When it comes to Sri Lankan cuisine, the vibrant flavours and diverse textures of short eats and snacks are truly unparalleled. These delightful bites are not only a staple in Sri Lankan households but also a beloved treat for food enthusiasts around the world. In London, Kannan’s Kitchen has established itself as the go-to destination for the best Sri Lankan shorties and snacks, offering an authentic taste of Sri Lanka right in the heart of the city.
A Taste of Tradition
Kannan’s Kitchen is deeply rooted in the culinary traditions of Sri Lanka. Originating from Kannan Stores, an ethnic grocery store established over 28 years ago in North London, our journey began with a passion for authentic Sri Lankan cuisine. Today, we bring that same dedication to our range of short eats and snacks, ensuring that each bite is a genuine reflection of our rich culinary heritage.
An Array of Delicious Options
Our menu features a wide variety of Sri Lankan shorties and snacks, each prepared with the finest ingredients and traditional recipes. Here are some of the must-try items:
Mallu Buns
Soft, fluffy buns filled with a spicy fish mixture, Mallu Buns are a quintessential Sri Lankan snack that combines the perfect balance of heat and savoury flavours.
Fish Cutlets
These bite-sized delights are made with a mixture of fish, potatoes, and spices, coated in breadcrumbs and deep-fried to perfection.
Kimbula Buns
Shaped like a crocodile (hence the name “kimbula” which means crocodile in Sinhala), these sweet buns are a delightful treat with a hint of cardamom and a sugary crust.
Mutton Rolls
Crispy on the outside and filled with a savoury mutton mixture, these rolls are a popular choice for their rich, hearty flavour.
Vegetable Rolls
For those who prefer a vegetarian option, our vegetable rolls are packed with a delicious mix of spiced vegetables, encased in a crispy roll.
