A Night With The SL Team & Friends To Celebrate Diwali

This week, we hosted an intimate group of South Asian talent and friends of SL to celebrate Diwali at Sri Lankan restaurant, Kolamba East. From the food to the diyas – and the outfits – here’s what we got up to…

After some watermelon, vodka, grapefruit and turmeric-infused welcome drinks – and the lighting of diyas – the meal kicked off with some traditional Sri Lankan starters, including jackfruit roti, idli and sambar. For mains, guests chose between a king prawn hopper biriyani, tamarind chicken, dhal with spinach and a heritage tomato sambol, while for dessert, they had a traditional kheer. 

Guests included content creators and influencers such as Kavita Mehta, Nikkita Chadha, Maninder Sachdeva and Amika Dhir, along with long-time friend of SL and founder of Ruby Hammer Beauty, Ruby Hammer MBE, plus her daughter, founder of Indu Beauty, Reena Hammer. We were also joined by The Great British Bake Off contestant Crystelle Pereira, Fable & Mane’s Namrat Klair and Bicester Village’s Sandeep Kular – along with many more.
