So here’s a dating tip for anyone trying to make a good impression on a prospective girlfriend/casual sex partner in Colombo. Take her to Bungalow, awesome food; somewhat the same price of Commons and the food (which has an Italian angle) is bloody excellent. Not to mention they have coffee and arrack ice cream, wonder whether they use Old Reserve? All in all I was very impressed with this restaurant; it doesn’t feel like you’re in Colombo at all and provides an excellent atmosphere for getting to know someone. The only thing I wish they had is a host, to greet you, and get you a table, but then service is an issue in Sri Lanka as a whole. Oh yeah and if you sit outside watch for the jumping spiders falling off the trees and into your beer, at least the poor bugger died happy. BTW…Use this info with care, don’t take the girl unless you really like her/shes bloody attractive..help preserve the quiet ambiance of this place
