Sushi Is The New Black: Sushi Spots in Colombo

I believe we can all agree that with Japanese food, either you are obsessed over it or you thoroughly dislike it, and there’s no in-between. We have noticed though, that many Sri Lankans are starting to expand their taste palettes to other flavours and delicacies that East Asia has to offer.

On behalf of our fellow adventurous Lankan brothers and sisters, we took it upon ourselves to list out the best Sushi spots that you can find in Colombo. Let’s dive right in!
