from rambuttan to tipitip

the worst part about missing home is missing your favourite food. the everyday breakfast or dinner, the hanging-out-with-your-friends special, the seasonal fruit and your favourite movie time munchies. so i wanted to capture in one post all my favourite food stuff from Colombo, ignoring my watering mouth and my grumbling belly. so here is my personal all time favourite list  - 

(by the way, if anyone reads this in Colombo, please take this as a sign to visit the nearest Perera and Sons to wolf down a maalu bunnis). 

Paan parippu (made at home by Karu)













Aapam and Katta sambol, Cafe on the 5th













Rambuttan 



 Tipitip













Maalu bun, Perera and Sons













Chocolate cake from Royal bakery 













Thembili (i know you get this in India as well, but not as sweet and yummy)


















Pittu and fish curry













Blueberry cheesecake, Bars 













Lavariya, my morning breakfast bought by my dad













Prawn Vada, at Galle Face


















Kotthu, from Pilawoos 













Guava juice, at Roots 


















and last and not in the least bit least, Mint Choc Chip icecream (with wafers and prunes), at Carnival
