Dinner at our hotel, Cinnamon Citadel at Kandy #cinnamoncitadelkandy#kandy #srilankrew #srilankanstyle Beautiful set up by the pool. We were a big group so we mostly had set meals planned in advance.
The only problem I noticed with having dinner venues by the water in Sri Lanka is – there are no lights by the water feature – so you cannot see the water. Even at our dinner in Heritance Kandalama, it’s a pity because it would have been so beautiful to see the water. I guess it is because there are no other developments across or surrounding the area and maybe just no financial resources to do it. I hope they can improve this so it will even make it more spectacular 🙂
Sri Lankan food is very unique. Even if they have curries, it is not the Indian kind of curry that we are familiar with. It has a different taste which maybe would be an acquired tasted because majority of the group did not acquire the taste even after several meals and even after the trip. I just learned later on to mix the different sauces and toppings and my saving grace was pappadum and chutney which gave taste for me. So maybe if you plan your meals in Sri Lanka – do not hesitate to try other cuisines because I heard Chinese, Japanese and other cuisines were good 🙂
