Had to put in to words the awesomeness of the Sri Lankan food relished at Red Box located in Qusais, while the food is still in my belly. The much anticipated trip was finally made this evening.
Ambiance - Not so Sri Lankan, Chef Lanka does it better. The modern hip hop and pop played was a turn off, but the waiters are friendly, and overall the place is homely.
Variety - Not too many, probably coz it's still a virgin venture.
Drawbacks - No rice and curry during dinner, no buffet and no Ginger Beer :(
But on the whole it was heaven on earth for us deprived Sri Lankans in Dubai and away from the hub. And so the order for two went like this.....
String hoppers - AED 12
Hoppers (4 plain and one egg hopper) - AED 12
Prawn Curry - AED 16
Beef Curry (Spicy as hell) - AED 16
Wood Apple Drink - AED 8 each
Tea (as per the typical Sri Lankan flavour) - AED 2.50 each
Thrilled and way over the moon to finally have a Sri Lankan restaurant which is cheap, clean and scrumptious in the neighbourhood. Unfortunately, they do not deliver during the day and I don't eat solids during the night......either way, can't wait to go back for the second experience.
