Pettah Road - Cafe & Restaurant

Best Known For

Black pork curry, with steamed rice, sautéed green beans and roti.

Experience some of the finest Sri Lankan food in Melbourne at Pettah Road – Café & Restaurant on Burwood Road in Hawthorn. On balmy Melbourne days, chill out alfresco in the beer garden, or head indoors where tantalising aromas waft from the kitchen amid surrounds of exposed brick, bamboo screens, polished wood floors and stylish table settings. Graze on bites like devilled chicken, onion, banana pepper, tomatoes, capsicum and housemade chilli paste, before devouring slow-cooked lamb curry with yellow rice and green beans sautéed with almond flakes. Perhaps Ceylon spice-rubbed beef Scotch fillet, with mash potato and mushroom gravy entices, or butterflied prawns cooked in Jaffna coconut curry spices; for a sweet finish to your meal, try curd and treacle, coconut custard pudding or falooda.
