  you have to walk through the tunnel to get to the entrance.

  Moolgy’s friend had been in the mood for Sri Lankan food for a while, and when she found a place, she wanted us all to experience the wonders of Sri Lankan food. Which i’ve never had.

  Nahrung (food):

  more pink drinks…this papaya lassi was really good though…with some almond shavings.

  My first hopper. it was kind of bland…but it comes with sweet read onion concoction that when added makes it alot better. Maybe i’m not use to it, but it didn’t really wow me…I think i’d rather stick with roti kanai….lol. But i must admit, i wish i had tried the “papadons”…

  Our food took a very long time to come. but when it finally arrived, we were shtarving.

  
  

  I got the lamb curry. It came with an assortment of neat little dishes.

  
  

  The lamb smelt great and looked great.

  nice zuchhini.

  potato moosh. very good.

  string beans were aite.

  some kind of root..was aite.

  shrooms!

  BOP! er rice i mean.

  

  
  

  The lamb was ridiculously good, juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. NO gameyness at all….which was awesome.

  
  
  

  Summation: If i was in need of a curry fix, this place would definitely hit the spot. But i would definitely not go out of my way to come here. The food was good…service kind of sucked…waiter was a total douche. atmosphere is nice, there is outdoor seating in the back near the water. if i had a ratings scale of out of 5 it would be given a 3.
