How Does Chicken Rice Taste In Sri Lanka? 🇱🇰

Today my son and I wanted to check out the Buryani which is kind of like the Sri Lankan version of a Biryani. That is just something we do in every country. But we looked and looked and Galle does not seem to be the place for that - we will try it somewhere else. But since we were hungry and wanted to eat some Sri Lankan food we decided to go to a local eatery and try their Chicken Rice which turn out to be a Chicken Fried Rice which is something that you see all around Sri Lanka and is well worth to make a video about I think. So we did go in and ordered to half portions (we do not do the full portion anymore...) and we filmed the whole thing. Please do come along and check out what we thought about this Sri Lankan food that exists in so many countries, but in any country it is somewhat different.

Hold the little baby by the hand and go. In our country, there are too many road accidents. So be careful and pay attention, I thought it would be a hindrance to the happiness of your family. So be careful. Stay close to the baby. Where there are many good people, there can also be bad people. Be happy and enjoy the beauty of our country.

Great to have "father son time" once in a while. Instead of briyani rice, you both ended up with chicken fried rice. Oh gosh, the portion was big even though you ordered only half. Yeah, it's normal that Vincent couldn't finish his share as it was really too much for a boy of this age. Haha...he's still very camera shy. Anyway, good review. Thanks for posting this interesting video, Sir.

The Rice you have eaten here was Chicken Fried Rice (Mixed). There is another type which is Chicken Fried Rice (Set Menu). Some of restaurants have both of them and some of them don’t have both. Set menu normally contains fried rice, a separate portion of chicken, vegetables chopsey, chille paste and egg plants. Next time you can try a Fried Rice Set Menu 😊. And also i would like to tell that now you eat exactly like a Sri Lankan 😋🤗. Good luck to your journey in Sri Lanka🎉

Faluda ice-cream or drink is actually rose syrup with condensed milk. You can make it yourself & drink it cold by putting it in the fridge. In Indonesia, Malaysia & Singapore, it is called Bandung. In India & Sri Lanka, it is Faluda.

[@yvesthesleeve]

Ah okay, it is very good

[@AL-ip3vk]

@@yvesthesleeve the rose syrup comes in 2 form: sweetened & unsweetened. I rather buy unsweeten syrup because the condensed milk is already sweet. It is simple to make.

You should Try Sri lankan street food at Kimbulawala....It's so good,food are amazing

[@AL-ip3vk]

Correct method of eating rice with your hand: 1) press a portion of the rice using the tip of your 5 fingers. 2) scoop up the pressed portion of the rice & using your thumb, push the rice into your mouth. This way, you will not make a mess around your mouth area & also preventing some of the rice from falling on your plate or floor.

[@yvesthesleeve]

I try

Taking about the inflation thing, before the inflation the chicken rice you got at 500 LKR was 200 LKR - 300 LKR. For locals it kind of 100% increase.
