Lunch @ around Galle Fort

Galle - Lunch around Galle was a disaster.   We walked to this restaurant called 'Coconut Sambol' it was such a small restaurant that had only about 3 tables and it was buffet for about SGD8 per person. Very cheap but unfortunately the lunch buffet was not ready and we had to wait for 15 minutes.  I decided to wait since the reviews were good.

very small restaurant 

I wanted to use the toilet and had to walk into their house through their kitchen.   The lunch was left un covered  and was not appetising to me anymore.

We walked and found a row of restaurants and decided to try 'The Hammock Restaurant'.  

The Hammock Restaurant

We ordered Grilled Fish and Grill jumbo prawns since Sri Lanka is famous for their seafood.

Grilled Jumbo Prawns

We ate the 4 Jumbo prawns it was ok..

Grilled Fish

Why add sauce on a grilled fish? a red flag to me.   I cut open and tasted and the fish was bad as it was  frozen thawed for a long time and they used the sauce to masked the rotting smell.   I told the waiter and he apologise and quickly took away the fish.   He does not seem surprise and offered a replacement with Jumbo prawns and a 10% discount.

The 2nd jumbo prawns was bad and rotten as I could not pick the meat up from the shell, the flesh just broke off into bits.   I was disgusted, just paid and left hungry.
