'Love Bites' at Urban Kitchen
Primarily a family concern, Love Bites, has been gaining popularity
via social media since the commencement of their operations early this
year. Due to the multitude of requests from their patrons they have
taken a leap of faith to open their first outlet at Urban Kitchen.
The brand itself captures the highs and lows of love and caters to
the varying emotions that come with it. The petite store sits nestled in
a cozy corner of Urban Kitchen, which is one of Colombo's largest F&B
hubs. In today's fast paced world of instant gratification, Love Bites
holds steadfastly to old-fashioned concepts with values that are just as
important. Their overarching rational is that if you use wonderful
ingredients you get wonderful food. For that they go the extra mile.
"We are very much a family run operation and were initially nervous
to set up a store. However we find that our customers are patient with
us and never demand the niceties of a large commercial enterprise.
Because at the end of the day what matters is the quality of the treats
we offer on which we strive never to falter". These were the sentiments
of Tanya Goonewardene, one of the co-founders of Love Bites who spends
time and effort coming up with different types of no frill desserts that
allow the taste buds to issue their verdict. Echoing similar sentiments
Buddhike Payoe, who along with Tanya formed Love Bites said, "While we
do have ambitious plans of expanding our reach and product range we are
not in a real hurry. We want to keep our identity as a home baking
outfit concentrating more on delivering high quality products to our
clients."
Love Bites offer an assortment of comfort flavours that are neutral
in their sweetness, from the Dark Chocolate Suicide to the delectable
After Eight Cupcakes. The coffee lover will be delighted at the thought
of the Snow Tip Love Boat and the Tiramisu Cupcake which turns the
traditional Italian dessert on its head. The star among others in the
troupe is the Strawberry Milky Way which is their twist on the American
favourite - TresLeches.
Director of Urban Kitchen, Nihal Hoole, expressed his sentiments
adding that Love Bites is a great fit at UK which is the favorite F&B
hub in the heart of the city. |
