Only a very few of us can truly relate to this genre of music. This was a free gig that was open to anyone and everyone. Given that there were 2 other events happening in Colombo and Mount Lavinia, we ended up having this hardcore fans who enjoyed the fraternity on a Saturday evening. The only venue the rock community can get these days. But seems like this would be the last few concerts that we get to do here. The government is renovating the place, so they say. Till then we need to find another location.
Beira lake is situated just 1km away from the heart of Colombo. It has been one of the top tourist destinations in the commercial capital, Colombo as Gangarama Temple is located just next to Beira lake. I really recommend this place for you who are visiting Sri Lanka. Other than the religious background, it's a great place to capture some water birds as well.

Located one kilometre off the main road Cinnamon Bey, Beruwala sets a pleasant ambiance. Our culinary journey began at Rock Salt, which is a fusion restaurant. The ambiance of the restaurant was similar to the hotel, featuring cane lanterns and geometric weaves owing to the Ottoman influence of the region. #CinnamonHotels #Beruwala #HotRock #RockSalt #DownSouth #HolidayDestinations #SriLanka http://www.ft.lk/2015/02/21/hot-rock-cooking-at-rock-salt/

Tried @boxonoodlessl today and it was totally worth for the price of 500-600 bucks per bowl. Geisha was the best with Teriyaki chicken and kang kung!so so good that wanted to have another one though the portion is filling af. The gong was super fine with chunks of sweet & sour fish topped with bell pepper! Them noodles were great but the rice was the flop which it didn’t have any extra element so ordinary rice with some chicken and prawns here and there though the menu says it’s Indonesian rice(Jakarta Jumble) Loved the ambiance and definitely recommending ❤️ #Trover #Troverfoodie #foodie #food #Colombo #SriLanka
