Yeah this place was awesome. I was out on an excursion on my day off with little else to do besides nurse a hangover, so I decided to go check out a different part of town. The area that Rashnaa is located in has alot of expensive homes full of rich people. I walked right by at first, but the sharp curry smell struck me..and I was immediately ready to eat and eat alot.
Rashnaa has an outdoor patio. Inside there is a small dining area lightly decorated with some obscure, yet very cool to look at pictures. The bathrooms are located up on the stuffy second floor, which I found a bit awkward. After being seated I ordered the string hopper kothu combo with spicy chicken. I have never to my knowledge ever eaten Sri Lankan food, so I decided to jump with both feet on this one and order the weirdest sounding thing on the menu.
Not long after ordering my meal arrives. It's smelled soo good. There was a cylindric mass of egg noodles mixed with some form of vegetables and eggs. There were crepes, seasoned potatoes, and a cast iron looking bowl with alot of spicy sauce with a single small drumstick of chicken inside it. It was a small amount of chicken to be completely honest, so I was disappointed in that. The chicken itself was so soft, it came right off the bone...but that was little consolation in how little chicken I actually got.
In the end I loved the meal. The spicy sauce the chicken came in was perfect for dipping the crepe into, and I'll definitely be back to experiment more with their intriguing menu. The service was fast, however the ambience could use a bit of work. The tables seemed a bit too close together to the point that I almost felt that I was having dinner with the large family with two babies seated beside me making alot of noise. They actually fed one of the babies spicy-something which naturally resulted it coughing uncontrollably and gasping for breath. What were they thinking?? Repeatedly clapping the poor kid's back was hardly helping the situation.... aaannyway...Rishnaa!! Go there!
