Our Story Begins in the South

DAKUNU RASA was founded by M. Malani, who has over 40 years of experience in the Southern Sri Lankan food industry. What began as beloved family recipes prepared in a humble kitchen has grown into a brand that celebrates the authentic flavors and traditions of the South.

Every product we make carries the warmth and bold flavors of southern Sri Lanka — the heat of chilies, the aroma of spices — lovingly crafted with locally sourced ingredients and time-honored methods.

Preserving heritage, one recipe at a time — for over 40 years.

Our Recipes

Every creation at Dakunu Rasa reflects the authentic flavors of the South. We use carefully selected natural ingredients, collaborate with trusted local farmers, and honor time-honored traditions in every step — from cooking to packaging.

We believe every dish should tell a story — a story of home, family, and the land.

Our Taste & Promise

Dakunu Rasa is more than flavor — it’s an experience. Our products are crafted to bring the true essence of southern Sri Lankan cuisine to your table, with consistency, authenticity, and love.

We promise that everything leaving our kitchen reflects tradition, quality, and the spirit of southern hospitality.

Why Dakunu Rasa?

Because every item we make brings you closer to the true flavor of the south. We pick natural ingredients, partner with local farmers, and keep tradition in every step — from cooking to packaging.
