Brunch by the Ocean- King of the Mambo opens for Sunday brunch with live music

-

When it comes to luxuriousl­y indulgent weekends, nothing delivers quite like a Sunday brunch does. Galle Face Hotel’s

King of the Mambo is elevating Colombo’s favourite Sunday pastime with its newly introduced A Lo Cubano- brunch every Sunday from noon to 4 pm by the ocean.

A Lo Cubano isn’t just brunch. It’s a brunch party. King of the Mambo is dispensing with the traditiona­l stuffy Sunday brunch norms- for one, guests order directly off an à la carte menu, with a choice of classic Mediterran­ean cuisine (think crispy tostas decked with unctuous burrata,

the hedonistic delights of truffle French fries, silky smooth pasta slicked with a light, herby sauce) and a selection of rosé wine, sangria and cocktails.

Food tastes better when it’s tinged with salty sea breeze. King of the Mambo is home to Colombo’s most iconic view of the Indian Ocean, accompanie­d with cool breeze from the Galle Face Green next door.

Guests are invited to pair their meal and view with a selection from the expansive list of beverages and make a toast to the sound of live music from the King of the Mambo band- a group of Cuban performers especially in Colombo to play at the venue. To add a dash of excitement, guests have the chance of winning something during brunch too (hot tip- come in your best Sunday casual smarts to win Best Dressed Couple).

Launched in late 2018, King of the Mambo had barely opened its doors before it took Colombo by storm.
