| - Small unit located on Markham Road, strictly take out and catering. One thing to note is that the place accepts ONLY CASH...which is a major annoyance if your plastic like me. Prices average $11 among the main stuff. Clean environment, and the service was quick. When it comes to Sri Lankan food you can include this place on your list. Good simple straight forward selection. Ordered Shrimp Lamprais and Chicken Biriyani.
Chicken Biriyani - Was a bit disappointing. Did not even look like biriyani -_-. Got some rice, chicken leg/thigh, and some veggies....Asides from that it tasted good thou. Spice and flavor was present, but yeah.....
Shrimp Lamprais - The packaging was unexpected. The lamprais was wrapped in foil, then placed in a box. Compared to the red paper that most places wrap it in, this was better and was still steaming hot when I got home. Coming to the food, flavor flavor spice spice flavor. It was great, had a hint of that Colombo taste. Potato curry, fried eggplant curry, dal , onion curry, yellow rice, egg, good amount of shrimp, and some chili's for good measure. It was good.
Good refreshing taste, overall would recommend Araliya. For me it was a something new, and heard positive reviews from word of mouth. Cant give it as 3.5, but cause of the lamprais giving it a 4/5. Planning on trying other items soon.
