Sri Lankan cuisine is not so common in Hong Kong, and after hearing some good reviews, today we came to this restaurant to experience the Sri Lankan delicacies, with crab as its anchor, helmed by the native Chef Gizzy.Located on Elgin Street in Soho, the restaurant has a vibrant and colourful décor, with pinkish floor tiles, plenty of mirrors, and even the shirts of the servers were all flowery. The open kitchen is towards the back of the restaurant, with Chef Gizzy and her team busy in preparation.We ordered Chili Potato Fry ($58) for starter. The potatoes were cut into small pieces, and then deep-fried, before tossing with a chili dressing which had got a nice spiciness with also acidity to make the whole snack less greasy. Good.Next, we had Crab Kothu ($108 for half portion). A typical Sri Lankan stir-fried dish with crab meat, shredded roti, vegetables and egg, it reminded me of something I had tried in Malaysia. The salty chili paste could be added for those who love spicy, but on its own the dish was already tasty. Very good.Finally, it was the signature, Jaffna Crab Kari ($888). Based on a traditional recipe from the North of Sri Lanka, the curry is mild in spiciness, using bird’s eye chillies, tamarind, curry powder and coconut milk. The crab was meaty and fresh, with the claw so hard it took a lot of effort to crack open.The restaurant was thoughtful and provide us with a pink apron to avoid getting our clothes dirty while eating the crab. As the curry sauce was so delicious we had the Paratha ($58) to savour the remaining sauce. Very good.Service was good, with the staff helpful in explaining the dishes and making recommendations. Together with some beverages the bill on the night was $1,533 which was reasonable in my opinion. I look forward to coming back and try the other signature crab galore in near future. continue reading

Step into the vibrant world of Hotal Colombo, a haven that brings the spirit of Colombo's bustling streets right to your table. The bright and cheery decor mirrors the casual eateries scattered throughout the capital city of Sri Lanka, promising a dining experience that's not just about the food but a cultural immersion.Our culinary adventure began with the tantalizing Chili Potato Fry. Crispy potatoes danced in a house-made sauce, harmonizing with the kick of chillies. It was the perfect overture to what lay ahead.The Chilli Chicken Fry followed suit, a spicy ensemble of chicken, house-made sauce, chillies, onions, ginger, and bell peppers. Each bite was a journey through a palette of flavors, showcasing the artistry behind Sri Lankan cuisineAnd then, a star emerged – the Crab Kothu. A typical Sri Lankan dish, it brought together crab, stir-fried vegetables, kari, scrambled eggs, and chopped roti. It was a savory and appetizing symphony that left an indelible mark on our taste buds To cleanse the palate, we indulged in the iconic Masala Dosa with Sambhar. The crepe-like pancake, folded and stuffed with spicy potato filling, was a culinary embrace that transported us to the heart of South IndiaThe journey continued with the Market Fish Kari & Paratha. Surprisingly light and not overly spicy, the kari danced in harmony with the buttery, flaky, and soft paratha, creating a melody of flavors that delighted our sensesThere comes the Chilli Tamarino Crab Galore - the signature of Hotal Colombo. Fresh tamarind and Malaga chillies lent a tangy and spicy character to the dish. While hailed as the signature, the sauce, although tasty, slightly overshadowed the natural freshness of the crab. A minor quibble in an otherwise symphony of flavors 🦀We finished our meal with the Egg Hopper, which added a unique touch to the feast. These bowl-shaped pancakes made from fermented rice and coconut milk were the perfect canvas for the array of flavors that Hotal Colombo expertly curatedAs I reflect on the culinary journey at Hotal Colombo, it's more than a dining experience; it's a cultural immersion. The vibrant decor, the eclectic menu, and the soulful flavors take you on a journey to the heart of Sri Lanka. The dishes are crafted with care, inviting you to explore the rich tapestry of Sri Lankan cuisine continue reading

假日跟朋友跑趟斯里蘭卡雜貨店~餐廳以粉紅色為主正門擺放了很多懷舊小食/飲料/雜貨給客人購買而店內的佈局間隔都很簡潔,夠寬敞如果要拍照打卡的話就是正門&雜貨位👀食物方面點了肉蟹炒餅&咖哩雞加配薄餅(+$48)Crab kothu,chicken kari+paratha(+$48)菜單是英文mix斯里蘭卡文,所以我都看圖點餐🫣食物都很好吃~但價錢不太便宜👀我就點了這2個食物,份量不多就已經$400了 continue reading
