The opening of Colombo’s new hotspot Kava (previously Sugar 41) took place recently. This quirky lavishly decorated resto/bar lounge pays an aesthetic homage to island culture from the Indian Ocean to the South Pacific, its cuisine, cocktails and the potency of Kava after which it is named. Jungle fever which is the new hedonism of this utterly cool space is sure to be a hit on the city’s social scene.
