Sri Lankan cooking is vibrant and varied, far more than a single curry. Try:
- Rice and curry — a spread of many small dishes
- Hoppers (appa) — bowl-shaped fermented pancakes
- Kottu roti, chopped flatbread stir-fried on a hot plate
- Dhal and coconut sambol (pol sambol)
- Fresh seafood along the coasts
- Tropical fruit — king coconut, mango, rambutan
- String hoppers for breakfast
- World-famous Ceylon tea
