"Every Dish Stunned Us!" | Hidden Beach Gem in Hikkaduwa

📍 Address: 548/1, Galle Road, Wewala, Southern Province (On the main commercial strip – look for the open-air corridor!) 🌿 Vibe: Tucked between souvenir shops and seafood stalls, this unassuming spot hides beachfront tables with toes-in-sand views 🌊✨ But beware: Monsoon rains ⛈️ might send you scrambling indoors! 🛎️ Service & Culture Insight: Staff are attentive (helped customize spice levels!) but turtle-paced – allow 60+ mins for food. 💡 Note: Sri Lanka’s hospitality industry is male-dominated; tipping is optional but appreciated given local wage realities. 🦐 The STAR: "Catch of the Day" Platter (12,000 LKR) ▫️ 1 rock lobster 🦞 ▫️ 2 jumbo tiger prawns ▫️ Crispy squid heads 🦑 ▫️ Fried shrimp + whole grilled fish ▫️ Sides: Potato salad & coleslaw → Fresh, flavorful, and HUGE! 🥤 Drinks: Fresh juices @ 850 LKR (mango > all) 💸 Damage for 4: 30,350 LKR (~700 CNY) Verdict: Pricey but worth every rupee – we left STUFFED! 📝 Pro Tips: Skip the tourist traps – this local joint delivers! Go for individual meals (2,300-4,900 LKR) if sharing platters overwhelm. Sunset slots = golden hour photos + sea breeze 🌅 👉 Menu snapshots with translations attached! #HikkaduwaEats #SriLankaSeafood #BeachBites #HiddenGems #FoodComaApproved #TravelSriLanka
