Sri Lanka's Best Seafood! 🇱🇰

Sri Lanka, Colombo. I tried Sri Lanka's Best Seafood with my good friend ‪@harryjaggardtravel‬
I went to the famous Ministry of Crab Colombo, a restaurant that is ranked number 29 on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants List 2021 after a lot of you have been recommending it in the comments
I was in for a treat!
We started the night off trying out oysters with their special homemade hot sauce and aged soy sauce. It was amazing! As soon as I tasted this started, I knew that the rest of the food was going to be delicious!
Next, I tried out the crab liver pate and a huge river prawn! The prawn head button was soooooooo gooooooood!
For the main course, we tried the Colossal Crab. Believe me, they were not joking when they called it a Colossal Crab! It was huge! Not only that, but it was easily the best tasting crab I've ever had
If you are in the area, I highly recommend you give Ministry Of Crab a visit:

@@GoWithAli You’re a very handsome man, Ali. You look even more hotter 🔥 in this video. The food at Ministry of Crab 🦀 is exquisite and divine! Yes, it’s an expensive, high-end restaurant but you get what you pay for. The service and the quality of food are exceptional! So glad you and Harry went there. Watching this video made me hungry and crave for crabs 🦀 Btw, those prawns 🦐 are bigger than jumbo prawns 🦐 and it looked delicious 🤤 Mouth-watering! I love your videos. Looking forward to watching more! Much love ♥️ 🇱🇰 😘

[@samsonjason9530]

Hi Ali Mache Vanakam you and your you Tube friends are taking nice videos. Just wondering why you guys not travelling to North and East of Ceylon because you have to explore the Ceylon Northern Places The Eastern places. Did anyone given wrong feed back about The Northern Places and about the Eastern places. The Northern and Eastern people are more kind and hospitality than South people. Only you can findout by travelling to Tamil speaking people's places. Northern Capital is Jaffna Eastern Capital is Trincomalee. West Capital is Mannar. You All can travel as a group with your You Tube friends to North and East by train so please visit by express train and explore those people who fight for their independence from Sri Lanka. Tamileelam people are very nice people and they are still facing the structural genocide by the Sri Lankan government and by their genocidal forces so please show those people's hard life to the world. Hope you all together visit those places because North and East people wanted to hold a referendum as Scotland and as Canada's French part referendum. Hope you may all visit North & East. Hope you can go with Mac Harry & Your Other friends visit together to Northern & Eastern Tamil People's Tamileelam Cities

This romantic dinner changed my mind, you and Harry are the best fit, both you are gentle and kind gentlemen, I hope you can travel together forever! 那家餐廳太棒了，沒想到蝦子那麼大隻，媽媽咪，那隻螃蟹也好大，令人垂涎三尺，甜點也吸引人！ 這個浪漫晚餐讓我改變想法，你跟哈利才最適合，你們都是溫和善良的紳士，希望你們能一起旅遊！👍😃👏

[@GoWithAli]

Thank you so much my friend

[@gayan85]

You are a very humble and cool guy .. I love watching your videos. Greeting from Sri Lanka

[@KD-zj4ye]

You looked like you really enjoyed that! The food, the restaurant, the presentation, and even the people who were serving and cooking looked good haha. It's a task cleaning up a crab properly (getting even the tiniest bit of meat in the smallest claws), but it's so worth it! Maybe it's because I'm Sri Lankan but I really really love seafood haha

[@kidsmagicalworld7105]

I don't know how you do it, but your video's keep getting better. I hope you get the experience of trying a home cooked meal too, it is different from shop bought food and so good. If you get a chance please try kidu rice, it's very unique as it is served in a woven coconut leaf basket and tastes amazing. And make sure it has the mango curry, you will love it. Galle caterers used to have a really good one, but I am out of Sri Lanka for a while so not sure if it is still around.

[@GoWithAli]

Thank you son much my friend
