somewhere between spaghetti and fettuccine in thickness. It is thinner than ...

Indulge in a feast of authentic flavours and elevate your experience this Ramadhan! Priced At Rs. 3500/= Only 👉Short eats  Samosa was nice,  Tool can be better  👉Faluda Regular version (plesent)  👉Kanji  Loved the kanji (but Muslim friend didn’t because the rice that was used was different)  👉Biriyani  It was nice and fragrant with a price of chicken per box, so for three people?  May be added a bit more condiments, the pack would have been nicer!  Flavor profile if the biriyani for me was boring, as it didn’t have the kick that I expected, but my Muslim friend said this is how authentic biriyani will be. So I’ll take her work for it.   👉Desserts  Was a milk pudding a bit runny and very sweet!  Will I buy this again?  May be to share with friends, as it’s affor...

 10% service charge on the final bill  It’s a nice ambiance with a karaoke nights available even on weekdays.  ✍️ a few more fans to cool the place will be a good option, as it’s VERY HUMID and HOT June rainy season is a bearable here.  🤩Pan Fried Barramundi. 2950/-   loved the baby potato’s and the green beans drenched in butter. The fish grilled to perfection definitely a repeat of mine.  🤩 Creamy Chili Prawn Penne 2650/-  Creamy and and all flavors points were covered, will try this again  FISH BURGER - R$.2,450 panko crusted fish fillet, homemade tartar sauce & homemade burger bun Super crispy fish fillet, 1st bite was good, but as I ate more of with the sweet pickled onions and all, not to my palate of spice especially when I just came back from Vietnam.  and I requested a green chili, but I got fermented chili with Chinese pepper, which was not the best of what I wanted hence why i don’t think lp Order this a...

Golden Dragon at Taj Samudra: An Exceptional Dining Experience My visit to  Golden Dragon , Taj Samudra, was truly memorable, thanks to the outstanding service by  Kasun . His ability to anticipate our needs was remarkable, providing polite and attentive service without being intrusive. From the moment we sat down, he ensured our comfort, starting with fragrant  jasmine tea  and  jaggery-coated cashews . The tea was delightful and continually refreshed, setting the perfect tone for the meal. Kimchi is always there in dinner tables  Jaggery coated cashews  This is a seasonal buffet they offered, and I think is a great deal.  This was a vodka based cocktail, but it was very very sweet! Not my liking at all. But it’s included in the offer so I tried it.  CHICKEN SUI MAI 2500/-  But like a open meatball, went well with the soy sauce  WATER CHESTNUTS, ASPARAGUS AND BABY CORN DUMPLING 2500/- This was excellent, and very delicate, the flav...

I have visited there twice, and both times it’s not a packed place, very out doorish, yes you get mosquitoes. And it’s not rain friendly. But very courteous people and staff  Let’s talk about food  4⭐️Mixed Grill - Rs. 5,900 A hearty spread of slow-grilled meats, seasoned with a blend of herbs and sauces. This platter features two whole chicken legs, a beef chop, 2 sausages, mashed potatoes, coleslaw, sweet pickles (was missing), and garlic bread. The highlight was undoubtedly the beef chop, cooked to a tender medium rare as recommended, which perfectly retained its juiciness and flavor. The other components, while satisfying, were fairly standard and didn’t quite stand out as much.
