Surprising FOODS Sri Lankan Market

Check out these unusual foods we found at Kandy’s Central Market in Sri Lanka! After taking in the hustle and bustle of the market and learning about some foods we didn’t know existed, we climb to a peaceful viewpoint for a serene view over Kandy (and to walk of the chili date ice-cream!)
We hope that you enjoyed this video!

Very nice video. BTW that's not Banana Root, it's called 'Kohila Root" (Lasia spinosa root).

[@dravisandanna]

Thanks Sameera!🙏 Good to know, we weren't sure.😊

Thank you for coming to visit our country

[@samsfor9428]

😃❤😄 nice one, keep it up!

[@dravisandanna]

Thanks for your support😁

[@nalin8182]

Excellent vlogging, Calmness and colours are tally with real Sri Lanka. In Sri Lanka You will find millions of varieties of vegetables and green leaves. Everything is edible. Food preparation methods are so different from one vegetable to another. Because Sri Lanka is a tropical country, locals can survive with what grows on their gardens. If worst comes worse . Hope you had a great time and unforgettable holiday in this paradise island. Happy and safe journey Much love ❤️

[@dravisandanna]

Thanks Nalin! We loved the variety of fresh produce😍. We wish we had some of these vegetables in the Netherlands!

you should try wood-apple juice or ice cream that is the best thing in Sri Lanka for me.....

[@dravisandanna]

@crazydogworld3939 Wood apple has such an interesting flavour. We tried some juice which was good! The ice cream must be EVEN better.😁
