Amidst the auspicious ambiance of “Seth Pirit Sajjayana” of Maha Sangharatne, a large gathering, including Sri Lankans, celebrated the inauguration of “Ceylonese Crab.”
Adorned with Sri Lankan decorations and home accents, “Ceylonese Crab” not only offers a tantalizing array of Sri Lankan dishes but also provides insights into local architecture, handicrafts, and home décor patterns.
