New Indo-Lanka Restaurant — Restaurant in Baushrieh

Casual, no-frills place with great South Asian/Sri Lankan food. Recommend the masala dosa with coconut chutney. Chai masala after the meal was amazing. The place was filled with locals/Sri Lankan people who told me that they’re regulars and the food is up to par!

I paid 6,000 LPP for masala dosa, vada curry and chai masala.

It's an experience that's worth your while if you're the kind of person who would try street food in a...

Real quick and authentic Indian food. The owner (I presume) was very friendly and helpful. He was patient with us while we searched through the menu and recommend certain dishes. Cleanliness and hygiene are low but I didn't expect them to be high for such a store-back canteen. The food is amazing. We order different dishes and they were all perfectly prepared. My most favorite dish was the one containing "Nun". The menu doesn't have any prices on it which I didn't appreciate but in the ended it was cheap in comparison to nearby places. I recommend the experience. You could also shop your way out through the Indian grocery store. Weird looking exotic veggies...
