Sri Lankan cuisine is different from Indian food, although in Great Britain we often mix them up. When you visit here, be sure to ask for classic Sri Lankan dishes and the experienced staff will be happy to serve them. Instead of ordering generic Indian dishes like madras or korma, try out string hoppers, egg hoppers, and authentic Sri Lankan curries cooked with coconut. The food may take a little longer to prepare since everything is made fresh to order, but the delicious flavors are well worth the wait. The chef was enthusiastic about cooking for us, and I would highly recommend this restaurant with a 5-star rating. It was a pleasant surprise to find such great cooking on Northdown Road in Cliftonville!

The aroma of the food was mouthwatering. The service was personalized and we could tell that the whole family worked hard. We felt very comfortable and were able to stay as long as we wanted. A hidden gem in Cliftonville, Margate!
