Colombo, the bustling capital city of Sri Lanka, is a place filled with hidden gems and vibrant nightlife. One such gem that I recently had the pleasure of discovering is "Uncle's Bar." Nestled in the heart of the city, Uncle's Bar offers a delightful combination of diverse cocktails and delectable bar bites, making it a must-visit spot for any lover of good food and drinks.
The Ambiance:
Walking into Uncle's Bar is like stepping into a different world. The cozy and welcoming atmosphere is perfect for both intimate evenings and lively gatherings with friends. The dimly lit interior, adorned with warm wooden accents and comfortable seating, instantly sets the mood for a memorable night out.
Cocktails:
The main highlight of my visit to Uncle's Bar was undoubtedly their extensive cocktail menu. From classic concoctions to inventive signature drinks, they had it all. Each cocktail was a work of art, both visually appealing and bursting with flavor.
We started with the "Rampe Colada" a refreshing mix of clarified Gin, Pandan, Pineapple and a hint of Coconut Water. The tropical notes transported me to a serene beach, even though I was right in the heart of the city. The presentation, with a Pandan Leaf, was an added bonus.
For those who prefer something with Arrack, the "Island Sour" was a fantastic choice. It combined the Arrack, Lemon Bitters & Burnt Cinnamon. It was a unique blend that left my taste buds tingling.
My personal favorite, however, was the "Aunty Agnes" This delightful concoction of Narang, gin, homemade grenadine & lemon, tangy symphony of flavors that left me craving for more.
Mouthwatering Bar Bites:
Complementing the delightful cocktails, Uncle's Bar offered an array of delectable bar bites that were simply mouthwatering. From smoked prawns to succulent chicken thighs with a Mlaysian hint of flavor, the food menu was a perfect accompaniment to the drinks.
I couldn't get enough of the "Cheese Toast." Covered in a generous layer of melted cheese, and a dollop of sour cream, they were the epitome of comfort food. The perfect sidekick for sipping on cocktails.
The "Sri Lankan Street Tacos" were another hit. Filled with flavorful, well-seasoned Polos and accompanied by a variety of salsas, they provided a tantalizing burst of local flavors.
Conclusion:
My experience at Uncle's Bar in Colombo was nothing short of spectacular. The wide range of cocktails and scrumptious bar bites, combined with the inviting ambiance, made it an unforgettable night. Whether you're a tourist exploring Colombo or a local looking for a new spot to unwind, Uncle's Bar is a hidden gem that you don't want to miss.
