    Oh, man visited this beautiful Island a few times, mouth-watering food, never forget Ambul Tiyal Fish Curry and Pork curry in Negombo, one of the best I ever had in my life. Very welcoming smiling people of Sri Lanka.
  • @stephcarlofc
    I had the privilege of knowing a Sri Lankan years ago growing up. His wife fixed us some 🇱🇰 food and I agree Luke, 🇱🇰 food is some of the most best food you'll eat in the world. Kinda underrated in my book. People should really try 🇱🇰 food.
  • Sri Lankans are such nice and hospitable people that me as a Pakistani always feel Sri Lanka is my 2nd home.
  • As a Sri Lankan ...Im really proud of my country's food culture ...Nothing like our delicacy ...Coconut sambol....Tks Luke for visiting my island ❤
  • @harshajay6671
    I didn’t see anybody use artificial colors or ingredients to cook these foods, not only it tastes good it is also healthy. as a srilankan l’m proud of our food culture, personally I haven’t tried some of the foods that Luke tried in this videos 😅. in my next vacation I’ll try to eat what I missed.
  • Excellent variety of unique foods! Can’t wait to explore SriLanka! Thank you 😊
  • @AussieAngeS

  • @AmandaSparkle
    I remember the video with the guys that climb the trees. I can't imagine how tough their feet must be, and how strong they are! Absolutely amazing!
  • හරිම සතුටුයි අපේ රටේ මිනිසුන්ට නායකයින්ට කිසිම වටිනාකමක් නොදැනෙන ලස්සනම රට... i love my country
  • Oh my god. I don't know how you found these types of Srilankan exotic foods. Even many Srilankans don't know some of these. I'm so surprised and happy as a Srilankan
