Welipanna, Southern Expressway
The Southern Expressway opened two gleaming service stations near Welipenna. Each houses a Cargills Food City and assorted shops like Juiceez, Dinemore, Gihan's, Gill's, Pascucci and New Monis. They also have ATMs and quite decent bathrooms.

The wash rooms are accessible from inside and there's no need to around the back. Just walk towards the ATMs and the you'll see the entrance to the washroom.

And its not expensive compared to other shops… Malupan at monis only Rs. 42 :) and fish roll just Rs. 40

Service overall is kinda slow though, especially if you are in a hurry to get back on the road.

Pascucci was an uttter disappointment (Colombo>Galle). Half of the stuff on the menu were not there, service was horrid, and the order of a family who ordered after I did was completely messed up.

Absolutely right… Horrible service… Staff unskilled… The cake I ordered was aged like scotch… Don't go

Very much disappointed with this rest area. I went with my small kids to the washroom. A woman who was cleaning the wash room scolded us using bad words. My kids even got scared. Is this really a rest place if kids can't use d toilets? That woman is a thin tall woman, worked on Sunday 25th may around 2pm in galle to Colombo side rest area. Pl don't keep these kind of wicked women to work.

Quite bizarre that they don't have a gas station here.

Went through one of these back in april, and I've been out of the country for the last few years and was looking forward to checking these out. piss poor. the place looks great from the outside, but that's pretty much it. Both on our way to galle and back, the AC was switched off and the doors were open (we asked around and were told the AC is only put on when the place gets busy). On our return trip (at night), the place was open, the shops were open, but the lighting inside was worse than in a saiver kade- dim and dingy. See, this is why we can't have nice things. No sooner do we build them, we make an excuse to not run the places properly… Sad.

Recently I had the displeasure of ordering a chocolate biscuit pudding from the Pascucci coffee-shop.
I knew there was something wrong with the taste as soon as I had a bite, so I naturally checked the expiry date.
to my surprsie coudn't find the expiry or the manufacture dates in the dessert cup. After a short debate with the shop manger about the condition of the chocolate biscuit pudding, I was able to get a black coffee since they didn't offer cash refunds (and coffee would allow me to take the long drive home…….just in case)……Consumers Beware !!!!!

Very funny service place…No place to buy a cup of tea. They only have Nescafe…I guess Multi National Company is offering some kind of incentive to these staff in the cafeterias to offer Nescafe and refuse Tea. Even foreigners were puzzled when they were offered Nescafe instead of Tea….You walk in to any cafe and ask for tea they either ask you to try at Monis shop of offer Nescafe. When you try at Monis shop they say tea will take 30 Minutes to prepare and who will wait 30 minutes for tea on a one hour journey. My advice is take your tea or don't try tea at this spot.

The statement "Sri Lankans, however, have to stop, no matter the length of the trip. Hence the service area." shows the writer's ignorance that it is an accepted standard internationally to build rest points at every 50km or so intervals avoid driver fatigue. It is not because Sri Lankans need to stop no matter :-)
