The monthly Hopper Night at Cinnamon Lakeside Colombo will come again on Friday, 29 July at the Terrace overlooking the pool and Beira Lake from 7.00 pm to 11.00 pm.
The chefs at Cinnamon Lakeside are masters at preparing authentic Sri Lankan cuisine and their skills are showcased at the hotel’s monthly Hopper Night. In addition to traditional recipes, the chefs put some of their own creativity to play.
The simple crispy hopper, the focal item of the night takes on many forms. Diners may try cheese and chili hoppers, seeni sambol hoppers, kiri appa, pani pol hoppers or masala hoppers, and of course the popular egg hopper.
In addition to this, a spread of pittu complemented by tripe curry locally referred to as babath, string hoppers, kotthu rotti, chicken curry, crispy cuttlefish, beef curry, fish ambulthiyal - a sour smoked preparation of fish, potatoes curried in a thick coconut gravy and many other items make up the splendid Sri Lankan buffet.
The local sweetmeats too come in all shapes, sizes, colours and textures like Lavariya, dodol, milk toffee, kokis, kavum, asmi, halapa, mung kavum to coconut rock and banana fritters amongst others.
A calypso band and a troupe of Kandyan dancers keep guests entertained throughout the night.
