First Day In Sri Lanka Couldn't Have Been Better! 🇱🇰

- We finally made it to Sri Lanka for the first time and today was our first day exploring big city Colombo!
We kicked off the day with a super traditional Sri Lankan breakfast of rice and curry which was fantastic.
From there we headed directly across the road and tried an unknown street drink which was pretty interesting.
We then met Colombo's kindest man Shan who really showed us true Sri Lankan hospitality on our first day in this beautiful country. We shared some fresh buffalo curd and the local treacle which went down a right treat.
Sri Lanka is a island country so we thought it would only be right if we checked out a local beach. Off we went down the road, over the train tracks where we got our first taste of this paradise island.
Finally we ended our first day here with some more delicious local food that again was excellent.
I've gotta be honest we like Colombo way more than we thought we would, especially out of the city center where we're staying 🇱🇰

Super happy to be here mate genuinely
Tim
@@EllisWR you will have terrible time wait & see
@@user-yd6sj3pe4j I'm waiting patiently you buffoon
@@EllisWR u buffoon do what the f I tell you to do get the f out soon from our mother land .
I went to Sri Lanka in 2019 and loved it. I found it nicer than India as it was cleaner, more organised, less congested and better tourism services. People were friendlier too.
It's fantastic. India is great but we visited chill areas so we loved it.
Very happy here tho
how is Srilanka so clean. in this video dont see trash, plastic on the street. Amazing Srilanka
As a Sri Lankan who traveled a bit, yet Sri Lanka is really clean. But it always has been.
Sometimes you can see!! 😅
It is a small Island. We use less plastic. Lesss soda. Less grocery unwanted plastic packaging. No plastic coated ( forever chemical plastic coated paper ) packaging. So we kave less accumulated rubbish. So it is easy to maintain cleanliness in anywhere in clouding the city. It is not a high consummaric country. We have lot of recycled vehicles . Lot of electronic stuffs etc.
Shan is a display slice cut of Sri Lankan hospitality and kindness...
He is the man we should all be
Bro im not proud to admit this but at 16 I was homeless in Scotland. A Sri Lankan lady who owned a b&b in Dundee took me in and gave me a room for weeks. Im sad to say I repaid her by stealing her television and was promptly arrested. She will be very old now but i never forgave myself for it. Thats how lovely Sri Lankan people are.
Takes a big man to come clean about things like that. They are lovely people for sure. Wish you nothing but the best mate
Try to find her and ask for forgiveness.As a Sri Lankan I am sure she will difinetly forgive you happily. you can clear your mind and can be live with peace of mind.
😊find her . give some flowers 🌹 make her happy
You should find her again. She has forgiven you 100% by now, trust me. She’ll probably serve you tea and biscuits and give you some advice too 😊
So amazing you have shared this 🙏🏻 life can be hard and make us do things we wouldn’t usually do
Sri Lankan food is one of our favorites. Looking forward to visiting next year. Great contrast with your Indian and Pakistani videos.
We're very much enjoying it. Actually finding it criminally underrated in the world. Have an amazing time when you visit!
Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 is definitely on the bucket list and a visit to Shan’s curd shop ! Love from 🇵🇰
Super! You should visit you would love it 🙏 best wishes
actually that guy (shaun) who gave you the fruits gift, he was trying to say "when you all coming to srilanka for a visits, srilankans should respect you all" not the other way around. but its good you guys took it as positive.
" I don't care about money. Nice life is meet nice people" what a man!!.
That's exactly how we live aswell. Shan was a joy to meet 🙏
Shan is such a interesting person. He is one of those people you come across and restores faith in humanity.
Yeah he's a genuine kind man. Interesting character aswell!!
Enjoy Sri Lanka Ellis ... Me & Sue got married their in 1996 ! Beautiful place and wonderful people. Lots to do and see. All the best :):)
Lovely stuff Andy!! What a beautiful place for it!
Andy & sue ♥️
13:20 it's kurakkan (finger millet) porridge. Normally we eat a piece of jaggery while drinking it, that's probably why the seller is showing the jaggery box. Sadly he looks like he is afraid to spit out a single english word in case it's wrong(like me😅)
White one is garlic porridge.
Orange one is sago.
The green one is like a herbal rice porridge we call it "kola kanda" basically mean "green porridge"
Super interesting thanks for explaining. He was a nice guy though haha
Think its Ragi millet drink
@@vina4385 ragi millet = finger millet
Two names... one thing.
Shan is an amazing person genuine and helpful man.
Shan was genuinely a good hearted man. Really nice guy 🙏
The rainy season is going to start. It is a time when people are very busy because the Sinhala New Year is approaching. There are many places like Colombo Museum, Gangarama Temple Red Mosque
, Kochchikade Church Goal Face, Freedom Square. There are many foods to try kottu, cheese kottu, rice and curry, hoppers, and string hoppers, king coconut, falooda, There are many places like Nuwara Eliya, Badulla, Galle. Hope to meet you in Colombo. Enjoy your tour guys. Love from Sri Lanka❤
Thanks so much! We love the food here it's fantastic.
Have an amazing day
Yey, Ellis and Alicia, your first taste of Sri Lanka. Enjoy this wonderful island, its spicy food and wonderful people. I'm jealous. The beaches are lovely but watch out for sea urchins.
It's so lovely Carol don't know why we didn't come sooner! Yeah I hate urchins will be careful!!
Is there any place else nicer than Sri Lanka? What a complete package... 😍
Sri Lanka goes right into our favourite country list with Thailand, there's nothing I can complain about!
Sri lankans are nice people 🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰
So kind
@@EllisWR exactly broo
@@EllisWR if we wants we can be ugly as well of course we are Tamils Put Tigers flag as well
If you put only your dirty flag we never ever wants see your f face again .
He's sooo nice!! The store owner!😊 ❤
He's a legend!!
This shop owner seems like , he is so kind and sweet heart. Enjoy guys 👍
He's a legend. Thanks for watching 🙏
Wowzers! So happy to see the start of this series! Woo Hoo! I get to travel vicariously through you guys and I fvcking love it!!! The first noise I heard though was that's damn Uwu bird (Asian Koel) 😂😂😂 That was the one that woke me up every morning from 3.30am to 4.30am in Bangkok!
People look so friendly and welcoming and the food looks fantastic!!! I can't believe how chill it is for the capital city! Did you guys venture into the city centre at all whilst there?
There's a Sri Lankan restaurant near my daughters in Perth, I'm gonna have to check that out soon as I've never even tried Sri Lankan once but I've always liked the looks of it!
Ahaha yeah it's your mate the bird! Outside our window everyday!!! Honestly our area was that nice we just stayed there I hear the center is busy and scammy! Go try it man see how it is!
Dont forget to try egg hopper for breakfast . Dont worry about tap water in Sri Lanka. It is usually clean enough to drink ..as you loved Tamil Nadu , Sri Lanka will really appeal to you..
Hope you are going to the hills and the coast in the south . Its so beautiful outside Columbo.remember to do the amazingly scenic train journey from Kandy to Ella/Badulla in the central highlands.
Cheers mate! Working our way through all the food everytime we see something new. Similar to Tamil Nadu but sooooo chill. We've drunk so many dodgy drinks and no problems so all good 🙏
Why you say similar to Tamil Nadu. Not at all. I have been Tamil Nadu n it’s dirty n crowded. Colombo not like Tamil Nadu .
@@dinijay3299 lick my shaft and smell the brown you numbnut .
Your videos are far better than many other bloggers’ from UK. Really down to earth with fine details of each move. It’s a shame you don’t have as much following. I am sure one day you will be more famous than Donald trump 🎉
They are very kind words thanks so much we really appreciate that 🙏 I'm glad you enjoy we just film whatever makes us happy we're not doing stuff for the views. Have an amazing day 🙏
Stumbled upon this video accidentally and I’m loving every bit of it. You two are super chill and got such an amazing vibe. Hoping you’ll have a great Sri Lankan series and enjoy every bit of it. Wishing you both for the growth of the channel too. Can’t wait to see the next video ❤️
Lots of love from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
Hey thanks so much for the kind words we really appreciate that. In all honesty we are loving Sri Lanka and can't wait to share the videos! Hope people enjoy them! Please share if you can 🙏🇱🇰 have an amazing day
Hi Elis & Alisha, Sri Lanka here we go.... 1st Sri Lanka series video seem very calm except hot weather hehehehe. Surprised, Colombo city so clean. Waiting for your next Sri Lanka Videos. Have a great day.
Thanks so much! It's an amazing country
That walk at the beginning with the birds singing. Man I have been waiting for summer, to drink a cup of coffee and sitting in my local park listening to those birds. Can't wait, currently in London its cold, miserable and rainy, dull weather 😔
Was so nice to wander this area and in morning sit by the window with the birds and squirrels etc. Cheers for watching have a top day!
Thank you for sharing your vlog. I'm from Colombo but had to move 🦘 due to a financial crisis and now live alone. Your videos make me happy and sometimes bring me to tears. I would appreciate it, if you visit the northern suburbs of Colombo as there are some must-see places such as Kochikade St. Anthony's church, Ponnambalavaneswaram Sivan Kovil (Hindu Temple), Elakanda Fish Market, and Crow Island Beach.❤❤
Thanks so much! We will have to visit at some point 🙏❤️
Looks like your two weeks ahead of us! Keen to explore Sri Lanka. Great video!
Oreet guys we're at the back end of our trip here now, been bloody lovely. Have a quality time all the best 🙏

Man, you're in for a great time! I just came back from there myself. Too bad we missed crossing paths
I commented on your last video you manc dosser. Where are you at now?
I'm genuinely very impressed with Sri Lanka

Thanks so much. Occasionally we give to kind people, not on camera though we're not interested in donating for youtube views 🙏
Alisha looks adorable with her hair up. Awesome 1st day. I enjoyed the view without having to sweat my rear end off. lol
Thanks so much! Yeah ahah it's soooooo hot
Ayyy hypeee long awaited 🔥🔥🔥
So happy to be here
Yes it was a kind porridge, know as “Kanji” in Sri Lanka and some South Indian areas. It is made with some millet powder (like Ragi /pearl millets) cooked and fermented and mixed with milk or curd and jaggery. That itself can be taken as breakfast.
Ahhh thanks for explaining!!
Finally u came to Sri Lanka. I told u u would love it here! Enjoy 🎉
So happy to be here it's lovely!!

The drinks you were inquiring about around. 11.50 time are kola kanda, like congee/Porridge made with herbs or grains. The first one is Sago. middle one is Millet. Green one with herbs or leaf.third one /white Garlic. He offered jaggery to go with the millet porridge as that how it should be taken.
Thanks for the info!!

The porridge you had was finger millet porridge. The one next to that was Sago porridge
Appreciate that thankyou!
Sago is good during hot climate. It has a cooling effect on body.
Welcome to SriLanka 🇱🇰 ❤
Hope you come downsouth. There you can enjoy many different experiences. Be safe and enjoy guys ❤❤
Where can we visit that is relaxed without any foreign tourists? We just like to explore and meet chill people, eat local food etc etc
For that, you have to somewhere interior or other end like northern or eastern srilanka... give a try, it maybe a unique experience for sure.
@@kubejeeva9904 I hope you enjoy the videos. We're having such a good time exploring the countrysides! Beautiful country 🇱🇰🙏

Welcome to Sri Lanka, Enjoy & be safe
Thanks!!
Enjoy Sri Lanka...been there ❤
Greetings from Copenhagen Denmark.
Thanks for watching!!
What you drank is called kurakkan drink. Its an one of the best nutritious drink the old people used to drink daily. The past giants were made by drinking and eating kurakkan 😊
Amazing!!
this is gonna be good ellissss
Such a nice place aha
I heard Asian koel singing at the beginning of the video. There are many birds like this in Thailand. Never knew there was such a bird in Sri Lanka...❤️
Yes the same one! Reminds us of Thailand ❤️
Sri Lankan new year is coming soon in April. Koel sings during that season usually. 😍
It remind us a sinhala tamil new year😍
Koel is not a native bird in Sri Lanka although we have so many native birds. It comes to SL around April.
Shan is a legend . What a beautiful soul he is....❤
Literally such a nice man
Thank you for coming srilanka 🇱🇰 🇱🇰
Strange street drink is finger millet porridge basically. Can eat with jaggery. Green ones are made with herbs.
Appreciate it we will have to try them all!
The drink you had on the pavement just after your breakfast is called " Kurakkan Kanda " which is is a very wholesome one made out of "Finger millet" very low in sugar and recommended for `high blood sugar " patients .
The bird you hear at the beginning is called Koha in sri lanka (asian koel in english). They start singing around sri lankan new years (april) which make the festivities kinda special like they are announcing the upcoming new year. But 2 minutes ago I found that in Singapore they start singing around december which is also close to their new year. This bird is onto something!
Oooo how interesting. In Thailand they sing everyday and always live outside your bedroom window
Hi, first of all, thank you for visiting my country. The first meal you two had was a curry with coconut sambal and dal. You said you don't know it, but it's an fired eggplant curry . and the two of you drank a drink, the Sinhala name of the drink was Kurakkan Porridge. English name is finger millet porridge. It is very healthy for the body ❤
I appreciate all the info very much! The food here is so good
down to earth people of Sri Lanka
Such lovely people aye
12:33 in the first pot it was Sago porridge second one what you drank was red millet/ Finger millet porridge , In the third one it waa made with some green medicinal plants like curry leaves, Gotu kola/ medicinal herb commonly known as Asiatic pennywort, Balloon vine.. etc grind them add water, coconut milk and rice and sugar some salt..thats it..
Thankyou so much!
Well if you're still in SL don't forget to visit Jaffna and kandy. And here's some recommendations to try
Egg hoppers,string hoppers, polos (jackfruit curry), kottu ( Similar to kothu parotta in TN, ripped up bread /Paratha fried in veggies and curry and meat),Puttu /pittu,Crab curry, biryani or as in sinhala buriyani, wood apple juice, king coconuts, srilankan tea,chilli parotta /Paratha,paal sothi,payasam, Jaffna koozh. There many more to SL food but these are some. Do try them if you can
Really appreciate it thanks! Will visit Jaffna next!
sri lankan living in NZ here..i miss those dosa n short eats every day man..not easy to find here..and kottu! dam
Making me want to get on a plane ❤
Here's a translation of what he said about buffalo curd: Cow's milk is viewed as "heaty" according to Ayurvedic medicine. This means that consuming cow's milk increases internal heat in your body. In contrast, buffalo milk has a cooling effect on your system. In Ayurvedic terms, the concepts of "heat" and "cool" are not related to the actual temperature of the food or drink, but rather the impact they have on your body. Most aches and pains are a result of excessive heat in your body. That's why in Sri Lanka people consume food that cools your body.
Thanks for explaining!
What you drank after breakfast is a breakfast itself. Finger millet porridge. The orange one is sago porridge - all cooked with coconut milk
They are pretty good!!
Have a wonderful time both. Xx 🇹🇭 🇯🇪
Thanks so much have a top day 🙏🙏
Ellis at 13:51 minutes, I think the drink is a porridge made from “Finger Millet” very rich in calcium and fiber commonly consumed in India and Sri Lanka. Usually consumed like a porridge with jaggery ( sugarcane cubes) or with onions and chili to bite along.
Oooo thanks for explaining
Omg! I thought Ellis had lost his mullet on the way to the beach. 😂 Have fun in Sri Lanka xx
Ahah it fell off somewhere we had to go find it later!!
@@EllisWR 🤣🤣🤣
Welcome to Sri Lanka!!
Thanks so much!!
Beautiful country, love the beach and the nice folks..good spicy food just like Tamil Nadu ! Must try Kothu roti! Enjoy!😀
Yes similar! Will try!!!
Not similar to Tamil Nadu at all!!
@@dinijay3299 The food is very similar come on ahah...
As I was watching the video, I realised you are from England. It's great to see you are exploring my country..
We are super happy to be here
Great 👍 to see you are enjoying time in Sri Lanka. It's very hot there these days, tho. Where are you living in the UK?
If you're visiting the Southern part of India, make sure to visit Kerala. There's a Hindu temple festival in Kerala called Thrissur Pooram, held on April 18th and April 17th in Thrissur city. This festival features 50 elephants and music. There are plenty of programs during this event. If you go there, you'll surely witness one of the most amazing festivals in the world. You can find more information about it online.
Thanks for the info!!

Ahah I've never seen one up here in Lancashire! When coming home we might have to get some. Or ask someone to cook us sri Lankan food!!
@@EllisWR don’t know about Lancashire but there’s plenty of srilankan restaurants in London. And you’re always welcome to our place for homemade srilankan food ❤️
@@kaykay8903 Yeah we keep meeting people with family in London. Genuinely become one of our top cuisines it's highly underrated.
@@EllisWR there’s so many food places for you to try in Colombo. I wish I booked my flight earlier. I’ll be in Colombo mid May.
Very interesting .
Warmly welcome to Srilanka 🇱🇰
Thankyou very much
Wellcome to srilanka ❤ enjoy 🎉
Thanks so much!!
Those thick smoothie like drinks you had are porridge. The left most one was sago and probably sweeter tasting. The one you had was finger millet. Third one was garlic and the green one was herbs.
Super interesting
Its a beautiful country, spent 3 years of my childhood there. Cambridge Terrace, Colombo.
Beautiful isn't it!!
Welcome to Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 mate👊🏾
Thanks!!Happy to be here 🙏
@@EllisWR I have some recommendations for you to visit: check out Mirissa in the south for amazing coastlines with coconut trees 🌴, Ella in the center for mountains views and chill vibes (tourist hub)⛰️, Trincomalee in the east for beautiful beaches (great for surfing) 🏝️🏄, and Jaffna in the north for some Tamil culture and unique food 🦀🍤🥘. Enjoy your visit 🙌🏾
Narang, who gave you the person at the milk shop. You have to cut it and squeeze out the juice, put sugar, salt (a little), pepper (very little) and add water to it and mix it. A very tasty drink you will love it.. ❤
It's so delicious we've been drinking every day!!
@@EllisWR it's okay guys and enjoy this food too Kottu, hoppers, string hoppers, coconut roti.. and if you go to Aluthkade, you will find a lot of foods. have fun enjoy your trip staysafe..
13:01 herbal porridge every Srilankan interested to take breakfast.
Very affordable price same time high nutrition. Mostly this stalls are located to near hospital and schools,
Oooo thanks for the info!
Thannk you comming sri lanka😊
Thanks for having us!
I think you guys should get an umbrella, too. For hot sun🌞 and the rain 🌧 perhaps useful for protect from stray dog 🐕 from harming you.
amazing idea it is sooo hot, lets do it thai style!
❤Sri-Lanka is very soupper ❤ frome Europe
Beautiful country!
I can hear the Thai birds ❤
33:27 you can make lemon drinks with them ..water some sugar pinch of salt and that lemon as much as you want
We've been making everyday so good
Red Ragi(millets) drink. Summer special
Oooo super
Thanks for your comments about my country ❤❤❤
❤️
What a legend is Shan 🫡 ❤ lovely video.. enjoying every bit of it.. travel safe 👍👍
Such a good kind hearted man 🙏 have an amazing day
Beef is cold, milk is hot, curd is cold that's why people like this man! 😂😂😅
Ahah
At the 11:30 mark in the RUclips video, you'll see a variety of porridges showcased from left to right.
The first one, called "Saw Kadha or Saw Kanji" is a Sago Porridge featuring sago, kithul (Caryota urens) or coconut jaggery syrup, coconut milk, and spices.
Following that is "Kurakkan Kadha," or Finger Millet porridge (the one you've purchased), primarily made with finger millet, coconut milk, and coconut jaggery syrup.
Next in line is the flavorful "Garlic Porridge," containing garlic, rice, coconut milk, and more.
Unfortunately, the "Kola Kadha" wasn't available during filming. This traditional herbal gruel is typically prepared with rice, coconut milk, and the fresh juice of medicinally valued leafy greens, with the taste varying based on the leaves used. It's a common practice among Sri Lankans to consume this early in the morning on an empty stomach.
I very much appreciate all this information!! Will have to try whenever we see them!! Thanks
Hope you guys enjoy!@@EllisWR
Keep safe God bless you guys 🇵🇭
God bless you too 🙏🙏🙏
