Fork & Spoon
Socializing is very in these days and knowing one's Ps and Qs is sometimes a must. Especially when you're seated down at a very properly laid out table. Dimo Mercedes Benz Centre, 800 Sirimavo Bandaranaike Mawatha, Colombo.
Chaotic Carols
Here's a rocky Christmassy event to go to on a Saturday night. Especially for those who like their music a tad rocky, here's just the thing the doctor ordered: a very heavy pre-Christmas cheer of head banging just for the rockers and metal heads. The Keg Pub & Restaurant, 338 T.B Jayah Mawatha, Colombo 10.
The Old, The Bad, The Ugly
If there's one band that you cannot miss in Colombo, it's Wagon Park. Quite a few of us over at Yamu HQ are fans, so we can't not write about their free gig at Shamrock, on December 12. Shamrock Pub, 64/4, Chatham Street, Colombo 1
Sunday, December 13
