Restoran Sri Nirwana Maju’s banana leaf rice consists of piping hot white rice served with an assortment of three vegetables, pickles, curry dishes such as meen kari (fish curry), koli kari (chicken curry), dhal (boiled lentils), as well as papadum (Indian crackers).

Fierce Curry House Bangsar Jalan Kemuja, Bangsar

Fierce Curry House Bangsar is an award-winning Indian restaurant that serves authentically-prepared biryani and banana leaf rice in Kuala Lumpur. Accessible within a five-minute walk from the Bangsar LRT train station, this rather hidden eatery encompasses dishes from all over India, though it’s frequented mostly for its Hyderabad dum biryani, which is a steaming pot of perfectly-seasoned Basmati rice with generous amounts of spices and marinated meat. Also highly recommended is the RM6 banana leaf rice, best paired with chicken tikka masala, mutton varuval and tandoori tiger prawns as side dishes. Meanwhile, diners with a sweet tooth will delight in the roti Nutella, which is a fluffy and buttery flatbread with melted chocolate filling.
