Local food is expensive and tastes great. Street food, in particular, is pretty safe to eat and can be found anywhere. Whether you're trying kottu or isso wade, you'll be craving for more after your first serve. Sri Lankans love their spice, in fact, they add tons of it into all their curries and main dishes, so if you can't handle spice and chilli, do inform the restaurant owner as you are placing your order. Enjoying street food while you're walking around Galle Face Green has become the trendiest bucket-list things to do in Colombo. Galle Face Green overlooks the Indian Ocean and this is a great view while you're biting into a hot isso wade, i.e. a deep-fried prawn cake (the latter made from lentils).
