Kavi Cafe & Restaurant

Head down to Selsdon and you'll find Kavi tucked away on Addington Road, doing what feels like genuine Sri Lankan home cooking without the faffing about. The kottu roti arrives sizzling on a hot plate, properly charred and packed with whatever you've asked for. Lamprais, devilled curries, hoppers—it's all executed with real confidence here, not diluted for the British high street. The café vibe is straightforward and warm, the kind of place where regulars come back because the food's honest and the prices won't hurt your wallet.
