The whizzing sounds of the hot cast-iron griddle that sautées all the roti, meats, veggies and sauce together, the rhythmic clanging of the steel blades that you can hear from a mile away, gosh darn we all miss our kottu so much.
Nonetheless, here we have 19 places in Colombo that deliver this beloved Lankan staple during curfew hours.
