Below are my two pence about a place which deserves some accolade.<br/ <br/ AMBIENCE: 3/5<br/ It 's actually two businesses at one place a grocery store adjacent to the dining area, nothing wrong with it. The seating is decent and the place is well lit. I arrived in the late afternoon, thus had my meal experience about an hour before twilight. Overall, a rather 'generous ' rating, given the other parameters more than making up for it.<br/ <br/ FOOD: 4.5/5<br/ If it 's a buffet, then food takes the centre stage by default. There was plenty to choose from. Each item had its own Lankan flavour. Loved the coconut pancakes and the minced coconut fry/mix. There were at least 5 different kinds of rice servings, and boy.. delicious they were all! There was egg curry, chicken fry, lentils, a sautéed cashew nut dish, and much more. Even the fried red chilli had a distinct taste. As an Indian by birth, and always fond of South Indian cuisines (I am not from South India though , I must say it was a fulfilling Sri Lanka being a close neighbour down south; a worthwhile experience. They did such a good job that I can barely suggest anything further. If at all, the food could have been warmer.. especially for late arrivals. Some salads and some additional variety in desserts could do wonders. Nevertheless, for the price, the quantity, variety, flavours on offer was just fantastic! LOVED IT!<br/ <br/ SERVICE: 5/5<br/ I normally don 't get carried away while rating things (or places , but people at 'Chef Lanka ' deserve a pat on their back for doing a splendid job. No matter, how conservative I get, I can 't rate the service anything lesser than 5. My brother in law had joined me later and since we didn 't have beef, he enquired if mutton curry was available.. to our pleasant surprise, the floor in charge arranged for the same in a matter of 30 mins! Now, who would rate the taste, the gesture in itself was enough to strike a chord or two anyways. Later, he would arrange for ice creams, going out of his way, as it was clearly not a part of the buffet, very much like the mutton curry. All this while he wore a warm smile, even courteously allowed me to go for fresh plates, while I tried to capture a few food shots. My bad, I forgot to ask his name, for such acts of generosity and warm service are what stay with you for long.. long after you forget the flavours and even leave the city. DEEPLY MOVED.<br/ <br/ OVERALL: 4/5<br/ Since I value service at par with food, in fact, more at times, I must confess CHEF LANKA has well and truly carved a niche for itself in my heart. Stomach and palate didn 't have much to complain anyway. : Keep it up TEAM CL! More power and flavours to you.<br/ <br/ Cheers<br/ Partha

Beef curry is consistent quality. Dinner service is always with a smile. ...and for those who may be wondering, yes, Sri Lankan curry is different to Indian (hard to explain I would suggest that Sri Lankan is a lighter cuisine though I enjoy both types). Try it, you'll see!
