Banana Leaf: because I don’t need a plate

I live in a predominantly Indian neighbourhood in Kuala Lumpur. That means that yes, there are tons of restaurants around, but almost every one of them is Indian. This is completely fine with me. I loved Indian food before I came here, and KL certainly hasn’t changed my mind. If anything, I won’t know what else to eat when I return to Canada.

An important staple of my Indian diet is banana leaf. You get this big banana leaf that you use in place of a plate; a guy comes around with a bowl full of rice and a couple buckets of vegetables and curry. Frickin’ awesome.

It’s also nice that in the video I suddenly start laughing and spew rice all over. Flattering.
