The last time\u00a0<em>Broadsheet<\/em>\u00a0visited, one bloke in the queue was hurriedly buying 10 of them, clearly anxious to get his order in before supplies ran out.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Colombo is disarmingly matter of fact about why his curries are so good, putting it down to the fact he \u201ccooks with love\u201d \u2013 although, with a twinkle in his eye, he does admit it might also have something to do with the way he fastidiously home-blends his spices to create flavours that \u201cno one else knows about\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Colombo started working as a cook in Sri Lanka when he was 16 years old; he emigrated to Perth in 2006 after marrying his Australian wife, Laurel, who runs the kiosk alongside him. Before taking over the kiosk, Colombo spent many years helming a stall at the Fremantle Markets and running a food truck. Now with Laurel by his side, the kiosk is a true family affair with their three teenaged children pitching in at weekends.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Laurel deserves a hefty share of the credit for our favourite dish on the menu: the utterly joyful giant samosas. While Colombo conjures up the filling, packing it with fresh methi (fenugreek) leaves and coriander seeds, it\u2019s Laurel who lovingly wraps it with a quintessentially Aussie crust \u2013 something you\u2019d normally find on a meat pie, not a samosa. The delicious coming together of South Asian spice and homely Australian pastry is beautifully unpretentious and entirely unexpected \u2013 just like discovering excellent Sri Lankan curry at a West Australian beachside kiosk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;
