Enjoy Appuhamy lanka

Appuhamy uncle was booked on a flight to London from Colombo.

But as this was his first time in an aeroplane, he made a few preparations that were out of place.

When the stewardess came around to take orders for the in-flight meal,  Appuhamy uncle declared loudly,

"I have brought my own lunch. Make sure you don't charge me for food and drinks!"

So, as everybody was given their in-flight meal, the uncle began spreading out his own home-cooked meal.

The passenger sitting next to him was an English history researcher, who was curious about the food.

"Excuse me, but what is that drink?" he asked.

Appuhamy uncle picked up the yoghurt-based lassi drink and said,"That is Milk of Lanka!"

Then the uncle tookout Kiribath and started feasting.

"And what is that dish?" asked the curious Englishman.

"Rice of Lanka!" replied Appuhamy uncle proudly.

Finally, the uncle took out some Wattalapam desserts. He offered some to the Englishman.

"What is this called?" asked the Englishman.

"Sweet of Lanka!" replied Appuhamy uncle.

After the meal, everyone was settling down to a good snooze when there was a loud "Phoooooooottt!" from Appuhamy uncle, and the air was perfumed with an evil scent.

"What in the world was that?" asked the Englishman, wrinkling his nose in disgust.

Appuhamy uncle replied loftily,

"That is Air Lanka!"
