Very much recommend the gorgonzola, which strangely has already vanished. It was great to be able to get these things locally and I'll be another one who's back next week.
Just wanted to say a big well done on getting the market going, the food there is wonderful and it has a really lovely atmosphere - am on first name terms with several stall holders already! Strongly recommend A Taste of Sri Lanka, love the 'pay what you like' book stall, and will be back in a couple of weeks time for the difficult-to-get-hold-of cheese ordered on our behalf. Maybe next time even the weather will behave...
