Sri Lankan restaurant · Tooting

@infatuation

"One of London’s most reliable Sri Lankan spots, Jaffna has been around since 1991. And after taking a seat in the homely dining room, you’ll pick up on the fact that this is a place people return to. Takeaway orders fly out the door and Tooting locals drop by to pick up a cardamom-heavy kothu here and a bag of mutton rolls there. The curries are great, in particular the Jaffna special chicken curry—a rich and spicy tomato-based sauce with tender pieces of boneless chicken. Paired with the egg hopper, it’s a winning combination. The spot is perfect for a cosy catch-up with a few friends over mutton biriyani and fried string hoppers." - rianne shlebak, jake missing, heidi lauth beasley
