A night at Galle face sea shore











When the word, Galle face, spells out what suddenly come to mind is a beautiful sea shore with huge grass ground and also The Galle face hotel. Early days the Galle face ground had been used for horse races, kite contests also as a place where people stay relaxing. In old gold days of Sinhala music there is a famous song namely, Yaman Bando wesak balanna, describes how the then people thought about Galle face ground and how they were at Galle face at twilight times. There was a loud outcry attempt of sell out of GFG by then government and due to publicity of media it was foiled. And it still safe for the all people of Sri Lanka. Even today people do enjoy visiting GFG.

When the time is night or else evening GFG is full of happening. People get flock to GFG and stay relaxing. Kids are really enjoying with playing kites. Lovers walk holding their hand and cuddling each other after long period of office times. In a nutshell it is a place where people drift their distress.

It was Friday, the weekend all office people waiting for and as well as I. I got a call from Erandaika (Bunty Bubbly) asking me to come to GFG after work. After few hours of shopping around CMB we went to GFG to stay free for few hours.

There are boutiques either side of the road, the way to car park. They sell ISSO WADE (prawn wade), barbecued chicken, Shrimp wade, ROTI and many. We bought ROTI, barbecued chicken and ISSO WADE for our dinner. It was superb taste that every Sri Lankan should taste.
