- Back in Sri Lanka and this time starting off the trip in Colombo with a Sri Lankan specialty called Cheese Kottu.
I took a small bus from CMB airport to Colombo Fort that cost only 200 LKR and took 1 hour 30 minutes.
From the bus station I walked to my hotel in the Colombo Fort area. The hotel, C1, was basic but clean and comfortable with friendly staff.
During the walk to the hotel I flexed my bargaining skills again at Pettah Market to buy a new baseball cap and picked up some milk sweets from Bombay Sweets.
It was the hotel receptionist that told me the best place to eat nearby was Pillawoos Hotel on Chatham Street and that Cheese Kottu is the most delicious thing on the menu. His recommendation was a good one.

you came back 😃😃
Welcome again machan
You look a like d enemy of movie of twelight saga.lol. .. Peace bro
What the hell you make lowest price.i think d cap is 3 dollars. Is d lowest price .lol.
"Ayubowan" is NOT "Good morning". Ayubowan is basically "May you live long" and you can use that word anytime anywhere when you meet someone. It is basically a well-wishing.
Bus man told me wrong 😕
Don't worry he wish u the best U will do Vlogs more than 🤭💯 years We will also follow u forever Long life ❤️🙏 Dale bus conductors wish will come true All the best 😍🤩🤩😍🤣😂🤭🤭🤭
@@Dale_Philip Yeah I guess he really didn't know how to explain you that. so he just agreed with you. :D
Well actully ayubowan means kind of welcome!!!!
"Ayubowan" is like "aloha" in Hawaii. You can tell it when you meet a person and when you're parting.
Being an Indian i find sri lanka a far better place. Less population density, no rush yet simple lifestyle. I would love if india also were like this☺️
Thank u 😊
I love India. Amazing foods you can literally eat whole year and still there'll be new dishes 😍😍❤️
Yeah I too feel that sri Lanka is less populated and clean.. People there live simple lifestyle.. But our Indian food is really great Brother. 🇮🇳
India is also a really Wounderful country 🖤
@@nausheensiddiqui8745 true dat 💯. Indian food are da best 🤤 🇱🇰 .

Well, thank you a lot for that comment. You are awesome.
@@alexindustries1991 No problem bro 👍🏽🙏🏽
@bye girl better we are ugly so we dont attract men who look for just sex like u 😄
@@BtwinUnW Maybe he likes Thai ladyboys..
It's a gem, no doubt! But "hidden"? Maybe 15-20 years ago. Now there are backpackers everywhere. I loved Sri Lanka, really loved it but hidden it is not.
Dont worry buddy. there are not dolphins in the dolphin kottu. It s just a name. The different is rotti slices shape like dolphin. 😉
Actually dolphin is a type of fish, not the mammal called dolphin!!!!
Actually the name should be "Dolpin" according to my knowledge. Dunno why most of them use Dolphin instead of "Dolpin"
Dolphin kottu = pan kottu
@@Ben47x1 nope
The name Dolphin Kottu was invented during the days of final war in Srilanka. Srilankan law and order enforced kottu stalls not to make noice in night time as during those days people were frightened and the sound of koththu blowing may end up creating a scary situation. So, Kottu stalls were forced to create a new way to keep their business running and that's how they recreated the kottu with Pan. Instead of making Kottu in kottu trays, large pans were used to make Kottu. So, when the Kottu master throws the kottu in air while preparing it in the pan, it looks like a "dolphin jumping out of ocean and falling back in to it." Just remind the moment when the person who prepares Kottu, throwing it in the air from Pan. That's how the name was created. Pillawoos Hotel became the first to create Dolphine Kottu during 2009. Now even after the war, we still love Dolphin Kottus and keep making them. Kottu found a new dimension through a pressure situation.
Bro keep the vlogs coming 👍 weekly uploads are just not enough 😂
Sir Lanka Is best country i like.. From Indonesia....
Why do you like sri lanka 🇱🇰 ?
My friend from England married an Indonesian and they love Indonesia-a paradise
@@Kamal-ju6qx yes why not
@@vijayafernando1 have fun here..😄😄
Thank you so much for your love. We also love Indonesia. So much love from Sri-lanka. 💝💗💖
That cap was wayy cheaper than they sell to us 'locals'...your are damn good at bargaining man..
And he's very cheap too
@@BosoxPatsfan603 lol he’s not rich. Why should he pay more for something very cheap
@@WELLZY_ who the hell said he's rich? And it's not like he's broke either he probably has a hell of a lot more money than a hundred people in that town combined
@@BosoxPatsfan603 You called him very cheap. Why should he pay more just because he is a white guy? If a local can bargain without a problem so should he. He’s literally travelling these beautiful countries and promoting tourism... I’ve seen him tip many people
@@WELLZY_ are you his boyfriend or his wife or something? Why do you care so much? He is very cheap always trying to knock the price down and stuff how do you think those people make their money? They sure as hell aren't going to make money off the locals because they can barely afford this stuff.

I'm Sri Lankan. Dale, you are smart. you know how to deal with Sri Lanka people.
Yeah. He obviously knows his way around people..
Indeed he does. A skill well needed.
I liked the way you deal with those Salesmen. You have a clear knowledge about how to deal with them.🙊🙌
I learn a lot of him
Common man ,you like a real local man.Welldone great deal with bargain 😀
Thank you 😎👍
Yeah.same my mom😅😅😅 he did it😍 but my mom was there i know she will buy it 300lkr😅😂❤️

Kiski saali meri ya teri ya uski?
Actually there are so many places to travel in SriLanka and the value of our country is still the pearl on the Indian Ocean but unfortunately our rulers will never understand he value of this precious island... Thankyou for visiting SriLanka like this and creating positivity about SriLanka and supporting us SriLankans to understand the value of our country...!!
කමක් නෑ වරද්දගෙන හරි ලනකාවේ කොල්ලෙක් වගේ කෑව.. Because of that respect ❤️💯
Been to SL 3-4 times too and had Dolphin kottu several times. They call it Dolphin kottu because of the size of the kottu. Sri Lankans don't eat Dolphins lmao
😅😅😅we don't eat dolphins
It’s called dolphin because they make it in a wet sauce ...
We never eat dolphins... You are right!
Yeahhh rofl
Yeah we don't 😉
Born in Puerto Rico, we learn an islander's way barter. You are just like us in the Caribbean: Not afraid to talk straight with no disrespect. I've noticed your behaviour in your Sri Lanka videos and you come across very comfortable in your attitude to the entire way of doing business there. You don't do the tourist bow to pressure.
No bullox, mate.
My Russian acquaintances are even more direct. The Scottish and the Irish have that in common with us Caribbeans.
I love these videos! Thanks for the exposure.
Thanks mate. For anything that I want to buy I try to learn the correct local price beforehand so that I can comfortably barter when I'm quoted a higher price. There have still been times in my videos that I've been overcharged but I've still done far better than 99% of western tourists I reckon.
Kottu = delicious comfort food Sri Lankan style. ❤️🇱🇰👍

Appreciate it (Y)
Lol
Thank you for believing in our Country !
Not in politics but in people.
People in Sri lanka are more polite than this american
What American you crackhead
Why so few women in the streets? I want to visit but I need to feel safe.
@@Candyprincess971 DON'T be put off!! Sri Lanka is very safe for females travelling. Just be sensible and recognise this is a different culture and act accordingly. Don't miss out on this wonderful country because of incorrect perceptions. You will be safe and you will experience a stunning country and culture. Don't stick to the south beaches either! Get up to the relatively untouched north.
Kandy, is a great town too. Just do it...Why stay at home worrying what might happen?
I'm not Sri Lankan, nor do I work for the Sri Lankan Tourist board. I'm English and thoroughly recommend a trip to SRI LANKA.
Woow...
sri lanka is amazing...

Thanks bro....we appreciate Korea too🙂
Not bts (pinnayo)

Finally a worthy comment
Dr strange
So strange
7:00 bus horns are the biggest problem in our country... Sorry for that...
I don't know why the driver had to press the horn so long. Everyone has to suffer because of his impatience.
@@Dale_Philip yes...
They think people love that horn. But it's really not true... They don't know the value of silence...
@@Dale_Philip Sri Lanka's regulations limit vehicle horns up to 105db@2m. It was not practically implemented until very resent. Now all add-on horns were forced to remove, leaving the originals. If it continues, city will be much beautiful!
@@Harindra000 absolutely my friend. Not only the city but the whole country would b liveable
Yeah.i feel bad for them😑😓
Actually some of these small clothing stores don't sell fakes just factory rejects since most of these brands like under armour and Addias actually manufacturer some clothing items here
Thanks for visiting my country in this condition. We love you. 😍
Thank you Dale for protecting Scotland's excellent reputation abroad. You are a great ambassador for us.
Dale dolphin kothu is not the actual meat of the dolphin mate it's how they make it.
Yes it makes in pool of curry and pop up roti pieces from pool like dolphins ..
Thats why its called dolphin kottu..
I know I know I was making a joke 🤣
It's made out of paratha instead of regular roti.
@@priyanbuddika8730 well explained Priyan 👍
@@Dale_Philip same incident happened to my grandfather he got shocked 😂🤣😂 seeing dolphin kottu in the menu Very funny 😁😄
I enjoy your no frill, honest, raw, no sugar coating narrative. Power on!
I've only seen two videos of yours, but I already like the way you talk to people and walk in stores/restaurants and talk with the employes, like you own the place, while still beeing super friendly to everyone.
Thank you Dale..❤❤ love from Sri Lanka🙏🌺
Hi Dale, How nice of you to be back in SL in such a crucial time for the country. Thank you for doing this when it is needed most. Love from SL
My pleasure 😎👍
Hey man I am a Sri Lankan.. All these salesman thinks that foreigners got money with them and trying to sell something Cheap for a greater price 😂😂😂😂😂
i was so surprised when you bargain and when you said "aayubowan"... how to say... "aayubowan" is like our country's tradition to greet others with love and respect. when you said it, i felt really heart melted.
Ha ha ..Your bargaining skills are better than us , Sri Lankans :)
Thank you for not losing hope in us and coming back.
Hello Mr! I am a Srilankan but you have been to lots of places that I have not been lol
Keep posting love to watch
Dale, thank you very much for telling to world about my country. Come back again. God bless you.
Dale, the kottu menu which read as dolphin is actually not dolphin meat.
It's chicken mixed kottu made with "parata roti". As the texture is thicker they have named it "dolphin".
Abosolutely not related to the beautiful dolphin found in the ocean.
All the best!
I was there from 23rd June to 6th July. It was amazing. I do hope the travelling crowd returns because we went from Colombo to Jaffna, Habarana, Anuradhapura, Sigiriya, Kandy, Nuwara Eliya then Negombo. I will return again. Sri Lanka is beautiful and so are its people.

Thanks for your nice videos to uplift our country after the disaster we met just a couple of months ago. We Sri Lankan are the most hospitable and peace loving in the south Asian region. If you still stay here never dip your kottu in the gravy. Just pour the gravy on the kottu and taste it. Wish you had a great time here.
Thanks again for the nice videos...
❤️🇱🇰👍
Thank you Dale. U r a true Sri Lanka ambassador 🙏👍👍🙏
Lol I like how you bargain. They double the price for foreigners. The conductor tought you wrong 'ayubowan' means live long. Good morning is 'suba udesanak' thanks for coming back to Sri Lanka Dale ♡♡♡♡♡♡
Yes I wish he didn't teach me wrong. Too late to edit video. 😅
Damn man savage bargaining don't think that even the locals dive that much of a hard bargain 😂! love it!
Thank you. Bargaining is fun. :)
Even I will not be able buy that cap for Rs 400/= as a sri lankan. The seller will never reduse his price less than 500.
@@shemesal9823 try harder 😆
@@Dale_Philip nooooo. They are very bad.

great vlog buddy
thank you for showing us off the beautiful sri lanka 👌🏼
My pleasure 😊
Hei man... u got your price huh finally... even we cannot deal with them the way you had.

I think it's a fair price. They are buying them wholesale much cheaper than that.

Thanks I will keep coming back 😎
💯
Love your vlogs man. Keep up the good work
Nice Video Dale Philip! Keep It Up I Will Always Support You!
Your channel is great. Your bargaining skills are par excellent. You teach others how to bargain by not letting yourself get ripped off. Not all of us have lots of extra money to spend when travelling, and it helps to know when to walk away instead. Keep it up!
Thank you. Yes, there's some people that leave me angry comments. They think that every foreigner travelling to Asia is on a charity mission with unlimited money to spread around to every local they come in contact with. I rather choose someone that did something extra nice for me to pay extra to. At markets there's no fixed price so bargaining is standard anyway.
Another great video! Would love to try the Cheese Kottu!! It looks great!! Btw I love seeing the locals reaction when you speak in their language!! Their reactions are soo cute and they give you a great big smile!!!! I would love to visit Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 from your vlogs it looks like a great country and they all look nice and friendly!!

Dale make sure you try the elephant house cream soda this time! Also try go to "the station restaurant and bar!"
I will try to remember. Those fancy bars all play music and that will get my video kicked off RUclips for copyright.
Dale Philip oh fair enough, definitely try the cream soda though, don't forget!!
Yep... Definetly try the Cream soda( elephant house )... But don't buy the low sugar content one... Atleast try medium sugar one!!!!
@@Dale_Philip another suggestion would be ginger beer of elephant house if you haven't tried it before. and no its not a alcoholic beverage :)
