When it comes to World Cup Cricket in an island like ours, enthusiasm transgresses age, gender, lifestyle or any other criteria that divides.  Interest in the matches are common, however how best to enjoy them comes down to a matter of personal preference.  

As always, Cinnamon Lakeside Colombo thinks of it all.  The Library offers the pub-goer a comfortable venue to take it all in over a special snack menu.  Seven Degrees North allows the socially active to stay connected with the World Cup whilst catching up with friends.  The Terrace, where the matches are broadcast over a giant screen, takes on a carnival like atmosphere on certain match dates when the Big Match Barbecue comes out.

For those who opt to watch the matches in the comfort of their own homes or hotel rooms, Cinnamon Lakeside has devised a method of ensuring nobody goes hungry.  The ‘Match Pack’ is a party pack of food available at Goodies that will be packed for take away on request.  Eager viewers can either place an order in advance and collect their Match Pack from Goodies, or place their order through Room Service who will have the food delivered to the customer’s doorstep.  To ensure not a World Cup moment is spared, the hotel broadcasts the matches at Goodies on a brand new flat screen Samsung television.

The Match Pack is available in portions of twenty-four, forty-eight and ninety-six pieces, ideal for three, six and twelve people respectively.  It consists of Chicken Drumsticks, Vegetable Spring Rolls, Fish Cutlets, Vegetable Samosas, Tuna Sandwiches, Roast Beef Sandwiches, Prawn Croquets and Chicken Pies.  The twenty-four piece pack is priced at Rs. 1,300/-++++ with proportionate increases based on quantity.  

Goodies can be contacted between 7:30am and 9.00pm on 2491804 or to place a delivery order, Room Service may be reached on 5768768.  Delivery charges begin from Rs. 250/- for Colombo 1 to 11
