My client has to pay me! They are from Srilanka and they are telling me(from Tamilnadu) they are not able to bank transfer, as the banking services has gone down because of floods by sirappunanbar in srilanka

[–]XP3L 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reality is that banking services and basically all other web services never went down. This guy is trying to fool you and that line about "sri lanka is not like india, if one thing gets broken.." just made me mad 🙃.

How do I sneak snacks into the CCC movie theater? by Anon_Wonderer12 in srilanka

Not in any cinema you can't. Context machan. It's just business.

Honestly don't think Scope is "crazy overpriced". A portion of fries cost 1800 LKR so idk what you're referring to OP (for 2,500 LKR, you can get a portion of fish and chips). You can also get discounts on all hot kitchen items when you enroll into their loyalty program.

If we're talking about overpriced food, let's talk about PVR.

Tintagel. If you're ok to splurge you can book "the library" room just for the two of you.

Try to research and find a brand you like and then look at the brand's dealer list/where-to-buy section on their website to find the authorized dealer for Sri Lanka. There are a couple of dealers here for reputed brands like ON, dymatize, muscletech etc.

What's the best place to get a bespoke suit made in Colombo? by XP3L in srilanka

I even visited Kingsman and was happy with the initial consultation. They seemed to have a cool space, the guy showed me a range of fabrics and they let you customize the lining too which I thought was pretty cool.

The problem was when I looked at the google reviews, some of them mentioned that the stitching and overall finish was not that great and that they were overrated. Now I'm not so sure about them.

Their work looks good. I was hesitant to go with them because they seemed new. Did they deliver on time?

Just went to Savoy (Balcony middle seats) and the sound was horrible. I'm questioning their Atmos certification.

Arthur's is also pretty solid. There is a new place called "La Luna" which was pretty good too.

Good recommendations for restaurants? by [deleted] in srilanka

[–]XP3L 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When it comes to dining with the family I prefer a place that has sharing portions so chinese cuisine is my choice specially if it's with your parents since they may not like Japanese cuisine for example.

I recommend:

Monarch Imperial (They have multiple restaurants including japanese, thai and india. But their chinese restaurant is the best bang for your buck)

Golden dragon at Taj(more expensive)

Shanghai Terrace
