♥ Banana Leaf introduces Malaysian, Singaporean, Thai, Vietnamese and Indonesian cuisine to the Filipinos. It is best known for its Malayan Chicken Curry and its Roti and Bread Specialties. The native banana leaf was being used as a plate during your dine-in. I find this beautiful to see fresh green leafs on a table like this in the Metro. The resto crew were also adorable, as they are in Kimonos (*if i’m not mistaken) and greets their customers with their pearly whites.
Branch Explored: TRINOMA
Must try:
We ordered the following dishes, and I must say that they are really awesome if not good.
Dish # 1 : Penang Char Kway Teow – P188.00
♫ I’m not sure what made up this dish, but I guarantee you that it tastes really great. The noodles are soft with a little sweet chili taste.
Dish # 2 : Deep Fried Squid Flavored in Homemade Spicy Garlic - P 228.00
♫ The dip was a bit spicy that’s why I enjoy it without the sarsa. Its crispiness stays which makes it yummier.
Dish # 3 : Stir Fried Clams in Singaporean Chili Sauce – P228.00
♫ This dish is so classy. The sauce with chili flavored make it even tastier and a good match for the fried rice. Good job Chef!
Dish # 4 : Malayan Chicken Curry with Potatoes – P 228.00
♫ Not my type since I don’t really eat Chicken Curry (from whatever Resto, indeed). So I don’t want to be biased here. But then, as I mentioned above, Banana Leaf is known for this plate.
I failed to get the pictures of the next dishes, so forgive me. 
Dish # 5 : Roti Canai – P 78.00
♫ This however may not be considered a dish but more of an appetizer for me. Its like a tortilla with a creamy, cheesy-chili dip. Nice.
Dish # 6 : Charcoal Grilled Sliced Pork Steak Thai Style – P 228.00
♫ Its like a hamon of the Filipinos except that it has a dip. A good match for the rice. But for me, its better without that kinda chilly (for the nth time) dip.
Dish # 7 : Nasi Goreng Nenas – P 188.00
♫ A delicious mixed fried rice. We empty the two plates, so I guess its more of delicious.
A-Notes:
1. Its nice to be with friends or families when you dine in to this restaurant since the foods served per plate are goood for 2-3 people already.
2. Prices are reasonable for an elegant and refined dishes served by the resto.
3. Banana leaves- cause you’re going to eat on a real Banana Leaf.
4. They have bottomless iced teas which is wonderful to uneven your thirst for the spices.
5. Good ambiance. -for Trinoma Branch, no idea with the other branches yet
