Sri Lanka Rice and Curry vol.1

Sri Lankans love a home cooking,  and everyone cooks their home traditional Rice and Curry.

Everyday I was thinking of what I eat for a dinner.." I had Rice and Curry last night so I try something

different tonight."  Then I found out myself ordering Rice and Curry.  Each night I went to different

restaurants..why not?

At local eating places they make a curry very very hot and spicy which is nice but almost can make fire in a mouth.

By the end of my stay in Sri Lanka, I had my favourite curry shop and not only a curry but their Kottu roti  was so yummy and I sometimes miss it!.

My Sri Lanka Trip

There are fruits trees and vegetables growing in their gardens.  When it is ready, you just pick them up.

I think this is rich.  They live with what they need basically and feel happy about it.

The average earning is maybe the one fifth of our earning , so it is not easy for them to go abroad and

travel around.. Electricity has risen up to 50 to 60%, this is very expensive for them.  It is very hot most
of the time, so the tourists use the air conditioner if they live in a house, that is expensive.

The concrete house absorb the hot air from outside, and this is what they use for a house material these days.  The mud box( bricks) is cheaper and cooler. I don't understand why more people use concrete to build the house.  Not only Sri Lankans but we all need to learn sustainable life style.

I need 100mouths and stomaches ...Kuala Lumpur

This year 2013 I spend more time in Sri Lanka and Malaysia than in Australia.
I just came back from there and  my friend in KL searches the restaurants and cafes whenever she has a time,  so we cruised into " Purple Cane Tea Restaurants" one of the best I have ever dinned.

The green stuff is not a green tea, I don't know what is called but the flavour  spread into your mouth softly.  The taste is not bitter at all.

We made a excellent choice of the foods here.





Oyster mushroom



Tofu  , this is sooo good
