Matara මාතර Nadee's Food Trail

As a drifter, I seek on my feet and my tongue. Matara is one of those places where one must fully immerse themselves taste buds first. As a fishing town, the local delicacies include Ambulthiyal or sour fish and Jaadi both prepared in such a way as to preserve them naturally. In addition, try the Mango curry that pairs fabulously with the fish and the island-famous ‘Rathu Bath’ or red rice.

Sri Lanka and the Netherlands have a long standing history. Through this project, we highlight the many marks of a rich past that survived into the present; structures, people, livelihoods, food and the stories that embody the spirit of this place. Unravelling history through the lens of youth is more than just a reminder of our rich heritage, but a vision for the future of Matara.
