If you’re in search of the best bar in Colombo, or a place to gobble up a delicious evening meal while watching the sun plunge into the Indian Ocean, you need not look beyond our roof. Hotel MaRadha brings you the top five dishes served at Sky Yard.
Welcome to Sky Yard, where the view is as exquisite as the flavours. Perched atop Hotel MaRadha, our rooftop bar blends a breathtaking sunset over the Indian Ocean with a panoramic view of Colombo’s skyline.
Sky Yard: Where Sunsets Meets Culinary Delight
Nestled high above the city, Sky Yard is more than just a place to drown your melancholy; it’s an escape. The open-air ambiance lets you soak in the stunning panoramic views as the sun bids farewell over the horizon. The gentle ocean breeze, the rhythmic play of waves crashing onto the shore – it all sets the stage for an unforgettable evening.
While you immerse yourself in the breathtaking view
1. Crispy Chicken Wings
A Perfect Prelude
Sky Yards takes a popular appetiser and transforms it into an all-Sri Lankan taste trip. Start your culinary adventure at Sky Yard with a plate of our Chicken Wings. Golden and tantalising, each bite is filled with flavour – the crispy exterior giving way to succulent chicken beneath. It perfectly sets the tone before you delve into the rest of the dishes on this list. With no additives or artificial flavourings, the dish receives its delightful punch through organic Sri Lankan spices.
2. Wadda Style Pork
Hotel MaRadha’s Very Own Flavourful Fusion
If you are out on the hunt for exclusives, this is one you wouldn’t want to miss. Hotel MaRadha brings you the rich tapestry of indegenous (wadda) cooking, with Wadda Style Pork. This dish, a fusion of ancient tradition and innovation, showcases the finest culinary prowess of Sky Yard. Tender chunks of pork, marinated and cooked to perfection with herbs and spices, promise a burst of flavours with every bite.
3. Mutton Kottu
Sri Lankan Classic Streetfood Reinvented
Sky Yard’s take on the classic Mutton Kottu is a testament to the chef’s dedication to providing guests with a full Sri Lankan dining experience. Your time in Sri Lanka is hardly complete until you taste the country’s favourite street food; Kottu. The rhythmic chopping of the ingredients, the sizzle of the griddle – it all comes together to create a dish that pays homage to tradition while pushing the boundaries of taste.
The visual charm remains identical to the Deluxe Queen Room, with the added luxury of a more expansive sleeping arrangement. The partial sea view from these rooms ensures that every moment spent in the hotel is surrounded by a sense of tranquility and coastal beauty.
4. Jumbo Prawn Sizzler
Recreating a dish that faded with time
Prawn Sizzlers were once the city’s favourite, but all good things come to an end. That’s why Sky Yard takes you back in time with our very own take on a sizzler dish. Prepare your taste buds for a seafood feast made of freshly caught jumbo prawns. A sizzling platter arrives at your table, topped with succulent prawns bathed in delectable sauces. The aroma is irresistible, and the taste? Nothing short of a culinary masterpiece.
5. Chicken Nachos
A popular dish reinvented in Sri Lankan style
Sky Yard’s Chicken Nachos redefine the notion of bar snacks. While you’re accustomed to the tortilla-based chicken nachos everywhere else, Sky Yard uses local flatbread. This, perfectly seasoned chicken, and gooey cheese makes for a medley of textures and tastes. It’s the nacho you’ve never tasted!
Sky Yard Is More Than Just A Bar
Sky Yard isn’t just a bar; it’s a gastronomic adventure that’s complemented with an Instagrammable view, an infinity pool, and top shelf alcoholic beverages. As you indulge in the Crispy Chicken Wings, savour the Wadda Style Pork, relish the Mutton Kottu, delight in the Jumbo Prawn Sizzler, and revel in the Chicken Nachos, you’ll find that each dish is harmoniously recreated with a touch of Sri Lankan exclusiveness, and Sky Yard’s culinary uniqueness.
So, the next time you’re in Colombo, make your way to the top of Hotel MaRadha and let Sky Yard redefine your culinary expectations. After all, it’s not just dining; it’s an experience. Cheers to the best bar in Colombo!
