Colombo City Centre unveils most versatile dining experience

Colombo City Centre, Sri Lanka’s first international standard shopping mall situated in the heart of Colombo, is the top choice for young people and families who wish to spend quality time together and engage in a variety of activities that guarantee fun and enjoyment. 

The dining facilities available at Colombo City Centre have been a standout attraction to all visitors, with a wide array of meal and beverage offerings ranging from Fast Food to Fine Dining. Catering to the local palate as well as international cuisines like Indian, Indonesian, Japanese, and Italian, along with the highly popular Playtrix sports bar, Colombo City Centre is the ideal place to visit if you’re looking for a superb meal with friends or family. 

The new addition to the proud repertoire of restaurants is Smoking Hearts BBQ, the all-new low and slow smokehouse restaurant situated on the terrace of the Food Studio on the third floor. Smoking Hearts BBQ has delivered exceptionally well on their concept and offers a style of BBQ that is new to Colombo, taking inspiration from the classic low and slow style of BBQ cooking, marinating deep cuts of premium meats and smoking them with tender, loving care. 

All dishes are a labour of love; the outcome when love and heat collide. Combining this rich low and slow style of cooking with the best of street food from across the South American border, Smoking Hearts offers up BBQ trays, fresh tacos and churros for a feast that’s hard to forget. 

With select cuts of brisket, chicken, lamb and prawns as well as pulled polos and smoked chilli beans, there are options for both vegetarians and meat lovers. The great American smokehouse experience is right here.

Jesse Aston (Big Mighty Deli), Amy Quickfall (Studio Nice One) and sibling duo, Ryan and Jonathan Wijeratne (You’re My Favourite) are the brains and skilled hands behind the brand, as they churn out these instant classics at what can now be attested to as one of the best BBQ locations in Colombo.
