Time Out says Rate it
The traffic may roar outside, but serenity reigns within this popular and well-established little Sinhalese restaurant. Tranquillity is fostered as much by the kindly service (which can be slow) as by the dark-red and white colour scheme, and oil paintings of Sri Lankan people and landscapes. The menu has been streamlined and most common-or-garden curry-house dishes removed. This leaves a selection of Sri Lankan set meals (kothu roti stir-fries, string hopper assemblies, birianis and lamprais) plus 'devilled' dishes, vegetables, and sambol relishes. Starters are a routine choice of rissoles and patties that seem little better than pre-packaged varieties. Better head straight for main courses. Our chicken lamprais consisted of a mound of rice served on a banana leaf and accompanied by on-the-bone chicken curry (creamy with coconut milk, mildly spiced with own-made curry powder), and side dishes of aubergine curry (lovely sweet-sour and caramelised flavours) and chilli-hot seeni (onion) sambol. Less pleasing were devilled prawns that had little spicing (more resembling a sizzling stir-fry of onions, peppers and tomatoes) and a bony little portion of seer fish curry. Traditional wattalapam is among the desserts.
