Honestly at the time it felt like it yeah. A few things contributed to both the price and us settling for it - after driving all day, most restaurants we tried to stop at were closed. This one was right across the road from the turtle rehab places just before Hikkaduwa. I assume they have a menu for tourists and a menu for locals. We usually would turn around and walk out based on those prices but after not finding anywhere open that we wanted to stop at… we just took what we could get. Looking back on it in a much less hungry state than we were then… I wish we said no to them hahah 😂
