Where
can
I
start?
I
first
visited
Shan's
place
one
year
ago,
on
my
first
visit
and
week
of
Sri
Lanka,
and
never
thought
I
would
make
a
friend
for
life
on
that
day!!
Not
only
was
I
amazed
by
his
food,
and
local
ingredients
but
also
his
passion
for
cooking
and
for
serving
others.
I
have
never
met
a
more
selfless
and
kind
person
in
my
life.
Nishan,
who
is
part
of
this
beautiful
family
and
Shan,
instantly
became
like
my
own
blood!
Within
the
first
week
of
knowing
each
other
we
went
for
his
cousin's
wedding,
and
after
this,
our
story
continued...
After
returning
6
months
later,
he
was
still
the
kind
and
hardworking
person,
and
this
time,
I
had
the
opportunity
to
stay
in
his
homestay
for
one
and
a
half
months
with
my
father.
I
was
able
to
taste
his
delicious
food
every
day,
learn
his
recipes,
heal
with
his
medicine,
but
mos
importantly,
get
full
of
their
contagious
magical
energyโจ
both
Nishan
and
Shan,
opened
the
doors
of
their
home,
and
I
was
truly
able
to
see
through.
The
love
they
have
poured
into
this
place,
and
Shan
wanting
to
preserve
his
family's
essence
is
reflected
in
everything
he
does.
More
than
eating
his
food,
you
are
healing
with
it.
You
are
leaving
lighter
and
happier
from
when
you
first
arrived.
You
start
seeing
life
and
foods
differently
by
just
being
around
them.
He
makes
all
the
spices
himself,
makes
coconut
milk
from
scratch
and
really
is
concern
about
only
using
home-grown
and
local
products,
gluten
free
and
vegan
goodness.
I
was
fortunate
enough
to
meet
many
of
his
customers
coming
to
his
restaurant
and
was
so
amazed
about
the
people
he
attracts
and
their
wholesome
reactions

If
you
want
to
feel
like
home
and
really
connect,
this
is
the
place
to
come๐๐ผ
