Sri Lankan Feast in Mumbai | Hoppumm Restaurant Bandra | Foodie & The Feast

[@naveenkumarasinghe7769]

I'm from Galle , Sri lanka. Hoppam guys did really nice job. They mix indian taste with sri lankan meals. Keep going guys add our very own foods like fish ambul thiyal , lamprice, coconut rotti ❤️

[@beautifulstranger6974]

I'm a Sri Lankan Sinhalese. I can't give more than 20% of the credit to this shop by looking at this menu. We don't use Paneer as a Sri Lankan cooking ingredient. You guys have mixed Indian flavours to Sri Lankan dishes. Sri Lankans eat prawn curry, but I don't know about prawn moilee. I haven't seen any Ceylon chicken kottu roti in black. We don't put coriander leaves on kottu or any other dishes like Indians. Also, we eat a lot of vegetables and What is that rice plate guys???? It is not a Sri Lankan rice plate, we eat lots of curries with rice. Please Indians, don't mix Sri Lankan cuisines with Indian flavours. Sri Lankan foods are spicier than Indian foods and have a different flavour. Oh... I can't handle this 😂😂 Please visit Sri Lanka to taste Sri Lankan cuisines.

Totally agree 👍

[@rimivaidya7446]

Please tell exact address of this srilankan hotel in bandra so that we can visit it arjun.

Actually we Sri Lanka call Hoppers as Appa String hoppers and Indi Appa And that's Pol sambal - coconut sambol Glad Sri Lankan Cuisine is getting famous even in India.. And Kottu is one of the famous Street Food in Sri Lanka. Good luck! Felt like coming all the way from Sri Lanka to Bandra! Cheers

Quite a lot of similarities between Sri Lankan and Kerala cuisine. Probably the Portuguese influence. Hoppers, string hoppers, moilee, and we call sambal, chammathi.. Eggplant moju is my absolute favourite and my first intro to Sri Lankan cuisine. Would love to visit Sri Lanka some day soon. Much love.

[@marlinthaya6438]

@@TheRhythm42002 Actually you are right. There are a lot of similarities between Kerala and Sri Lankan food. We use a lot of coconut milk and other coconut based products in our food. The landscape too is similar - I believe. I would love to visit Kerala. Being a Sri Lankan Tamil, when we first went to Chennai they were asking if we were speaking Malayalam. The dialect and the tone sounds similar.

[@rajthilak4770]

@@marlinthaya6438 even kerela people are also Tamil speakers once and after 15th centuries when Sanskrit speakers migrated to kerala there is a influence of Sanskrit words usage majority and Tamil words less, so it was a way for a new language called Malayalam and drifted away from Tamil ( Tamil had 3 kingdoms cheras,cholas,pandyas. And the chera kingdom is only now call it as Kerala state now)

[@susammathomas4413]

Available in kerala

[@vinodaiyer7384]

Include dishes like lumprice, srilankan biryani, devils chicken so on and so forth

[@mrp5764]

Most of the food shown here is from Kerala..appam idiyappam, stew moilee is totally Keralan Malabar food made for Europeans by the nuns in Kerala.

[@lherath8658]

This is not real Sri Lankan food :( I can give credit to hoppers, string hoppers and maybe a little bit to coconut sambal and Kottu (they have the base) but side dishes they served with these and other dishes are things I've never seen or heard as a Sri Lankan

[@mariamunaff8880]

Agreed 👍

[@jequvelina]

Wow, so sweet and nice Thank you

[@jovialakashpattanaik5558]

SO LOVELY & VERY NICE ..

[@shalinimaldikar635]

Hi tell us which is best nd tasteless

[@mrco2andoxygen490]

this place looks great

[@yojanavijay8087]

Thank you different food :)👍

[@rimpabiswas3420]

The show is superb. Liked all the episodes. BUT I think there should be someone else presenting the show. A food show host must have an interest in food, information regarding food, the excitement of trying out new food, the energy of explanation, big foodie and obviously who can give perfect expressions ; -) Right now it seems like, the host is sleepy, just want to finish the content of the episode and none of them mentioned above. Yummylicious show

[@krutikapawar9524]

Nice

[@ninu7092]

Appam and stew ... Yum

[@akshatshetty7103]

Damn. Gotta check the place out!

[@timesfoodie]

definitely do

[@nrc5290]

Oohh la la.. very close to Tamil and Malayalam cuisine.. should be very close already .. we have every every food that you ate in the video..

[@timesfoodie]

That's the beauty of food! We are glad to read about the similarity! Thank you! 😊

[@nrc5290]

@@timesfoodie yes darl, food helps to trace our cultural similarities too and not any differences.. 🙏😉😉

[@sonia220388]

Try Hyderabadi food 🥘

[@timesfoodie]

Can you suggest a good place where we can try typically Hyderabadi cuisine?

[@ettayi987]

So basically hop is rice in singalam!!

[@mariamunaff8880]

NO!!!

[@muhsinajunaid6425]

Please change the host , he always a sleepy mode and don't enjoy the food . My kind request

[@yellowmellow7640]

😂 🤣..This aint srilankan 😂 🤣.. Our food is simple and flavoursome.only us srilankans know how to balance the flavours to get tht special touch and taste. Adding unwanted ingredients and innovating the srilankan dishes is an absolute crime. No offence but, we srilankans take pride in our cooking and dishes. Please dont innovate things and claim it as srilankan food 😂😭. The hopper, is prepared plain or an egg is added in the middle,The stringhopper yeah comes with the lunu miris seeni sambol and pol sambol but tht prawn curry is definitely not srilankan.The kottu is totally different.

[@mariamunaff8880]

Agreed 👍

[@brishtiroychaudhuri5675]

U donno much about food. I m sorry. ( the host)

[@shresthadey]

I feel the same. He doesn't have much knowledge about food. He doesn't fit the role of a food show host at all.

[@shresthadey]

Somebody called grant Dave without a dp replied to my comment ( which seems to be now deleted) telling me to stop criticizing. Why would I ? Who tf are you even ? It's my right to speak my mind as an audience if the content is poor. I have spent my time and time is money
