Having opened Paradise in Soho at the tail end of 2019, Dom Fernando put Sri Lankan food on London’s culinary map. His restaurant garnered buzz for its Geoffery Bawa-inspired interiors and inventive yet authentic take on Southeast Asian cuisine. Now, following renovation, Fernando is set to delight diners once more with Paradise 2.0: his restaurant reinvented for the post-pandemic age. ‘The industry has changed,’ says the restauranteur and creative director. ‘Guests really want an experience, so we decided to take modern Sri Lankan food and design to the next level.’
