Curries, hoppers, buttery fish buns, and more standout Sri Lankan food is hiding in plain sight at a Los Angeles corner store (Via EaterLA)
Walk into Baja Subs Market & Deli in Northridge and you’ll find the sandwiches, groceries, and tacos, as well as fridges full of Arizona iced tea and beer that you would expect at any corner store. The menu on the back wall offers a variety of tacos and burritos, and at lunchtime, you’d see workers might be plating carne asada with rice and beans — nothing out of a place that says it’s a Mexican grill on the outdoor signage.
Considering how difficult it is to find Sri Lankan food in the area — a handful of Sri Lankan places in LA are scattered through the San Fernando Valley — Baja Subs gets customers from all over Southern California. In recent months, Premil has delivered all the way to San Diego and Lancaster. While Baja Subs doesn’t do delivery, if a customer over 50 lives within five miles of the store, Premil will personally drive over the food so they don’t have to go outside.
