"To me the beauty of Ceylon lies not so much in its blue seas and golden beaches, its jungles and its mountain peaks, as in its ancient atmosphere. There is no nation, from Egypt of the Pharaohs to modern Britain, in whose literature this island has not at some time been mentioned by one or other of its many names -- Lanka, Serendib, Taprobane, Cellao, Zellan, to recall a few. History lies buried in its sands, and ghosts of romance lurk among its bastioned rocks, for Lanka is very, very old."

Time sure flies. I can't believe its been almost an year that I last hosted my dear friend's lovely event - AWED. ..and this time I am back with another exciting theme for all of you and Yes, you guessed it right! in this month 's 'A Worldly Epicurean’s Delight', - we are touring through the scrumptious cuisine of 'the Pearl of Indian Ocean' - Sri Lanka :).
A simple google search came up with these links which provide us a varied variety of dishes that can be made out of this delectable cuisine. refer to this, this and this.
