A rather quaint eatery, Ceylon Curry, located next door to New Asha, offers a selection of Sri Lankan favorites at reasonable prices. With red tablecloths on tables, a small buffet table below Sri Lankan art, and a rather bright interior, Ceylon Curry offers a casual sit-down dining experience. The restaurant takes its name from the former name of Sri Lanka which changed in 1972.

Ceylon Curry’s menu is similar to that of nearby New Asha with a few notable differences. Ceylon Curry offers a selection of small appetizers like mutton roti, fish buns, and seeni sambol buns, filled with caramelized onion relish. In addition to a selection of fried rice dishes, the eatery also offers biryani prepared with saffron and herbs with choice of protein. As the restaurant’s name suggests, the restaurant also offers a selection of curries with options like fish and chicken in addition to deviled dishes with green and red peppers and ginger. There are also a selection of kotthu roti dishes, lamprais, and a few specialty dishes like coconut roti and pittu, rice meal and coconut served in a cylindrical shape.
