Dining

A breath of night breeze drifts in. The candles flicker in protest and cast a fleeting glow on the cut-glass crystal. Lovingly prepared culinary masterpieces beg your appraisal. Fine dining at The Apsara is indeed a princely affair. With commanding views by day of the Lion’s Rock at Sigiriya, restaurants that offer such a stately atmosphere and variety of gourmet fare, is uncommon in the vicinity.

Prefer things less grand? The ‘Sulang’ will keep you replete all day long with light bites and refreshing drinks. For a stronger mix, the Graffiti Bar awaits, well stocked with an array of liquid treasures to impress the most discerning connoisseur – who may in fact, opt to dine in our splendid wine cellar itself.

Go traditional, experience an authentic Sri Lankan ‘harvesting’ feast on a ‘Kamatha’ or threshing ground. You can of course, dine anywhere you wish: choose your spot, tell us when, what and how – and it’s yours.
