Holiday memory — String Hoppers that transported me back

I first ate String Hoppers on a trip five years ago and have been searching for a version this good ever since. This restaurant finally delivered the fiery and aromatic quality I remembered. Ceylon cinnamon was handled correctly — something most restaurants here get slightly wrong.

Sri Lankan cuisine differs markedly between Sinhalese, Tamil, and Burgher traditions on the same island. It was the a Colombo rice and curry lunch memory that I was really chasing and this recreated it. king coconut water was offered and brought the whole experience together. Some dishes are attached to a time and place. This one finally restored that attachment.
