BaNaNa Leaf Rice

Nasi Kandar and banana leaf rice - favorites!! Definitely we would prefer banana leaf rice cause nasi kandar is known for its "cleanliness". There's only one place that we would go to for banana leaf rice.

PASSIONS of KERALA which is located in New World Park, Penang.

This is how the shop looks like...(just in case) you decided to go there after reading my blog.  :)

The rice set comes with banana leaf as the plate and 4 side dishes, which is usually vegetarian dishes, and it varies all the time. 

But there's only a few dishes that we would always order. 

The fried bitter gourd. Although we seldom eat bitter gourd, this happens to be our all time favorite. It's a must-have dish.

Fried chicken. This is also another must-have dish. Both Bella & Belle will never say no to this dish.

I also ordered fried fish. Which is just ok. 

We didn't order a lot cause only me and Dallon were eating. Bella had her lunch in school because it was her last day in school that day. Usually I would order mutton curry and chicken curry and stuff myself crazy but then, we still have to save some space for our tummy cause there's still lots of food on out waiting list that we have to eat before we go over to Singapore.

This is how we enjoy our banana leaf rice. With our hands.  :)   Delicious isn't it?

This is how one should fold the banana leaf after the meal. (**I forgot which way - either fold upwards or downwards) This is to show that we enjoyed the meal. 

**If I'm not mistaken, there's a meaning to the way we fold the leaf after our meal. One shows that we enjoyed the meal and another shows that we are not happy with it. So, if you're unsure, after your meal just tell them that the food was great. Simple and easy.   :D

All in all, this is definitely the best place if you want to eat banana leaf rice. The environment is great, parking is easy and the most important thing  ------>  the food is GOOD!

We will definitely be there again on our next trip back to Penang.
