Very nice experience and lovely ladies!

It was a small place in the middle of Kandy, but somehow calm and quiet😊

The ladies working there are very friendly and try to explain what ingredients they use even tho some of them do not know English!

The food is cheap and freshly made - highly recommended😊

Local style food market

Dine with the locals at this women-run open food market. About 10 individual stalls selling all veg and mostly vegan dishes, beyond the usual Sri Lankan classics. Not sure about the negative reviews here, the site was clean and food was being prepared fresh. It’s a very busy place, so the turnover of food is quick. No flies in sight.

Pros: Local, Authentic , Off the tourist trail

Very local place

Locals will eat here so don't expect the most fancy restaurant. The people were incredibly nice and I had lovely vegan foods to choose from for a cheap price

Should be one star but Happy Cow only let's a minimum of two

Unhygienic that's all you can say. Food looks weird and several flies

If you like your vegan food with flies

Really disappointed in this place! It’s basically a market style venue where each vendor sells different vegetarian food. We went all the way there as it’s a little out of the way of the main town only to find there’s hardly any seating and the food is left out on display and covered with flies. No attempt to even try and avert the flies. Really off putting. We left. But the place has good trip advisor reviews so maybe check there and judge for yourself?
