Sri Lanka is known for its kottu - if you haven't had it, they say, you haven't really experienced our food. It's made from diced godhamba rotti and meat/vegetables. Cheese kottu is a relatively new invention and it's now a very popular order.

Made from wheat roti and  spiced vegetables, egg, or meat, and various spices, kottu roti forms a tasty dinner meal .  Made on a heated iron flat pan, kothu is chopped and mixed using two blunt metal blades, which creates a very distinctive sound that can be  heard  in all  roadside restaurants in Sri Lanka. From being a cheap, takeaway meal for the lower classes, it has become a favorite mid night snack of night clubbers and party goers in Sri Lanka.


We've put together a list of our favourite spots in Kandy for cheese, chicken kottu after visiting a bunch on popular recommendation. We tried to cover variety - different kinds of cheese, different kinds of preparations. 

  1. Sinhala Jathika Hotel
  2. The Muslim Hotel
  3. Sri Ramya Hotel
