Srilanka is just an hour's flight away from Maldives thus no wonder why expats & locals could frequent Colombo (the capital of the country) anytime..From time to time special airfares are launched and due to that we normally take advantage of the promo (when I went there last week I purchased a return airfare for US$ 189 only). So anyway what I am trying to tell here is that with my recent visit (after my 08th-10th visit I think) I discovered something I should share with you (how come I came to know of this refreshment area just recently?). I know the place and have been here before but didn't try the Cafe' prrffft!
If you happen to be in Colombo I suggest that you visit Paradise Road Cafe (this is only if you are a lover of cheesecake!). I may sound exaggerated but the best cheesecake I have ever tasted was at this place. I am not a cake lover but this one is just so yummy!
Double Cheesecake @ 575rupees around 5usd (if I remember it right)
I remember the taste but the price? oh! :D
By the way this place is not just a cafe but actually a shop where you can find good selection of collectibles, gift items, houseware stuff. So this cafe was added to serve the tired customers from shopping at the 2nd floor of the building or the vice versa. Either eating light meals first before you shop! You know I can stay at this place the whole day (ahihihi!) With that I say now I know why they didn't install wifi connection here :D
The Cafe (there's an extension of Veranda too)
Selection of Table runners
The white room (selection of cups etc')
Fruit Jam corner and selection of place mats
and a lot more photos of the shop
Their Address:
Paradise Road Cafe
213 Dharmapala Mawatha Colombo 7
(easy to find ...all tuktuk or taxi drivers know this place I guess)

Ang ganda naman ng place!
Oo maganda sya. Puro nakaw ang pagkuha ko ng picture. Hehe'
Neng, its an institution gajud sa CMB. I went there to check the souvenir items sa store nila kc we are thinking of getting them for the hotel shop. Pero ang mahal ng food lalo na pag mag full dinner ka doon! At least 20usd per pax talaga and its expensive na ha for CMB!
would love to drop by at this place during my next visit to Colombo..
