Aliyaa Restaurant & Bar proudly presents “Lost Recipes of Ceylon”, an exclusive kitchen takeover by Chef Sudheera Bandara on 12 & 13 November.

In this two-night dining experience, Chef Sudheera reimagines the forgotten recipes of Sri Lanka’s regions — from the coasts of Mathara to the highlands of Jaffna — reviving dishes that once defined the island’s culinary heritage.

The menu features an elegant progression of flavours:

• Lemongrass-infused Lobster Thambun Hodi — a tangy herbal soup from Mathara, Sri Lanka.

• Smoked Mutton Chops with Goda Hodda and Mussels Hodi with Thathi Paan — slow-cooked mutton and creamy seafood curry served with wood-fired bread.

• A Main Course featuring his Signature Mud Crab Thakkadi, served alongside traditional accompaniments.

• Desserts from Jaffna, including Rasawalli Kilangu (purple yam pudding) and Pani Pittu with poached fruits and roasted nuts.

Each dish is a celebration of authenticity, flavour, and memory — a tribute to the island’s diverse culinary traditions.

Limited seats available. Reserve early to experience this rare journey through the Lost Recipes of Ceylon.
