What nice people - and tuk-tuk bread!😍Beautiful beach! And a cooking class from a world class chef. WOW!

[@ayngelina]

I mean I love ice cream and I love an ice cream truck but seriously a bread truck is everything, why don’t they have these everywhere?

[@calvinc6121]

Thank u for bringing us to the east coast! The king coconut is the best, they're sold everywhere and is an excellent thirst quencher.

[@ayngelina]

It’s so small but has so much juice!

Thank you for coming and enjoying my beautiful country.

It was amazing!

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Wow, pretty cool beach town. People seem very friendly and food looks delicious.

[@ayngelina]

The servers at Arafa Hotel were so nice we ate there maybe 5 times because the food was great but also the people were also so welcoming

[@ckvibez3580]

Wow, what an incredible trip! We just finished our adventure in Trinco, and every beach was stunning, but Dutch Bay Beach stole the show! The beauty of this place is beyond words. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting. Absolutely amazing! 🌊🌴

I heard that it was the best after we left! It was just a bit too far to reach in one day.

@@ayngelina did you go to hot wells? In kannya? Best to hinin the early morning like 6 or 7 am... It's cooler...

[@ayngelina]

So the guy at the gas station told us this but it was so hot when we were there the idea of going to hot springs didn't seem like a good idea.

[@MrJamesaf]

@@ayngelina that's why I said go in the early morning... These are very sacred and have 9 wells of different temperatures... The last one is so hot! Trust me they will transform your body and you will feel so good after it's so therapeutic! Especially that it has very special energetical properties. ...

Sri Lanka looks tempting

[@ayngelina]

And I didn’t even go to the popular areas. The Southwest is where most people holiday but it was monsoon season there. I think tourism will blow up here soon so come while it’s still in crowded.

[@Pablo-l6z3j]

@ayngelina I prefer less tourists so great to see those areas. 🙂

Me too. I thought Uppuveli had enough for good energy but not enough that it was noisy or crowded.

That sweet syrup that you have is not Sugar Syrup, it's called 'Treacle' which is mostly made from the Jaggery Palm tree. But it is also made from Coconut trees.

[@ayngelina]

Did you see that I explained it was kithul syrup and showed the photo of the palm?

[@juliadenk1580]

what is the best travel time? Is it possible to have great weather in January? We are no surfers, so the waves are not important for us.

[@ayngelina]

We were there in September. North East Monsoon Season know as the Mala is October to Late January. They say the best time to visit the northeast is April to September. Southwest monsoon season is known as the Yala is from May to September. They say the best time to visit this region is December to March. The southwest is more popular for vacationers and we looked into it on the ground to see if maybe the monsoon season ended early but I think it ran solid through the end of September which is why we saw the northeast which is lesser known.

[@mravina1614]

You have to DROWN the string hoppers in the gravy!! That's the best way to eat. Mix it up with your fingers like you were eating rice and add in bits of the curries but especially if you get 'kiri hodi' which is a coconut milk based light gravy, you HAVE to drown the string hoppers in it for the best flavour! I do the same with pittu as well. NEVER eaten it bare like that tbh... Always mix it up like your would rice. Only difference is that with string hoppers or pittu, I always need a LOT of gravy. Enjoy your stay here!!

Haha you're the sauce boss!

Greetings from Toronto! Kithul is much lower on the glycemic index than maple syrup ie healthier. I heard there is an awesome sushi restaurant in Fernando’s Market. One of the reviews on Trip Advisor said it rivals sushi restaurants in Japan. That’s saying something. Did you guys try it?

[@ayngelina]

We didn’t try it but I wish I had now. I didn’t know that about kithul syrup, I hope they can find a way to preserve the tradition but I think it’s so much work for not a lot of profit so the younger generation isn’t as interested.

[@Gordi_B]

@@ayngelina Kithul palm blooms once in 10 or 15 years only, I think. One requires a lot of patience to maintain the tradition.

[@ayngelina]

They should charge extra for it

This is a typical Sinhalese food. Except for the Nana. The chef probably made it cause he assumed you will be familiar more with Indian food

They also have them in some south East Asian countries so I’m wondering if they originated in India or China?

[@heythere1968]

love your channel but.. alan never seems happy.. always seems inconvinienced to be traveling. does he even like it? love your energy though but alan is a bit of a drag sadly..

[@ayngelina]

He does love it and he had no idea his resting face was so negative until people started making comments. He's a very laid back person and actually makes a lot of jokes, including many bad dad jokes but he can have a furrowed brow at times, which I think actually may signal a need for glasses but that's a different story. But he doesn't have the artificial smile people are so accustomed to on KZbin. I'm conflicted about it because the videos should be authentic and portray our life as it is rather than to be a performance.

Sling your hook spoiling places with your advertising…do one

[@ayngelina]

Sorry?

[@369dabbler]

@@ayngelinato be fair I have been a bit harsh But all the KZbinrs are killing sanctuary from an ever transient growing population that by its very nature polluted and corrupts neighbourhoods Nothing personal

[@ayngelina]

I appreciate the response, I do see some serious issues with the rise of digital nomads and expats who aren't interested in the local community. However, I don't think you can say all, because there are also those of us who want to inspire people to learn more to local culture and contribute to the local economy. A lot of people don't visit the north and I think it's a mistake, it was the first area I visited and I think has such an important story to share.
