A Postcard from Sri Lanka

A Postcard from Sri Lanka

In her Postcard from Sri Lanka, food TV producer Antonia Lloyd takes us on a sensory journey through the Indian Ocean island’s lush landscapes and vibrant kitchens. The rich and diverse cuisine of the island is shaped by centuries of trade, colonial influence, and both Buddhist and Tamil tradition. From hoppers at breakfast to fiery roadside curries, it's a delicious portrait of a country where spice is a way of life.
