Lotus curry at Machan Kitchen in Croydon
Menu with V for vegan and VE/VEG for vegetarian; so wish we had legislation to standardise on e.g. V for veg and VV for veg and vegan ingredients! at Machan Kitchen in Croydon
Great to see 'VEGAN' mentioned on the awning :-) at Machan Kitchen in Croydon

Great Sri Lankan!

My partner and I came here for a date night as we wanted to try something a bit different. Sri Lankan food is not that easy to find in Croydon, especially vegan Sri Lankan. Their vegan dishes are clearly marked on the menu and there are plenty of them.
We had the lotus seed curry and a cashew nut curry, both of which we really enjoyed. They also had some interesting rice variations which made a nice change from the usual basmati or boiled rice we find in Indians.
We had to have string hoppers on the side of course, being a typical dish from the country. Not sure why they weren't served with a sauce though but we requested a sweet chilli one which went well with them.
Sadly there were no vegan desserts but it was a great meal nonetheless.

Pros: Lots of clear vegan options, Unique and tasty food

Cons: Not all vegan, No vegan desserts
