The Snack

The Snack is a small restaurant in the hear of Negombo that caught our attention, because it was full of locals, in the middle of this tourist paradise of consumerism known as Negombo. We went to eat there a few times, prices are almost half of the those in neighboring restaurants for the same plates, but with western décor. The chef cooks outside and you can watch him prepare hoppers, a favorite dish of the country, which are like crepes shaped like a bowl, with an egg in the background. It often accompanies the main dishes. They serve some cold drinks, but not beer. You can ask to go and eat at the nearby beach or eat at the tables outside because there is no room inside.
