Ceylon Restaurant Sri Lankan & Indian Cuisine Milano Piazza Firenze — Restaurant in Milan

We were lucky enough to get a table without a reservation. Our waiter was very friendly and accommodating. As it was our first time in a restaurant with Sri Lankan cuisine, he asked us how spicy we eat and what our preferences are (meat, vegan, etc.). We put together a colourful mix of starters and relied fully on the recommendation here. We had a deep-fried dumpling filled with vegetables and an egg. Damn tasty. As a recommendation, we ordered vegetarian noodle and chicken kottu. There were also several Sri Lankan beers, each described in detail regarding taste, brewing method and alcohol content.

We had rice and chicken curry, beef kottu and watalappam as dessert which is basically a 🍮 pudding. Worth a visit if you're in the...

Another new experience, but again, a very limited menu. Prepare for hot dishes. My companion wouldn't go again, I'm on the fence. I enjoyed the meal, I have to say. It was all unusual food and very tasty. Service was quick too. But it just wasn't that much of an event. I felt like I was in a cafe. Staff weren't that friendly, but they were prompt. A lot of the chicken was on the bone so portions were relatively small. For 41 euros (2 main dishes with water and 1 dessert,) I did expect more value for money, considering it isn't really a restaurant and more like a...
