An evolving Colombo has many different dining options with cuisines from around the world. Just outside the city however, lies one of the most picturesque destinations one can imagine overlooking the tranquil waters of the Diyawanna.
Of the plethora of dining options available at the culinary hub that is Waters Edge, the Boardwalk has been a crowd favourite for its location, ambiance and of course the great food served up. Adding to its allure the Boardwalk today launched an exciting new menu with some of the best known dishes of the world prepared by the hotel’s internationally acclaimed chefs.
Additions have been made to every section of Boardwalk’s already extensive menu, in order to cater to all types of taste buds. The starters and appetisers list has received an oriental boost with spicy Thai Vegetable Spring Rolls served with Hot Garlic Sauce and Indonesian Style Chicken Satay topped with Peanut Sauce making it to the menu.
