Description:
Probably the best meal out in the whole of Sri Lanka can be found at Spoons, located inside the Hilton Hotel. The food is absolutely divine, even by the very high standards of the Hilton.
The service can be extremely slow - it's definitely no good for a quick bite - but the food is well worth the wait. There's also a good wine list. Well it is the Hilton after all! The kitchen is open in the middle of the restaurant as well - so you can see the chef at work and just how carefully crafted the food is.
The Hilton also has several other great restaurants such as Il Ponte (Italian), Emperor's Wok (Chinese) and The Curry Leaf (Sri Lankan). But Spoons is my overall favourite.
Favorite Dish:
The menu changes regularly, but I think the best dish I've ever had here was roast duck that literally melted in my mouth!
Prices:
US$21-30
