Sri Lanka’s Top Buffet 🔥 Quizine

After trying all Colombo’s 5-star hotel buffets, I can confidently say: Quizine deserves its “Best Value” crown! Sitting by the rooftop pool, the entire Indian Ocean stretches out before you—fresh sashimi, piles of seafood, Japanese-style hot dishes, unlimited Dilmah drinks… all for just over ¥100 per person. This deal makes other buffets look overpriced🌊 🌊 Ambiance: Rooftop Pool + Ocean Panorama, Dining Like a Vacation Stepping onto the rooftop, I was blown away—the pool glows like a sapphire, white umbrellas line its edge, and tables hug the rooftop perimeter. Look up, and fluffy clouds drift by; look down, and waves roll in, with distant boats floating like toys on blue-green water. Even better at dusk! Sunset dyes the sea amber, gilding sashimi plates with gold. A couple at the next table snapped photos nonstop, saying “10x brighter than stuffy 5-star dining rooms.” The rooftop breeze keeps you cool, even while gorging on seafood—this “feast + vacation” vibe is unbeatable🥹 🍣 Dishes: From Sashimi to Dessert, Every Bite Feels Like a Steal Don’t let the price fool you—Quizine’s spread is packed with care: Freshly Sliced Sashimi Bar: Taste the Ocean’s Freshness Salmon, tuna, amberjack, crab stick… a chef stands at the ice counter, slicing thick, generous pieces. Salmon melts in your mouth, rich with buttery fat; tuna glows pink, firm and springy. Dip in wasabi and soy, and the briny sweetness hits hard. Grabbed three plates, and the chef grinned, “Take more—no limits”🍣 Seafood Galore: Crabs, Prawns, Shellfish Piled High Blue crabs, tiger prawns, clams, mussels… all glistening on crushed ice, super fresh. Crack a crab, and the white meat shines—squeeze fresh lime, and it’s sweet with a zing, better than steamed. Prawns peel easily, plump and bouncy; even shellfish lovers will go crazy for the sand-free clams🦀 Hot Dishes: Japanese Kaiseki-Inspired Small Plates No messy big bowls here—hot dishes come as “Japanese kaiseki-style” small plates: tiny portions of teriyaki eel, glossy and tender enough to eat bones and all; Japanese fried chicken with crispy skin, juicy inside, served with tangy tartar sauce; even local curries arrive in small copper pots, rich with coconut milk, perfect with hopper (coconut pancake bowls)🍽️ Desserts & Drinks: No Corners Cut Drinks are all Dilmah! Rich Ceylon tea, creamy with milk; freshly ground coffee, bitter with a caramel finish—refills as much as you want☕ The dessert station is a mini candy store: crème brûlée gets a torch-toasted crust tableside, “sizzling” with caramel aroma); house-made ice cream in mango, coconut, chocolate—swirl with caramel sauce, sweet but not cloying. Macarons, fruit tarts… too many to try, stomach space runs out first🍮 💰 Value: ¥100+ to Eat Till You Burst—Everyone Agrees The math speaks for itself: A simple meal in Colombo costs 4,000-5,000 LKR (~¥100), but Quizine’s 6,000+ LKR (~¥100+) lets you gorge on sashimi, seafood, hot dishes, and desserts; Compared to 5-star buffets (often 10,000+ LKR), Quizine matches freshness and variety—plus adds a “rooftop ocean view” bonus; Locals love it too—weekends fill up fast, with Sri Lankan families piling prawns on plates, saying “Cheaper than buying and cooking at home.” 📍 Pro Tips: How to Make the Most of It Best time: Arrive before 6 PM to catch sunset and beat crowds; Pro hack: Pair sashimi with fresh wasabi (fresher than pre-made), seafood with lime + chili salt, and grab extra teriyaki eel from hot dishes; Location: Search “Quizine” on Google Maps. Follow signs to the rooftop—you’ll see the pool, 20 minutes by taxi from downtown. Leaving, I took a photo by the pool, stomach stuffed, with tuna still on my tongue. Suddenly, I got why it’s “Buffet No.1”—it’s not about being expensive, but making everyone smile and say “This was so worth it.” Want “seafood freedom + ocean views” in Colombo? Quizine’s the spot—guaranteed you’ll leave planning your return✨ #ColomboFood #SriLankaBuffet #OceanViewDining #SeafoodLovers #TravelOnABudget
