My partner and I decided to eat at Escoffier on my birthday this year as we had not yet been and had seen the restaurant several times from the Galle Road. What a find! The service is attentive, the food was delicious. I had the chicken fillet in a mushroom sauce and was impressed by the fact that there were... More

So there we were, driving along nicely and we thought we'd stop for lunch. The beach caught our attention. So we left the car. I locked it. And on locking it, the key snapped. As a middle aged fat grumpy old english man, the swear jar was overflowing . We're stuck in bentota, with a car that can now not... More
