About Lungi

The Kothu Roti (shredded flatbread stir-fried with egg and your choice of meat) and the Chicken Lamprais steamed in banana leaf anchor this Sri Lankan and South Indian kitchen on First Avenue, a Bib Gourmand spot built on deep, layered spice. On Sundays, brunch arrives as a full banana-leaf spread with biryani and multiple curries, turning the whole meal into a communal, all-in experience.
