夏はカレーということで、たびたびランチで訪れる金沢の「スリランカキッチン」。
場所は金沢21世紀美術館前の柿木畠、観光客で溢れかえる甘味処「つぼみ」の直ぐ近くです。
店内に入って真っ先に目に入るのが、スリランカにあるコロンボ国立博物館の収蔵品の中で最も重要な文化財の仏像で、観音菩薩像の傑作といわれる「アヌラーダプラ、ヴェヘラガラの観音菩薩像」を完全再現したレプリカ。
アヌラーダプラといえば、中学の地理の時間に習ったスリランカ文化三角地帯の中心的な都市です。
そんなの知らないという方はもう一度中学生に戻って勉強し直してください。
(文化三角地帯って言葉、懐かしすぎる)
この仏像は、スリランカの最初の首都であった聖地アヌラーダプラから25km離れたヴェヘラガラの仏教寺院で1968年に発見されました。
9世紀頃に造られた金銅の鋳造物で全高49.8cm、精巧に編まれた「ジャタマクタ」という髪型で、その髪には宝石がはめ込まれており目も宝石の玉眼、シンプルな苦行服で「ラジャリラサナ」(通称:王家の安らぎ)という日本でもよく知られた水月観音と同じ楽座姿で表現されています。
多分、金沢の飲食店の中で最もクーラーが効いているのではかと���うくらいに涼しい店内なので、辛いカレーを食べて汗だくになっても何の問題もないユーザーフレンドリーなお店です。
見たところ、店員さんは全員現地スリランカ人のようですが、南インドの料理もあります。
スパイスたっぷりの美味しいカレーに、飲み干すのが大変なカルピスの原液のような甘さのラッシー。
近くにはインド系の姉妹店「スパイスボックス」があり、ホームページは両店とも常に「メンテナンス中です」と表示されますが(笑)、お店は毎日絶好調で営業中です。

...or interact with them (e.g. Ireland following Wisps, England meeting Hecate, America running from the Dullahan/Headless Horseman).
Doing both is also an option (e.g. human Lithuania interacting with rusalka Belarus).
