Sri Lanka has exactly one place on the list so far: Paradise Road The Gallery Cafe, honored by The 50.
-
Rank 1. Paradise Road The Gallery Cafe
Sri Lankan Café
The desserts are displayed on Geoffrey Bawa's old desk, which tells you most of what you need to know about this place. An open-air courtyard café set in the late architect's former office, it has lily-pad ponds, candelabras, and rotating shows by local artists. The menu runs to straightforward Sri Lankan plates and classic cocktails, with a 30-strong dessert list heavy on chocolate and homemade cakes. Erudite without being stiff.
