Shangri-La Colombo Launches Tiki Bar

Shangri-La Colombo launched its new urban oasis overlooking the Indian Ocean – the Tiki Bar on Tuesday.

Offering an elevated casual ambience with island inspired culinary delights and tropical beverages, Tiki Bar looks to provide an escape from the city bustle with music and an intriguing line-up of entertainment.

With both indoor and alfresco seating Tiki Bar is the perfect spot to watch golden sunsets in a laid-back tropical setting, ideal for after-work gatherings. The bar featuring skilled mixologists, presents a large range of 55 house made local arrack infusions featuring a variety of potent, natural ingredients from Beli Mal and Ranawana to Ginger Peel and Narang and a choice of mocktails and fresh juices which are a testament to Sri Lanka's rich natural abundance. Served in its trademark Tiki mugs the infusions are a twist of fun blended with tropical lusciousness.

Tiki Bar boasts a curated menu by Executive Chef Patrick Buttgereit, featuring authentic dishes from islands across the world including, Japan, Hawaii, Cuba, the Caribbean islands, Jamaica, Sri Lanka and Indonesia.

The design of Tiki Bar is a vibrant celebration of Sri Lankan culture, incorporating elements such as wooden elephant carvings and a mosaic of Sri Lankan devil masks, embellished with fiery island sunsets.

The Tiki Bar is open from Wednesday to Sunday, from 5 pm to 12 midnight.
