Few months ago, Clara Duflot @onausicaa and Nina Jayasuriya @ninajaya_ organised a shared meal in Yaka Villa.
Friends, relatives and people who work at the hotel were invited to prepare it together. Fish and vegetables were marinated, wrapped in foil and banana leaves, then covered in clay, shaped by many hands. The parcels were laid in the embers of a fire started with coconut husks, and left to cook slowly in their earthen shell. Once taken out of the fire, these edible sculptures were cracked open with a hammer, releasing the fish and vegetables inside.
