Sri Lankan Ambassador to Bahrain H.E. Pradeepa Saram inaugurated the colourful and flavoursome “Sri Lankan Fest” at Lulu Hypermarket in Dana Mall yesterday. Chief guest for the evening’s inauguration was Fahad Faisal Al Ayanti, Senior Specialist for International Relations at Bahrain Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BCCI).

Also present was Lulu Group Director Juzer Rupawala and senior management of the Hypermarket. The focus is very much on the spicy and full-bodied flavours of Sri Lanka’s cuisine with cookery demos by well-known professional chefs, amazing deals on Sri Lankan ingredient checklists and a basket of selected goodies from the Emerald Isle of the Indian Ocean – tea, spices, seafood, fruits and veg, rice and a variety of coconut products.

“Once again, we are happy to see Sri Lankan flavours and the bountiful produce of our country take centre-stage in Lulu Hypermarket,” said Ambassador Saram. “Lulu Hypermarket has showcased all these culinary highlights very well and I invite all to participate and have a Lankan gastronomic adventure during this Fest.” From Sri Lankan spices to full-bodied tea varieties, organic coconut products to red rice and fish, exotic Sri Lanka will come alive at Lulu.
