We just finished the sunrise hike up Ella Rock and our legs are jelly. Who sells the best, thickest Pol Roti with Lunu Miris in town to carb load for recovery.

You need to go to Matey Hut. It is a tiny spot just past the railway station. Their coconut roti is made fresh on a hot iron plate, crispy on the outside and soft inside. Pair it with their spicy onion sambol and a steaming cup of plain tea. You will have your energy back in no time.

Do not forget to ask for a side of dhal! Dipping hot coconut roti into thick Sri Lankan dhal is the ultimate post hike breakfast.

Matey Hut is legendary, but if the line is too long, try the small roadside carts near the turnoff to Nine Arch Bridge. They sell amazing hot roti stuffed with vegetable curry.

I gained 5 kilos in Ella just eating roti. Totally worth the hike up the rock just to justify eating four of them.

If you want something sweeter after the hike, ask for the roti with Kithul treacle instead of the spicy sambol. It is a massive sugar boost.
