👀 WATCH Sri Lankan Street Food in Colombo: https: // • SRI LANKAN Street Food...
We started off our massive Sri Lankan street food tour tasting the locally made curd, mee kiri. Super tasty, full of delicious rich flavour, this was a great start to the Sri Lankan street food in Colombo.
We continued trying the best street food in Sri Lanka tasting hot butter cuttlefish and ice milo. These are some of the most popular foods you must try in Sri Lanka!
We finished off our Sri Lanka food tour heading to Galle Face Green in the evening. This is a busy spot for street food in Colombo, Sri Lanka, and we came to try kottu roti and isso vada. Kottu roti and isso vada are very popular street foods to eat in Colombo especially, and we were blown away by their flavour and taste, truly delicious. Any trip to Colombo isn't complete without visiting Galle Face Green and trying the iconic kottu roti and isso vade!
We hope you enjoy our Sri Lankan street food tour in Colombo, tasting kottu roti and isso vada for the first time. Stay tuned for more street food adventures tasting the must try street foods of Sri Lanka!

Sri lanka is the one of most beautiful country i have ever visited ❤🎉
It is beautiful, we agree! We enjoyed our time there so much
4:30 Kokis: deep-fried rosette cookies made of rice flour and coconut milk. Originally brought by the Dutch i think?
4:53 Kevum: oil cakes made from kithul treacle and rice flour. The one you tried, "konda kevum" is so-named because it looks like a hair bun x)
5:13 Thala guli: balls/rolls of sesame seeds and jaggery
5:45 Halapa: sweetened kurakkan/finger millet with coconut, steamed flat in a kenda leaf
Wow, thank you so much for the info and clarification of all those tasty treats! It's interesting to know exactly what is in them after trying them, much appreciated😄 they were tasty😋
For those who are living abroad, the closest thing to Curd and Treacle is Greek Yogurt and Maple Syrup
That's a pretty good substitute! Nicely done😉
I LOVE kottu roti since the first time I had it in Maldives (where they call it kottu roshi)! Unfortunately we don’t have any Sri Lankan restaurants in my neck of the woods, so I have to look for Indian restaurants that actually have them on the offer. Enjoy the rest of your trip there! Cheers from Indonesia! 🍻 🇮🇩
Thank you so much! We are kottu roti lovers as well. We're glad to hear that you can still get it at least at Indian restaurants in Indonesia 😋🤤 thanks for watching and commenting!
Sri Lankan it's a best enjoy country great super video sir 👍 👏
Thank you so much for watching! 😊
Finally someone is eating curd and honey!!! The tradition of all Sri Lankans…
Oh my gosh we love it!! Sooooo good😋🤤 thanks for watching :)
I am a Sri Lankan.... Nice to see that you're enjoying Sri Lankan food... ❤And also I enjoyed your video.... 😊
So glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching and commenting! We loved our time in Sri Lanka, would love to go back someday😊
Great video guys!! The mee kiri made my mouth water and it somehow reminded me of the Sutlac we had in Turkey. The kottu roti and Isso vada look incredible and especially with that view. We can’t wait to visit Sri Lanka 😁
The kottu roti is a must here in Sri Lanka, so tasty and flavourful, you guys would love it! The mee kiri was such a treat as well!! You will love Sri Lanka when you visit😊 thanks for watching guys!
we appreciate the pride you give to our country
Thank you for your comment and for watching. We've honestly had such a great time in Sri Lanka, the food, people, countryside, everything has been amazing 😊
Great pleasure to visit sri lanka 🇱🇰 come again. Thank you.🙏💚✨
Thank you so much for watching😊
Thank you for trying authentic local food, curd, cuttle fish and sweets ❤ love you guys
Thanks for watching, Madushi! The local food in Sri Lanka is delicious, we loved the curd so much, we have dreams about it 😋🤤
Great view.. Thanks guys
Thank you for watching!
Hello! 😊
That curd with treacle reminds me of taho (bean curd with caramelized brown sugar and tiny bobba). I can also imagine why it is eaten for breakfast. The other items in the shop looks just as tasty.
I love that look Steph gave Chris when he said that his Milo drink tastes better than hers. Hahaha! 😂 Those look like they have a milk foam on top. The sprinkling of milo powder on top seems like a great idea too. I'll be making one very cold one for myself one of these days.
I got a bit worried for Steph as she bit into the crab. But I guess, judging from the video, the crab shell got crispy from frying and is easier to eat than I though.
The last street food reminds me of okoy, a traditional PH dish often made with flour batter, julienned veg, bean sprouts, and shrimps. I do not see as many being made as street food though compared to way back when I was a kid.
Thanks again for another fun, interesting, and informative vid. See you two next meal. 😊✨️🫰🏻
Hey Cris! Thanks so much for watching and your comment, as always 🧡 The curd does remind us of taho as well, just much more sour, we love anything like that though.
Haha, the Ice Milo was refreshing and tasty, and we're sure they tasted the same 😜
The crab definitely got crispier once it was deep fried and easier to eat, but not as soft shelled as others we've had before.
We never tried okoy when we were in the Philippines actually, but it looks really tasty and similar to what we had. We'll definitely have to put it on the list for our next visit 😉 Thanks again Cris, all the best to you and see you next meal!
what an interesting video.

Wel come to Sri Lanka.....
Thank you so much😊
Thank you for this. I love the sound of the Kottu Roti hacking. Memories of Sri Lanka!! Ayubowan!! Tuk Tuks, the best are by Pick Me, they do not overcharge. Sadly, too many scammers on the streets!!
Thanks so much for watching! Sri Lanka is an incredible country, and the kottu roti is one of our faves 😊🧡
my country i love my country ❤❤
Such a wonderful country!! Thanks a lot for watching 😊
My country 🖤
A fantastic country it is!!
You Guys Should Visit Negambo if you wish to Eat Fresh Sea Food
Thanks for the suggestion, we've heard they have really good food there
Hi ... When name board says Hotel de Pilawoos ... it's not a Hotel. Its a restaurant. For some reason for a very very long years people used to call restaurants as hotel. Probably to match sinhala meaning (local main language)
They used to call them hotel because the best restaurants back in the British colonial times were inside hotels, so the name 'hotel' for restaurant just kind of stuck! So to this day restaurants are still called hotels ;) Thanks a lot for watching!
Wel come to Sri Lanka. The UFO's shape sweets called "kawun", round wheel sweet called "kokish".last one you ate is called "halpa".you must visit galle, Kandy, Ella, nuwaraeliya. It will be memorable ❤️
Oh awesome, thanks for letting us know the names!! The places you suggested we are definitely planning to visit, we've heard such great things about all those cities, and have been enjoying our time in Sri Lanka so much so far 😊 Thanks a lot for your comment and for watching!

Just be careful when ur trying the Isso vade, always check the vendor & make sure to ask whether its fresh or not, some of them have poor hygiene & use low quality ingredients, even the oil they use they get it from 5star hotels since they don't use that oil more than once. Just be careful
Thanks for the tips😉
