cultural appropriation....?

Lol can

As long they don't claim its malay dish, then should be fine la.

I just cringe if suddenly thosai becomes a new name. Just like roti canai. Originally it is roti prata (same name in India and SG). Funny that even SG didn't claim and change roti prata name

Generally those more Hindu based can consider non halal lor. Those with patung and so on.
But 1 thing for sure, the banana leaf in those places much better than the 'halal' ones.

IMO if BLR not served by anneh in white shirt and dhoti, that is not real BLR

Where got nice banana leaf meal at Penang. Usually nasi kandar a lot.

Aiyo where u eat?

For me & my BLR addict, two rice set & two dish eg lamb or fried fish and teh tarikx2 no more than

Sri Nirwana, Taipan RM50
Kanna, PJ or Puchong RM45
Top Curry, Seremban RM40
SriDevi, Bukit Mertajam RM35

Got yogurt or not jibai

the infamous kanna

and those others took those side dishes like nothing
so anyone who ate BLR surely not B40 already

There is a Mamak BLR (Rest AL-AYMAN) at Bandar Saujana Putra, very nice food.

Which ine is top curry, same row as hj sharif?

Kanna best I've had is manjalara. Just went there yesterday.

considered cheap food, wait till you enter restoran Bombay palace or passage to india

I think Kanna miscalculated already for you unless you ordered more

Two rice set + one protein is roughly 30+
Plus 2 drinks max 40+

Won't reach 60+

Next time can ask cashier give breakdown if the amount abnormal

Ah kanna lol. I avoid them at all cost

if you ate in Nirwana Taipan before, you should try out Canai 15 Cafè @ SS14
that price like bananaleafbro but as good as Nirwana back before they changed management. Nirwana nowadays sucks, run by banglas. ate there 2 months ago, paid MYR 83 for 2 pax meal, 1 chicken and 1 mutton, lassi x2. papadam was soft, asked for refill of vege, they charge me extra MYR10

I wonder how it become roti canai. It's like more than 30 years ago it was roti canai. who introduced that particular term? 30 years ago mostly mamak restaurant sell it.

Maybe one mamak popularize the term and spread out.

That's why familymart went the halal route. More money. They willing to forgo the measly profit from alcohol sales.

I have no idea also. I guess perhaps they dont know how to explain prata.

Prata means to lay it flat.

Their lassi expensive, didn't know vege refill chargeable now, thanks.

Will look for Canai15

Possibly. the flipping of the dough is canai. Hence roti canai.

Canai got another meaning fyi.
