Buy

If you are in Colombo, you must visit this shop: BAREFOOT, 706 Galle Road, Colombo 3. They have some of the bests tissues I ever seen in my life.. You can visit their home page at http://www.barefootceylon.com/home.htm

Eat

The Wadiya is in Wellawatte next to the Beach: great for an evening meal
Saras is one of the best Indian Restaurants. It is on Duplication Road.
Mango Tree, one of the finest restaurants in the city.
The Langoon - seafood restaurant

Drink

Thambili (Orange Coconut juice) is the safest, since they cut it open in front of you (uncontaminated).
Spring water with SLS certification are safe to drink.
