DESSERTS
If no one is around at this window-front outlet attached to a house, ring a bell and soon
one of the King's family will appear to offer you a choice of Galle's best ice cream. The
passion fruit is simply divine.
Mamas Galle Fort
SRI LANKAN
Malini Perera is the true 'Mama' of Mama's fame. She and her daughters are now cooking
up their much-loved and dead-simple rice and curries at this small house. Everything is
ultra-fresh and you can learn how to prepare these meals yourself at her cooking classes
(US$30) which include a trip to the new town market.
Anura's Restaurant
INTERNATIONAL
This tiny bright-orange hole-in-the-wall place caters to backpackers and serves curries,
various pasta dishes and pretty good pizzas. The paintings on the wall give it something of
a cafe-gallery feel.
Spoon's Cafe
SRI LANKAN
Shamil Roshan Careem hails from one of the Fort's oldest families and he loves to cook.
Lucky us! In his new and tiny cafe he serves up some superb curries; his takes on old fam-
ily recipes. Save room for dessert as his superb 'Silk Route Toffee' may be the best thing to
cross your lips in Sri Lanka.
