Our Favourite Places To Eat In Sri Lanka 🇱🇰

In Sri Lanka we always find ourselves eating in the same type of places so today we headed to one of them to show you how it is.
All over the country there are government run eateries that allow women to setup work making home cooked affordable food for the working class people.
The food in these spots is always so good, the ladies are absolutely lovely and the prices are just unbeatable.
Sri Lankan food is classic 🇱🇰

That's actually not black tea. It's called Beli Mal is a flower where they boil and separate the water. That water is so good and healthy. Like super healthy ❤

[@sudu-manika]

❤❤❤ correct ❤❤❤

[@tstriker86]

Thats the real herbal tea…. Usually it makes you feel cool and relaxes your muscles and may more benefits…

[@rajeekulasekara3173]

Yep👍

Belimal (Aegle marmelos) is a traditional herbal tea. a hot beverage used over generations to soothe bowel disorders and rejuvenate the body from within.

Your channel is much more real than all the news media and documentaries put together

Glad you are visiting Srilanka. Thank you. ❤

[@sujeevadealwis5513]

Beli mal is the tea brewed by boiling the flower of the beal (beli) fruit. It’s usually had with a piece of jaggery. Assmi is a sweet meat made during the new year. So are the other types of kevum you had.

[@JaneDoe-jl5it]

Great concept to have a kitchen/restaurant with home-cooked meals, always the best & ladies are great...13.14 is similar to Kerala's uniappam, soft cake made of red rice flour, jaggery, coconut (very delish). Fish sellers bring their fresh catch to sell to houses as well, very convenient! Enjoy!

[@juliasmith1613]

Wow. both of your meals look really delicious making me want some 😊 I love dal is my favourite 😊 glad both of you enjoying 👍😊

12.58 is called Oil Cake or Kawum in Local. I suggest you try a treat called Lavaria. It looks like the same as Aasmi but more moist and the filling is made of grated coconut fried with honey. Ideal for breakfast and the tea in the evening

[@EllisWR]

Maybe, along with 'nice and spicy'

[@achiraprabath4191]

Your both very welcome to sri lanka ❤😘😘

[@EllisWR]

[@RanjivKapuge]

Looks like a super place and good food! Glad you enjoyed. I wish the staff could make an effort to improve their English language skills which will benefit them to explain a bit more about the food to tourist customers.

[@EllisWR]

As tourists we should learn a bit before we come! Nobody should have to speak English in Sri Lanka!

[@UpasiliSenadheera-ny8zz]

I wish your journey in Sri Lanka 😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

You want be able to eat ' Assmi' anywhere in the world. because the mixture get mixed with kind of cinnamon oil extrct from endemic oil called "Daul kundu"..you may taste various sweets from various places...of course recipes of sweets are readitional and community wise different...Asami is a Simhaleas sweet....there are hell of a lot. You may taste Tamils recipeies sweet in Jaffn. ...watalappan is basically mulsim sweet..

[@kumarialwis8127]

Love Sri Lankan food ❤❤❤

[@EllisWR]

It's delicious

[@ExploringNew1]

People always try to give you spoons because they think every foreigner eats luxury foods with a spoon, fork and whatnot. That's probably because that's what media shows us

[@EllisWR]

To be fair most tourists only eat in nice restaurants or western food so I see why they have this silly impression of us! They never eat anything proper boring

[@user-hc8ik4yt2x]

You guys are really know how to eat rice and curry ,👍👍👍
