  • Back in Sri Lanka and this time starting off the trip in Colombo with a Sri Lankan specialty called Cheese Kottu.
    I took a small bus from CMB airport to Colombo Fort that cost only 200 LKR and took 1 hour 30 minutes.
    From the bus station I walked to my hotel in the Colombo Fort area. The hotel, C1, was basic but clean and comfortable with friendly staff.
    During the walk to the hotel I flexed my bargaining skills again at Pettah Market to buy a new baseball cap and picked up some milk sweets from Bombay Sweets.
    It was the hotel receptionist that told me the best place to eat nearby was Pillawoos Hotel on Chatham Street and that Cheese Kottu is the most delicious thing on the menu. His recommendation was a good one.

    "Ayubowan" is NOT "Good morning". Ayubowan is basically "May you live long" and you can use that word anytime anywhere when you meet someone. It is basically a well-wishing.

      The name Dolphin Kottu was invented during the days of final war in Srilanka. Srilankan law and order enforced kottu stalls not to make noice in night time as during those days people were frightened and the sound of koththu blowing may end up creating a scary situation. So, Kottu stalls were forced to create a new way to keep their business running and that's how they recreated the kottu with Pan. Instead of making Kottu in kottu trays, large pans were used to make Kottu. So, when the Kottu master throws the kottu in air while preparing it in the pan, it looks like a "dolphin jumping out of ocean and falling back in to it." Just remind the moment when the person who prepares Kottu, throwing it in the air from Pan. That's how the name was created. Pillawoos Hotel became the first to create Dolphine Kottu during 2009. Now even after the war, we still love Dolphin Kottus and keep making them. Kottu found a new dimension through a pressure situation.

    Born in Puerto Rico, we learn an islander's way barter. You are just like us in the Caribbean: Not afraid to talk straight with no disrespect. I've noticed your behaviour in your Sri Lanka videos and you come across very comfortable in your attitude to the entire way of doing business there. You don't do the tourist bow to pressure.
    No bullox, mate.
    My Russian acquaintances are even more direct. The Scottish and the Irish have that in common with us Caribbeans.

      Thanks mate. For anything that I want to buy I try to learn the correct local price beforehand so that I can comfortably barter when I'm quoted a higher price. There have still been times in my videos that I've been overcharged but I've still done far better than 99% of western tourists I reckon.

    Dale, the kottu menu which read as dolphin is actually not dolphin meat.
    It's chicken mixed kottu made with "parata roti". As the texture is thicker they have named it "dolphin".
    Abosolutely not related to the beautiful dolphin found in the ocean.

      It’s beautiful to see people support their own country. when we see someone from a different country praise Sri Lanka it’s our job to thank him and make him welcomed. So yeah it’s no surprise that the most comments and likes are from Sri Lankan’s.

    'Ayubowan' is the Sri Lankans' greeting. It means May you live long....! You can use it through all day...!

      I think Harald went to another Pillawoos in Colombo 03. I went to the one in Colombo Fort area. I think if a restaurant gets popular then other ones copy the name. Same with Bombay Sweets. I don't know which one is original.

      @@Dale_Philip no there are a number of pillawoos restaurants in colombo all are authentic they are branches but as i know the one Harald went is the founder restaurant and bombay sweets also has branches islandwide(mostly colombo) btw copying a brand name is illegal as they are registered shops and yes its very popular with the locals too.

      @@Dale_Philip The very first Pillawoos was established in Colombo 03. It was the most famous restaurant at that time and in most novels the name was mentioned.
      BTW, from next Tuesday Kandy Esala Perahera will start. Plan to see it dale as you are in the country.
