Layards wharf (Japanese havelock)

🤩Spicy tuna Maki LKR 1910/- 8pc  This was very good. They had a spicy tuna extra on top of the maki also. Which I have not seen at any-other place. 🤩Highly recommend!  3⭐️Beef noodle soup, Classic LKR 2210/-  Clean soap, but as my daughter said, it’s like “mungatta” soup because the broth had more bean sprouts Flavor than the beef. So clean broth with shredded beef, a good amount of vermicelli noodles with lots of beans sprouts and they had that weird sweet mint leaf which really put me off.  honesty, but I don’t think I’ll order this again.   

Chola - 10% SC

Prawn biryani 2250/- 🔥🥵 Waiter : do you wanted chattinad or dindugal?  Me: which is the spiciest ?  Waiter : dindugal (and oh boy was it SPICY)  So I can handle a lot of heat but this Spice was unique that it’s stays on your tongue for quite a bit of time.  I won’t order this again 🫣 FUN FACT  Dindigul and Chettinad biryanis are both known for their spiciness, but they achieve it through different approaches.  Dindigul biryani uses a combination of green chilies and black pepper, often including a variety called Nambiyur gundu chillies or boriya chillies , to deliver a robust heat. Chettinad biryani, while also using green chilies, relies more heavily on a complex blend of ground spices, including dried red chilies, and a wider array of aromatics to create a layered spiciness.   Gulab Jamon 580/- for 3 pcs    Usually, the cardamom is only added into the sugar syrup, so it gives a subtle flavor, but in this jamon, it was in the flour. ...

Cinnamon life Indiya

I like Dining at Cinnamon life now and interior design for this hotel was pretty simple, but the entrance was quite grand and it has a private space like with two dining tables in the corner, like a attic with a breathtaking view 🤩Champaran Meat (D) 4800/- (MUST TRY)  mustard spiced mutton curry, chilli, garlic Mutton was so soft and well cooked with all the amount of correct spice. I’m not. Big fan of non veg! But I got convinced to have this!  MASKA PANEER MASALA  3800/-  Tomatoe Based but I found the taste like soybean than paneer. Still the gravy was a perfect balance.  🤩DALMAKHAN      2800/-  was the star of the show for a vegetarian dish! So smooth and like a rich soup!  🤩Churma Ladoo, Rabdi LKR 1700/- MUST TRY whole wheat flour dumplings, edible gum, raisin, condensed milk  First look, you felt like it was such a plain laddu, but actually when I bit into it, it had good amount of cashew almonds...

Dragon fli - love bar

Well there use to be a Japanese restaurant below love bar which is not re branded with a new menu as dragon fli  Nice atmosphere but the waiting time for a food on a Wednesday slow night was a tad bit long for pasta! More than 20 min I would say  🤩 Cheesy pasta 3500/- (MUST TRY)  which was not on the menu, we requested vegetarian as we got this dish! So satisfying and the perfect amount of creaminess See breeze pasta 3500/- (MUST TRY)  This was tomato based, but I’ve hardly felt the tomato taste was more of tomato, cream base and again perfect blend of tomato cream and a bit of spices  

La crème

 These are desert ice cream  Via pick me order  Bubble gum ice cream cake 900/-  Surely smelled of heavy bubblegum. Digging into it was quite hard and thick, and it was quite sticky like it was full of fructose or corn syrup sticky. I was very doubtful that it will melt in my mouth, but to my surprise it did.  Will I order this again? No if it wasn’t for alarming texture of the ice cream I’ll give it a 2/5⭐️ Lemon ice cream cake 900/-  This cake on the other hand was more of a real ice cream texture, with hint of lemon taste which I’ll order again when my diet is over! 😂

Kingsbury YUE CHUAN + + +

Preserved Duck Egg with Szechuan Chili Oil (N) 1900/- (better to be shared to get the experience  Well it’s better than a century egg! But I could not eat more 3 slices of the egg.  >The center was way too creamy in a very unfamiliar way.  > the egg white is firm, like jelly but had a taste later that kind of didn’t sit right > but as the flavor sets in it has this weird aftertaste, like your whole touch is tingling and has a slight butte taste and you can’t taste any other food. Later.  I would say just have 2 slices of your feeling adventurous but that’s where I would stop.  Wonton Chicken Soup (S) 1300/-  This was good, so I love the prawn wontons which was thinly made. It wasn’t to Kiki and the broth was perfectly flavored even had Goji berries berries Yum.  Sweet-and-sour chicken 1600/-  The glossy orange look of then stew seems appealing for few.  The tartness of the pineapple made dish a good choice  Crab fried rice 1900...

Layards warf - Mediterranean

 Vat - 900/-  I'M A BALLER - 3000 Meatballs, polenta, sugo, parmesan & salsa verde Not at all spicy   I feel relatively healthier than any other pastas that’s over in the menu. It sago or we call it as rava.  Topped with fresh basil leaves covered with tomato salsa, four homemade meatballs, which was pretty good. At first it looked like a mash of potato but then the flavor sets and it’s pretty good.  Will I try to try this again? Maybe if I don’t have any other better option As I said it’s healthier  SPICY CATCH . 2950 Tad bit of spice  Prawns, chilli flakes, tomato cream sauce, cherry tomatoes, rigatoni & parmesan Super rich and at one point, you can see the oil very creamy, I would go for it, but if you consider the health perspective of it, I wouldn’t buy this again The choice is yours
