Drinks

We kicked off our evening with drinks that were as refreshing as the ocean breeze. The Virgin Mojito (1100 LKR) and Tamarind Cooler (1100 LKR) were both absolute winners—packed with flavor, perfectly balanced, and so refreshing.

Starters

For starters, we went all in with some mouthwatering bites. The Golden Fried Prawn Balls (2880 LKR for 3 pieces) were crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and completely addictive. Honestly, we couldn’t stop reaching for more! Paired with the Deep-Fried Wontons (1680 LKR for 6 pieces), which were equally satisfying and packed with flavor, our appetites were already off to a great start. But the prawn balls? Hands down the crowd favorite.

Mains

Next up, the mains- this is where the real excitement happened. The Mixed Seafood Fried Rice (2480 LKR) was more than enough to share among three people and absolutely hit the spot. Packed with fresh seafood and rich flavors, this dish was a full-on flavor bomb! We also couldn’t resist adding the Sizzling Stir-Fried Cuttlefish in Chilli Sauce (2680 LKR) to the mix. With the perfect level of spice and tender cuttlefish that practically melted in your mouth, it paired so well with the fried rice—each bite just left us craving more.

But the highlight of the night? The Chinese Steamed Rice (400 LKR) with Hunan-Style Stir-Fried Beef with Chilli (1780 LKR). This was our absolute favorite! The beef was perfectly tender, cooked to perfection, and drenched in that mouthwatering chili sauce that gave it the perfect kick. Trust us, you won’t want to miss this one.

Desserts

And, of course, no meal is complete without dessert. We treated ourselves to the Ice Cream with Lychee, and let me tell you—it was a refreshing and delightful way to end the meal. The creamy ice cream paired perfectly with the sweet, juicy lychees, offering the ideal balance of flavors to wrap up an incredible dining experience.
