Leaf Meal<br />

Hindus all around the world are preparing for<br />

one of the most important celebrations<br />

in their calendar – Deepavali. In<br />

Malaysia, the festival is to be<br />

held on October 29 and what<br />

better way to usher in the<br />

festival of lights than by<br />

learning or enriching your<br />

knowledge base surrounding<br />

the quintessential Indian meal<br />

customary at homes or<br />

restaurants you may visit to<br />

satiate those curry cravings!<br />

A banana leaf meal will not just blow<br />

your mind. It is a life experience! This<br />

food indulgence comes highly<br />

recommended and one of the reasons for<br />

this is the plate on which it is served – the leaf!<br />

The banana leaf is practical, waterproof, holds a large<br />

amount of food, adds aroma to the food served on it<br />

and it is healthy! There are researches stating that the<br />

leaf contains antioxidants. So, what are you waiting for?<br />

We recommend that you go on an empty stomach and<br />

make the most of this gastronomical adventure because<br />
