POV: You ask how many mutton rolls chef can make and the owner and the owner’s daughter (who also works at copper ceylon as a waitress) starts saying numbers 😭🔥

Episode 7: Rice & Curry 🇱🇰🍛
One thing about Sri Lankan “rice and curry”… it’s never just one curry 👀
From dhal, carrot sambol, eggplant, moju and mango, to green beans, cabbage, mallum, potato cutlets and papadams… this was one of the most authentic vegetarian spreads we had during our trip.
Cooked using traditional family methods in Manori’s kitchen, this is the kind of food that reminds you why Sri Lankan home cooking is so special 🇱🇰✨
Simple ingredients. Big flavours. Pure authenticity.

Episode 6: Fresh From Negombo 🇱🇰🦀
An early morning at Negombo Fishery Market collecting fresh lagoon crabs, lagoon prawns, and the catch of the day straight from the source.
From walking through the market ourselves to taking the ingredients directly to the chef this was all about experiencing how authentic Sri Lankan seafood should really taste.
Fresh ingredients. Authentic flavours. No shortcuts.
That’s exactly the energy we’re trying to bring to Copper Ceylon 🍛✨
Big thank you to Jetwing and the chefs for looking after us throughout the experience 🤝🏾

Episode 5: From Farm to Table 🇱🇰🌿
This trip has been all about exploring organic produce, experimenting with different spices, flavours, and understanding where great food truly begins.
From fresh cassava and farm-grown ingredients to traditional toddy tapped straight from the trees 🍶🌴 — a naturally fermented palm drink that’s been part of Sri Lankan culture for generations.
Every stop on this journey is helping us bring more authentic flavours and stories back to your plate at Copper Ceylon ✨🍛

Episode 4: Dried Fish 🇱🇰🐟
Today we visited the local fish markets in Negombo to see how Sri Lankan dried fish is traditionally prepared.
From cleaning the fish, to soaking it in salt water for days, and finally drying it under the sun for over a week — this process helps preserve it for up to a year.
For many Sri Lankans, dried fish isn’t just food. It’s culture, nostalgia, and a staple side dish that’s been part of rice & curry meals for generations.
What most people don’t realise is that it’s also a huge export industry back home too 👀
One thing about Sri Lanka… every ingredient has a story 🇱🇰✨
Sri Lankan food is medicine — spice, soul, and healing in every bite.
