Another main attraction everytime we visit Penang is their Nasi Kandar. Line Clear was really awesome and Nasi Kandar Beratur was so-so (we went there for lunch but someone told us the real stuff is at night). But ever since our daughter was born, visiting those places is quite of a hassle due to the cleanliness, heat and space. Thankfully though we were introduced to this new banana leaf rice restaurant by a close friend and not only is the place air-cond and cozy, the food is really great and cheap.
The 1st outlet was opened in Seberang Jaya area and was a hit among the people there. This new outlet is located within New World Park at Penang Island. Passions of Kerala has also been featured extensively in various newspaper.
First up is the rice. You can either choose White Rice (RM5.50) or Tomato Rice (RM6.50) which as usual comes with complimentary vegetables. I love tomato rice. The tomoto rice is done just the way I like it, slightly moist with a slight tinge of sweet smelling spice.
There are of course additional side dishes which you can order. Their most famous dish here would be their Chicken Masala. It is rich in flavor and complemented by a thick flavorful curry sauce. RM6.00 for a small plate which is not small at all.
Not to be beaten would also be their Mutton Masala. Slightly less saucy but delicious nonetheless. RM6.00 for a small plate (which again isn’t very small).
Banana Leaf rice would never be perfect without something fried. The fried bittergourd is something that you’ll need to order. Thinly sliced bittergourd coated and fried in flour. RM6.00 for a medium plate.
With the very reasonable price and uncompromised taste to their food, this is one place that we would always visit whenever we’re up in Penang and we always come out stuffed to the brink due to our greed to down as much to last us till our next visit.
