In a delightful fusion of Sri Lankan flair and Chennai’s vibrant nightlife, Uncle’s Colombo made a memorable debut at Madras Cocktail Company (MadCo) in Gopalapuram, Chennai. This one-night-only event, dubbed "Serendip – Be The Change," was more than just a pop-up; it was a celebration of culture, community, and cocktails with a conscience.
A Night of Cultural Fusion
On October 15, 2025, the usually discreet MadCo opened its doors to a special evening where Colombo’s favorite bar, Uncle’s, took over the establishment. The collaboration was more than a mere guest shift; it was an immersive experience that blended Sri Lankan hospitality with Chennai's eclectic charm.
The event featured a curated menu of signature cocktails crafted by the talented team from Uncle’s Colombo. Guests were treated to innovative drinks that showcased the rich flavors of Sri Lanka, such as the pandan-infused "Rampe" and the sandalwood-scented "Lansiya." These cocktails were complemented by a selection of Sri Lankan-inspired appetizers, offering a taste of the island's culinary delights.
Cocktails for a Cause
True to the spirit of giving back, the event was organized in partnership with the "Be The Change Foundation." A portion of the proceeds from the evening was donated to support the foundation's initiatives aimed at empowering underprivileged communities in Sri Lanka. This collaboration highlighted the power of hospitality to effect positive change, turning a night of indulgence into an opportunity for social impact.

Guests were not just patrons; they were participants in a larger movement to make a difference.
The evening was a testament to the potential of cross-cultural collaborations in the hospitality industry. By bringing together the best of Colombo and Chennai, the event not only offered a unique culinary experience but also fostered a sense of community and shared purpose.
Looking Ahead
The success of "Serendip – Be The Change" has set a precedent for future collaborations between Uncle’s Colombo and MadCo.
