Mayura - Wattala

So cheap and one of the best curry and rice’s we had while in Sri Lanka. Make sure you try the famous fish curry and use your hands like a local.

So yes there is the Ministry of Crab, The Fat Crab, and the Crab Factory and yes you will get huge crabs and super surroundings, but for me, the best place to eat crab in Colombo is at the Mayura Hotel. The crabs are way smaller but super tasty, it is not a night out type of place, it is super cheap, busy but delicious. This is my number place for great tasty crab.

This is a good place to experience a typical street restaurant full with local labours work around the area. Tried crab curry with omlet with a bottle of Pepsi cost me around Rs. 800.

A very local place.....be ready for great food and simple place. A local freind took me here. You're served in a banana leaf...4 vegetable dishes and rice, and you choose your main dish. We tried the Fish curry, cuttlefish curry and an omlette. Simply wonderful!!! Service is very good and attentive, given it was quite busy.

Very simple, very local. You must try the crab, prawn, squid and fish curries top it of with an omelette. Absolutely the best. A place to eat, and get out can be crowded, hot and stuffy; but the simply the best local food!
