Ivilly Pevilly

Author: Asiff Hussein

Ivilly Pevilly, is a monumental work that covers Sri Lanka's rich culinary history and heritage from the stone age to the modern era. Well researched and profusely illustrated, the book commences with the diet of Stone Age men and their Veddah descendants before dealing with the origins of the cuisine of various people who have made Sri Lanka their home over the centuries.

The book traces the origins of Sri Lanka's traditional items of food, from their humble beginnings to the manifold influences they were subjected to in the course of their evolution to become what they are today. The author has given even the vernacular terms used to denote particular items of food.

As demonstrated by the author, Sri Lanka is a veritable gourmet Garden of Eden, since it has a great diversity of culinary fare. Sri Lanka has a great variety of food. One reason for this is the island's rich bio-diversity, the diverse flora and fauna, its insular character with easy access to marine food resources, the various communities with their own culinary traditions and manifold foreign influences.

The book is ideal for tourist hotels, libraries and others interested in the rich and diverse cultural heritage of Sri Lanka.
