Green Cabin, 453 Galle Road, Kollupitiya, Colombo, Sri Lanka

Green Cabin is exactly what it sounds like: A little oasis of plant-life in Colombo. 
The setting is such that you're kind of inside...and kind of outside: There are two rooms that are fully behind walls, an uncovered patio area in the middle of the space, and the rest is a horseshoe covered by a roof, but you're essentially outside, so wear mosquito repellent...especially after the rainy season. 

As previously mentioned, I love hoppers/appam. I love all kinds: plain, egg, milk...though I am partial to the latter with a touch of spicy sambal. When it comes to the flavour of beautifully balanced opposites, the intense sweetness of coconut milk and palm sugar complemented by a kick of spice is unparalleled by any other dish.

Green Cabin not only does the humble hopper proud, it provides a tranquil, star gazing setting in which to eat them.
