Look for the ones with long lines of locals, not just tourists. Freshly cooked stuff is safer. Busy = good sign usually. Start small portions if you're unsure.
Yeah busy local spots are usually fine. Avoid anything sitting out too long. Most people eat it without issues.
Scam Watch: galle
Someone befriends you and offers a "once in a lifetime" opportunity to buy gems at wholesale prices and resell them abroad for huge profit. They may show you fake export certificates. The gems are worthless glass or low-quality stones.
Restaurants without visible prices. Bill arrives with inflated charges (500 LKR coconut becomes 1500 LKR). "Service charges" added without disclosure.
