Sri Lanka has proudly secured the 7th spot among the world’s best culinary destinations for 2025, as announced by Condé Nast Traveler in its prestigious Readers’ Choice Awards.
Earning an impressive score of 95.56%, the island nation surpassed celebrated global destinations such as Türkiye, France, Morocco, Colombia, Maldives, South Africa, and Greece - a testament to the growing global admiration for Sri Lankan cuisine.

Highlighting the country’s vibrant food scene, the magazine noted, “Sri Lanka is finally getting the recognition it deserves. Dishes are packed with a thrilling blend of spice, colour, and lots of coconut - and look no further than Pettah Market in Colombo to indulge yourself.”

Condé Nast Traveler further emphasized that the heart of Sri Lankan cuisine lies in its home-cooked traditions, where family recipes passed down through generations add a distinct warmth and authenticity that make the island’s food truly extraordinary.
