By working in this area for long time, and whenever my colleague craving for banana leaf rice, we would always end up in Kanna Curry House which located in Section 17.
Be advise to come here earlier to avoid crazy crowd and also parking problems. Most of them would double park and parking would be havoc especially if you do come on Friday lunch time.
An array of curry dishes for you to choose or hunt. If not those server will bring a tray and walk around while you can choose from it.
Some of my colleague love their deep fried squid and fried chicken which you can pick from this area. Fried fresh.
Each table is placed with 3 different types of curry. From fish, to classic dal and chicken curry.
They used to serve banana leave rice on a actual banana leave as over the years they have change the gimmick to synthetic paper. An order of Banana Leaf rice is serve with rice, and 3 sides at the side which is usually minty cucumber, mix vegetable and special sauce bitter gourd (each outlet varies in items)
Another traditional method for you to dine is by using your hand. Soup is another version that you can extra order.
I find this place is totally overrated and of course they still do have their regular lovers like my colleagues. Sri Suria still remains one of my favourite which located at SS1.
Now eating banana leaf rice is no longer cheap. It easily cost from RM 8 – RM 30 per person depending on what items you add on.
