Dining

  • In Galle, fresh produce and seafood are available in abundance all year round; famous for delectable lobster and jumbo prawns, plus the luxury of being able to select from the widest range of the freshest fruit and vegetables. No surprise then that freshness forms the foundation of the food philosophy.
    The menu is quite literally a wonderful journey, since inspiration is drawn from the famous Spice Route – the one merchants travelled from Europe to the mysterious lands of the East, in search of exotic spices.
    Every dish that makes its aromatic way from the kitchen to your table, is also laced with that most precious ingredient – inspiration.
