Another great video from you Tim, thanks for another Melbourne experience

I just have to compliment your willingness to mix dishes to make the tastiest bite to your preference! I always dip and mix my foods and try different combos, many other reviewers refuse to try stuff any other way than as is or how is intended. It's way more pleasant to see you enjoy everything however you like without being blocked by that snobbish ideal of only as is. That's why you're my favourite reviewer, seriously! 💕🙏

Actually, $25 AU$, but that’s cheap for Melbourne. I’ve been there. 76 High street, Northcote. 86 Tram from Bourke Street in the city. There’s a good cinema across the road from the restaurant (Valhalla Cinema) There’s another 25$ Sri Lankan all you can eat place at 252 St. George’s Road North Fitzroy. It’s called Citrus. (96 Tram, also from Bourke street in the city. )

All the food looks delicious 😋 So many items to try. Plus the freshly made Hoppers a very nice touch. Thanks for bringing us along Tim.

The pudding you had is called "Watalappam" a sri lankan pudding made with Jaggery and Eggs.

I had Sri Lankan food the other day! They are completely different tastes, different way of using spices when compared with Indian food. Its amazing how tastes can be completely different evem though they are next to each other. I would place Sri Lankan cusine closer to Indonesian or Malaysian or Tahi and not Indian!
