Pasta’ salad and sandwiches are fine but sometimes a man has
to have something hot fiery and ricey which will sit in his stomach like a ball
of lead. I am that kind of man who loves his food hot and spicy. Wait that is
an understatement. Hot and Fiery is more like it.
Now I know I have been
joining in the chorus of praises which have been sung about the Pedlar’s Inn café.
I think they deserve each and every one of them because they really do an
excellent job. However I have found one tiny weenie thing lacking in their offering.
That is a dish which would fit the need which I have outlined in the earlier
paragraph. Till I found this thing called Curry Rice tucked away in a corner
virtually hiding away from my hungry eyes in their menu. I ordered a “Prawn
Curry Rice” and I can say it is a chilli aficionados’ dream come true. As the
name so aptly puts it across the dish consists of a (slightly) wet fried rice
mixed with a delicious and tasty prawn curry. They were extremely generous with
the prawns as well. To me every mouthful was heavenly bursting with flavor and
spice. If there was one improvement I would suggest it would be to serve it
along with a salad and some fries as well. The cost was about 900/- but it was
great value for money. I just thought I should share it on here just in case
there are some people out there who share similar yearnings. But I must confess
I can’t wait to drive down to Galle and try it once more. Just to make sure
that what I wrote was correct. J
