Xilaton, is a unique and unexpected name for a Chinese restaurant. There is no eye catching decor, just simple tables in an ordinary surrounding. However, the food is the main attraction here and it is good. For appetizers we had egg rolls, buttered mushrooms and battered shrimp. All of it superb. For the mains, Groupa in black bean sauce, a spicy chicken item and bean curds in a sauce. Every dish was well prepared to impart taste and texture. Vegetable fried rice and vegetable noodles also came to the table. Both of these were fantastic, in their own right. For dessert, some had lychee or ice cream only. I had to have one of my all time Sri Lankan favorites - fresh fruit salad with vanilla ice cream (heavenly).
