Hill Club
Dinner at Hill Club is an event in itself. The five-course set menu focuses on hearty meals like roast beef, served, with all the trimmings, promptly at 8pm.

For the formal dining room, men must wear a tie and jacket – there are a few on hand, but they sometimes run out – or Sri Lankan national dress.

Service is rather stiff and formal, but very prompt.

Grand Indian
In front of the Grand Hotel, the surroundings are a bit cafeteria-like, but the food and the service here are top-notch. Try the kadai (dry curry cooked in a wok) chicken teamed with kheema naan (bread stuffed with meat). Unlike a few other places around town, there’s normally an energetic buzz about the place. Make a night of it before or after brews and billiards at the bar at the Grand Hotel. From 3pm to 6pm the Grand Indian specialises in good-value samosas and tandoori sandwiches.
