Sigiri Sri Lanka Restaurant in New York was founded by Tanya DeSilva and Mala Rajapakse. Two long time friends whose fondness for preparing Sri Lankan cuisine blossomed into the idea of opening up the restaurant. Sri Lankan food is inspired by several different ethnicities.Quite a few periods of colonization paved the way for the exotic cuisine, blending indigenous ingredients and cooking techniques with influences from Indian, Portuguese, Dutch, Malay and a host of other world food traditions. From the traditional Rice dishes, the staple food of Sri Lanka, to other specialties such as the famous Hoppers (bowl-shaped rice pancakes), Indi Appa, and Lamprais (a dish of Dutch origin) comprising of rice cooked in a meat stock and slowly baked in a banana leaf with a variety of meat and vegetable sides. You can taste them all at Sigiri.
