During Vesak, the entire city goes 100% vegetarian out of respect. You will find massive Rice and Curry Dansals in residential and temple-dense areas like Borella, Nugegoda, and Maharagama. The food is exceptionally good because local aunties cook it as a community offering. Just look for the massive crowds and loudspeakers playing Buddhist chanting, get in line, and enjoy!

We found a massive noodle stall near Town Hall. The hospitality is unmatched here.

The fried manioc (cassava) with spicy sambol is the absolute best street snack you will find at a Dansal.
