New at the Cauldron: Cold brew coffee range and more
View(s):The eclectic artsy café that is the brainchild of husband-wife duo Tharanga and Dush, THE CAULDRON celebrates its 4th year in operation with new additions to its menu favourites.
Tharanga Kasadoruge launched the place with over 17 years’ experience both locally and internationally. With a deep interest in the science of coffee, Tharanga believes that Sri Lanka has the potential to be returned to its once acclaimed position in world coffee production. Among the few coffee professionals in the country, he has international training and qualifications in Specialty Coffee.
Dush on the other hand comes from a Finance and Marketing background and their complementary skills set make it an effective partnership.
Sheer determination and lots of love for all things good, a committed team and a bunch of amazing customers who by now have become friends helped them to make it through the first year and the challenging times faced due to the pandemic, they say.
In their fourth year with their team intact still producing those delicious dishes curated by Dush, including the unique Pol Roti Kottu, Umbalakade Pol Sambol and Egg Fried Rice to name a few from their menu, they have also introduced new creations such as the Chilli Prawn Stir Fried Noodles made using a home-made chili paste without any preservatives or additives, Char Grilled Chicken with Butter Garlic Rice and Lime Chilli Salt, Veggie Loader Rice with Grilled Haloumi, and more.
The new menu also includes some innovative drinks as the Chocolate Mojito and Chili Hot Chocolate, along with the latest addition of THE CAULDRON Cold Brew coffee range. They also have a choice of seasonal Single Origin Specialty Coffees including home grown.
Chamara Munasinghe, a former professional Market Researcher and entrepreneur, is now co-owner of Cauldron & Co (Pvt) Ltd. “We are glad we found a business partner that understands and agrees with the core reasons for the existence of THE CAULDRON, and because he supports us to continue the story we started,” Tharanga says.
