Best Lunu Miris in Colombo, LK

Upali's is widely considered the gold standard for home-style Sri Lankan cuisine. Their Lunu Miris is praised for its perfect coarse texture and the precise balance of acidity from the lime against the heat of the crushed chili flakes.

Set under a 200-year-old Banyan tree, the Lunu Miris here is prepared using a traditional 'Miris Gala' (grinding stone), which releases essential oils from the chilies and onions that a blender simply cannot replicate.

Chef Dharshan Munidasa elevates this humble condiment by using the highest grade of Maldive fish and organic chilies. It is served as a crucial component of their famous 'Incredible Egg Hopper'.

Known for decades as the bastion of Jaffna cuisine in Colombo, their Lunu Miris is notoriously spicy and robust, staying true to Northern Sri Lankan flavor profiles.
