Fave lankan food?

Or aunty network moment?

[vashappenin]

Mmm, Lankan food.. Now we're really talking
Where do I start? Pittu, Stringhoppers, Kottu, Hoppers, Wattalapan, the rice in the banana leaf (haha cant remember what it's called), those really yum sugar buns they sell at local lankan bakeries, oil cakes, dodol, vada (esp. the donut ones dipped in the orange sambol), egg rolls, FALUDA, curd with kithul syrup
Lol sorry if you've got no idea what I'm on about.. I'm pretty sure these are what they're called.. Well atleast that's how I call these foods..
But yeah, the list goes on

Same! Haha dodol I don't like, but i like Kevum as well!

What about Bitthara-aapa?

Sinhala or Tamil?

[vashappenin]

Cool! Haha what's that? Maybe I'll know if you describe it
Tamil.. so we call kevum paniyaaram (or something like that ), etc.
But I'm muslim, so we don't speak the full-on proper tamil (I think it's influenced by arabic or something..it's not THAT different from proper tamil, but there are some obvs differences), but my parents know sinhalese too
You? I'm guessing sinhala

[thushan]

Egg hoppers

Ah! Yup I'm Sinhala

[vashappenin]

Ooooh yeah I love those!
