  • While staying with Ravi during my ankle injury recovery, his wife Masha cooked me a special dinner full of variety and flavour.
    Many of the ingredients, such as the coconuts and the Gotu Kola leaves were grown in Ravi's garden. Other locals ingredients were obtained during our visit to the local supermarket.
    Many of these ingredients I'd never even heard of before. Trying something local and for the first time is always an amazing experience when traveling.
    Ravi said that this meal would be better than anything I could get in a restaurant, as restaurants always have to consider their profit and never use the very best ingredients for every part of the dish. What I got was the very best and I loved it.

    Proud to be a Srilankan.
    I’m a Srilankan tamil lives in UK. And been to 22 countries for my work purposes - means ate and drink with locals.
    Spent my life with sinhalish and Muslims when I was in kandy for my higher studies. Unforgettable friends and hospitality. No words can’t reflect my previous honeymoons. But your videos does.
    I twisted my feet exactly where you twisted. ( in kandy railway tracks) Same again here once in Glasgow but people just called the ambulance and left ( I’m still tankful ) but No one gave me any first aids like my nationals.
    One of our Srilankan touched and massaged your feet on that spot and said ( நம்ம நாட்டுக்கு வந்தவன நாமதான் பாக்கணும் )
    Which means- whoever comes to our country we must to look after them.

    After watching a lot of your videos in Sri Lanka, I realized that we have some same words in Indonesia. Like sambol, it's like a side dish to flavor up the food. We have sambal, made of chilli, shallots, garlic, etc to spice up our food.
    And then they have jambu (you've tried the spicy one from the seasoned fruits merchant after you visited the red mosque) , we called it jambu air, in Wikipedia they called watery rose apple.
    In Indonesia jambu means guava, but there are lot of kind of jambu. "Jambu air" is usually very sweet, crunchy, with lots of water in it!

    Gosh, this actually gave me goosebumps! The Gotu Kola Sambol looks luscious! I was here after seeing your accident video and in that I thought you skipped the authentic meal prep due to bad weather. However, Dale, you are indeed a lucky fella, cuz that's authentic Sri Lankan cousin, cooked in clay pots with all local ingredients and dished out with much love. And I must say, you're eating like a PRO! Hats off to Ravi, Masha and their lovely family who committed their time and effort to make a big difference and leaving you with wonderful set of memories despite the tragic accident.

    Dear, in south asia, mainly countries like India, Srilanka and Pakistan people usually use their hands to eat and it's part of their culture. When using hands brain gets the "enough" signal so easily when we full. And using cutlery used by someone else may not be clean at shops. Trust your own hands, after washing well you know they're clean. Nice video. Keep it up 💪
