Sri Lanka has something for everyone. Whether it's fresh coconuts on the beach or a spicy dhal, you can be sure to find something that gets you asking for more.

There are lots of fresh fruit and juices available around Sri Lanka and the custom is to have this fruit served with curd. This is a wonderful mix of sweetness and bitterness and is often served with a generous helping of honey. Perfect for those hot, sunny mornings.

For later in the day why not try an egg hopper. Perfect as is or with a portion of dhal added inside for good measure. Dhal is a Sri Lankan staple, but beware, you'll miss it once it's gone.

If you're brave enough to sample the spicy main courses you're in for a taste sensation but beware they are hot! Get a lassi at the ready! I recommend papaya!

Why not wash it all down nicely as you stroll along the beach slurping from a fresh coconut.
