Nasi Daun Pisang

My colleagues and I went to the mamak for lunch yesterday afternoon. This mamak's food is quite nice, in a few months time they are opening another new mamak opposite their current shop. When we were few shop away, walking towards their direction, the mamak ppl started to shout at us.. ah moi, mari.. makan..masuk masuk.. hey boss, sini roti canai ada, nasi beriani ada.. macam macam ada...

hehe, anyway, we stepped in, then my colleague suggested that we go try their newly open mamak, just opposite, so we told the boss we are going opposite. then the ppl start shouting the opposite, of cos they speak in indian lar. i don't understand but i guess it's something like this.. hey, they coming over,faster faster don't let them go to the shop beside.. (there's a malay restaurant beside them.. hehe..)

normally they will first asked, boss minum? then followed by makan? but this mamak, kept promoting their new dish, nasi daun pisang, we got no chance to tell him what we want to eat and what we want to drink. 2 to 3 ppl standing around us kept asking us to try the nasi daun pisang...

here's the conversation between us..
m - mamak, c - us
m: bagus wor, nasi daun pisang, semua orang makan, cuba la.. mesti baik punya...
c: vegetarian ar?
m: vegetarian ada, daging ada, sotong ada..
(we still dono what is this nasi daun pisang)
m: cuba la, nasi daun pisang, bagus wo...
c: .......
m: baik la, cuba lar.. nasi daun pisang...
c: berapa ar..
m: RM3.50 sahaja.. ok ar boss..

then one of my colleague said, ok, actually he's the only one said ok, i'm thinking of eating something else..the mamak ppl super happy when one of my coleague said ok, 1 second later, another guy started to put the daun pisang in front of each of us.... I got this feeling like he's actually forcing us to try the nasi daun pisang, ok lar, nvm lar. try lor..

2 vege, then dhal, then plain rice.
You can add extra dish, but of cos costs more lor..

soup, no idea what is that,
the white one taste like santan that already busuk,
and the yellow one taste like sweet.. yuck..

so how it taste? the soup of cos. not nice lar i didn't touch at all. as for the rice, normal lor just like the normal mixed rice, nothing special lar. just because the rice is on the daun pisang, they called it nasi daun pisang, i wonder whether the daun pisang is being reused or not.. hehe.. where can they get so many daun pisang? RM 3.50 for the nasi daun pisang, i think if normal mixed rice with the exact same dish, probably only costs RM2++..

anyway, i won't stepped into their new mamak already.. cos i dowan to eat the nasi daun pisang again... blek...

i super love daun pisang, i eat b4 at melawati, near mrr2. Very nice.

It is a genunie indian shop. they scoop rice non stop for u until u say stop. Their dish are very nice. But the price quite high ~ rm20 per 2 person. But very good

hehe. and yes you can have unlimited rice and vege..

I like spicy food, but not indian food, probably it's the spices they using, not very used to it...

Indian food is nice, I look at the pics also feel tasty. I went to SS2, 1 mamak res the food is very nice but expensive. The actual location is Rothman roundabt to SS2, go straight instead of turn left to SS2, go till the end turn right go uphill to resident area, 1st row of the shop lot, end unit..a lot of big cars, executives, managers, bosses makan there..because of that, the restaurant chg very high! Of coz, the food is nice lah

Hmm... my colleague last time brough us to one indian shop to eat lunch also. The shop is just oppisite Pudu Raya bus station. My colleague recommanded 'Nasi beyani' dengan ayam madu.. They said very nice but i found out so so only maybe i really dont like the indian taste.

hmm, i once ate in this indian restaurant at mid valley. I'm not sure whether u guys heard b4, you pay according to what you eat. If you think you only eat RM3 food, then you pay RM3, if you think you eat more, then you pay more.. Anyway, i think that one is the real indian food, and i don't really enjoy it.. guess i just dun really like indian food la..
