For those with a taste for underwater specialties, Cinnamon Lakeside Colombo hosts a regular seafood affair where diners decide how their seafood is prepared. The event takes place on the Terrace, a dazzling venue with a view of the swimming pool as well as the Beira Lake ahead.
The hotel is reputed for hosting a range of special events to cater to diverse palates. Whether it offers local cuisine, an international fare or fine beverages the hotel lives up to its promise of affordable indulgence.
‘Splendours of the Sea’ offers an extensive variety of seafood including a buffet of starters, mains and desserts for a mere Rs. 1,500++++. “We take pleasure in hosting promotions that are almost too good to be true,” proclaims Faizeen Jameel, Food and Beverage Manager at Cinnamon Lakeside Colombo “Diners patronise the hotel because they know they are getting real value for money amongst other reasons.”
A quick glance at the buffet is evidence enough. Red snapper, oyster, sea bass, seer, prawns, crabs, tuna, oysters and handallo and a plethora of other types of seafood are presented on ice. Lobster too is available at an additional charge per 100 grams. Diners select as they please and the hotel’s chefs offer them a choice of preparation – grilled, devilled, fried or cooked in Chinese or Thai style.
An international dinner buffet will accompany the seafood and consists of salads, pastas, rice and lasagna, along with a variety of vegetable and meat dishes. Diners are advised to save some space for the dessert buffet which comprises a delightful arrangement of sweets and puddings.
This month’s Splendours of the Sea promotion will be held on 15 and 16 September from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. Reservations and inquiries are entertained by the Poolbar team on 2491998.
