Been meaning to try out that place but.....oh well....only recently did we managed to drop by. Kinda secluded. It's operating from a Bungalow right opposite the road from MAHSA.
One set of Banana Leaf Rice(BLR) cost RM5. Quite cheap as compared to others nearby there. Moreover it comes with 5 types of vegetable and heard that on certain days they have more than 5 type of vegetable.
Mamarazzi loves the way they cooked the vegetables. Suit her taste well. But the curry can be a bit fiery . So if you can't stand too much of spiciness, do watch out. Spicy but nice.
Had chicken Varuval. Forgotten how much was that but taste good enough. Meat was tender and well marinated.
Two days later, we came here again with my Kaw Kaw. This time they had fried chicken to go with the BLR. Hmm....not bad. Mamarazzi like it coz the chicken meat doesn't have blood coming out when she cut it. Sometimes when she had fried chicken in BLR, the meat would still be reddish though it's well cooked. Might be due to frozen chicken meat or something
Anyway....Papa ordered Manggo lassi.
Taste good. RM5 only leh for such a big glass.
Hey! wait up....I managed to get their brochures. The BLR only available day time from 11.30am to 3pm. Then evening they will serve, Western and local favorites like nasi lemak, iddiyapam, Mutton Burger and etc.

DeleteFood looks good, especially the mango lassi. Let me look up where this place is as I don't know Mahsa.
ReplyDeleteyes the food and drinks suit our taste
DeleteI have never heard of banana leaf rice before! I have only tried white and brown rice...and wild rice, too. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's called Banana Leaf rice coz they put the rice on top of the banana leaf instead of on top of a plate.
DeleteThe rice will be either white rice or parboiled rice :)
Mango lassi!! Looks so thick n nice... Oh, i miss the curry and u lau hau sui the knuckles... So we are even!! 😊😊😊
ReplyDeletehahaha...ya lor...tham sum wanna eat this and that
DeleteI do not like spicy food, hurts my stomach
ReplyDeleteyes, some people cant take spicy food. But over here we are accustomed to it already :)
DeleteI love banana leaf!!

ReplyDeletequite near your office leh. can go there for BLR n friday coz longer lunch hour right. hahaha
Deletewah.. BLR (Banana Leaf Rice) for BLR (Banyak Like Rice), dining in the verandah of an old colonial bungalow.. must be some kind of good experience, no wonder Mamarazzi would go there again for a second visit in several days!! :)
ReplyDeleteBLR not Banyak lagi rice ka LOL...go la one of these days
Deleteonly RM5 for a BBLR (basic BLR), and was Mamarazzi lucky enough to be there on a day they serve more than 5 veggie?? eih, Uncle SK seldom eat BLR and actually doesn't know the price la, but talk about "chap fan" then he roughly knows lah, muahahaha!!!
ReplyDeleteRM5 kira cheap lo...most now are RM5.50 RM6 and a certain restaurant even charging R<10 per set on weekends. Weekdays RM7 per set.
DeleteSo when see this one only RM5 plus the food was good....if course go again la.
For BLR is most important is the curry la. If curry ngum the taste then the BLR will taste good
looks good leh, Uncle SK sure cannot be satisfied with just the veggie only, but will sure order one meat.. the fried chicken seems like a good idea for him.. and then the mango lassi at only RM5 for that huge size, cheap leh.. okay, so already know what to order next time going there!! hehehe~~
ReplyDeleteyes fried chicken was tasty. They goreng it fresh
DeleteYour mama know what to do when i go over, wink wink...
ReplyDeletelike that you have to stay in Malaysia for a year lor....so many things to eat here leh
DeleteI like the Manggo lassi....
ReplyDeleteme too :)
DeleteGlad you liked it. Will definitely have to go back again at some point...
ReplyDeleteThanks once again.
DeleteThe second time we went there..a man informed my kae kae that they started business 2mths ago. Weird. Maybe change of management kot. Food wise taste good la.
I super like BLR too. So did you eat the BLR using just your hand anot?
ReplyDeleteIMe and Papa did but Mamarazzi used fork and spoon
DeleteFried chicken, huh? And I thought that was a Southern dish! Guess it's popular all over the world!
ReplyDeleteLOL...yea...taste very good too
DeleteBanana leaf rice is my top favorite when going out to makan. I usually go to Krishna Curry House at Sungai Way.
ReplyDeletenever been there. Maybe one of these days will go and try :)
Deletewith 5 types of vegetable RM5 is very reasonable..
ReplyDeleteyes...it is . And what is more important is that the taste suited us.
DeleteThat bungalow like going to someone's house like that! Price reasonable and the food looks good.
ReplyDeletethere are a row of old bungalows there. a lot abandoned. Nice to see that they are using this bungalow
DeleteI like the drinks leh, like so filling one, but can have without ice one? You know la, girls mah! Hehe!
ReplyDeletecan.... it's up to individual choice.
DeleteHardly find delicious banana leaf now. We love it especially the chat nie
ReplyDeleteyea....especially missed the mango chutney; Have not find it at UMAC yet/. Hope one of these days they will have mango chutney
DeleteThe Mango Lassi sounds really good. I love mangos but sometimes they are way too sweet for my body.
ReplyDeleteoh...i thought natural sweetness is okay as long as not sugar. Maybe can add stevia
DeleteInteresting though I never knew of this place but always around this area. Gonna try for sure.
ReplyDeleteyes, must try. Think this will suit your taste too
DeleteMarked for tomorrow evening. See if happens.
ReplyDeleteany result?
DeleteFavourited! I will make my way there one of these days! ^.^
