摆渡修行Known as the best egg tarts in Kandy, the line for dine-in is always so long. Friends who don’t want to wait so long can directly line up for takeout and buy it in a few minutes! Egg tarts are 12 each. In order to take good pictures, we bought half a dozen haha. The filling is very smooth, the egg flavor is quite fragrant, and the sweetness is moderate. But its skin is different from ordinary egg tarts. It is a bit hard and a bit burnt. Because it was not hot when I ate it, I felt like I was eating a thicker version of Portuguese tarts. It should be more delicious if it is freshly baked! Croissants are 20, and it is said that there are 300 limited per day. I think its croissants are really delicious, with a strong butter flavor, crispy skin, and soft inside.

EvenThere is an observation deck on the mountain, overlooking the entire Kandy Lake. Going up further is this restaurant, which has a very good location. The semi-open restaurant allows you to enjoy the scenery while eating. It was very comfortable in the evening and the temperature was not too hot. The price of the dishes was OK and the taste was good. While eating, I was surprised to find that the building opposite was full of monkeys.

lulu0531After a few days in Lanka, my stomach couldn't stand the local food. When I arrived in Kandy, I looked for a Chinese restaurant, but it happened to be the Buddha Tooth Festival, and some restaurants were closed, so I asked the chartered driver to take us to this Chinese restaurant. The dishes were served quickly. The dishes were divided into large and small portions. We ordered large portions, which were not large, but they were enough for 6 adults and 2 children. The iron plate beef and Kung Pao chicken were not authentic but not bad. The vegetarian mapo tofu, shredded potatoes, and broccoli were also fried well. The driver, who had a small appetite, ordered two bowls of rice. The hot and sour soup looked like tomato and egg soup, and it tasted quite spicy, not the spicy pepper. Although it was not business hours, they still welcomed us warmly. Some service guys could also take orders in Chinese, and the feeling of being in a foreign country was particularly cordial.

pxy0705This is a top western restaurant in Bangkok, which was once ranked at the top of the Asian food rankings. The restaurant looks green from the outside, but it is a dark nightclub style inside. The pepper rabbit pasta here is delicious, and the cream truffle rice is also very good. Although the price is a bit expensive, it is definitely upscale.
