Must do cooking class - Edit
He knows his stuff! I am a vegan chef so I’m quite critical but I actually learnt so much and loved his passion, his kitchen, his knowledge on the healing properties of ingredients.

Something really unique - Edit
When going here it is absolutely recommended to get something unusual such as banana coffee or the jungle salad. Those dishes have a flavor that is really unique as the owner and cook uses lots of different spices and ingredients (even the banana coffee is with spices).

Very local but expensive - Edit
Nice staff, kinda liked the local garden style exterior, food like food - was interesting to try. The bad - For simple salad, small coco soup and some pita style coco bread with coco souce 5000 local money. Ok I can agree with price at some point but then please serve at least on a clean dishes so customers can have a feeling that it’s something special.

Best food we ever had - Edit
It’s an amazing place to sit down and to get inspired by the decorations. Shan (the host) is so friendly and kind. He cooks with so much passion & love. Every meal and dish is fresh made and so full of different kinds of taste. We really recommend this place because it’s so authentic and pure.

Inspiring cooking class at Shan's - Edit
Shan, the host, has made this cooking class the best experience in Sri Lanka. I'm going to stay in a posh hotel on the west coast next week, but there I will probably not be able to have a peek in the kitchen and learn from the chef. Not only about cooking, ingredients, spices, but also about food and the effect on our health.
Read moreI had a private class (as no one else had booked the class tonight) and I enjoyed every minute of it. We cooked a pumpkin curry with beet root salad and a coco sambol. For dessert I had a coconut pineapple raw cake. It was all delicious and off course all vegan and organic.
If you are planning to go to the cooking class, be aware it's not going to be cheap. The prices on the regular menu might give you an indication. For me it was worth every rupee, as I'll be taking new cooking inspiration home with me. Cooking classes are available for lunch and dinner.
Pros: Great host, Completely vegan and organic
Cons: Expensive (but for me it was worth it).
