Nerissa Jayasingha (Lankan Tucker) - the breadth and possibilities of Sri Lankan food

There's a huge Sri Lankan community in Australia but the breadth and possibilities of Sri Lankan food aren't always part of the culinary conversation. We talk to Nerissa Jayasingha about Lankan Tucker, her Sri Lankan-skewed cafe in Brunswick West. How are hoppers and kottu roti melded with Aussie brunch to create an appealing cafe menu? What does lasagne have to do with anything? And pricing! We talk about the challenges of putting the correct value on a cuisine that's often perceived as a cheap feed. https://www.instagram.com/lankantucker/?hl=en Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast Follow Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.
