Meat certified sourced from halal places ma. Most nons always think halal only mean pork free. Chicken may also not be halal if not slaughtered in correct way. Veges to if contaminated with non halal ingredients also not halal. Deswai need to certify the kitchen comply with halal practices.

If halal, they have to display the halal cert. Most don't have that cert. Percaya tak?

Logically there shouldn't be any diff in taste la. But the brain is the one which interprets your senses, so you know la, if you think it's unclean, sedap pun jadi macam makan tahi.

Thats why you see crab stew in malay shops.

Fish and sotong no specific way to slaughter via halal method.
So when muslim go to place with dubious halal sources locally overseas just eat seafood or vege eg fish fillet in mcd

Ah OK. So the slaughter process is only for land animals like. Chicken and goat/cow. For fish, no need right ?

Fish & sotong don't have the specific slaughtering process.

Anyway a lot of non-Muslim folks aware what constitutes halal. Even utensils used to cook must not be mixed.

I think the mud crab memang cannot eat. Only sea crab.

Actually mudcrab is damn tasty and full of meat. On the other hand, sea crab is little meat and fragile soft shell

I think need to clarify that halal is two fold

Part 1 how it was slaughtered

Part 2 how it was prepared

Part 1 everyone understands or have an idea
Part 2 sometimes people turn blind eye like the sketchiest of eateries people still go because helmed by muslim proprietor.

Sidetrack,

All the pasar malam, roadside makcik pakcik stalls i think auto halal no need cert also.

The halal cert is not cheap depending on states and more for marketing eg fast moving consumer goods apart from higher end eateries.

99% of Kelantan food outlets probably don't need such certification, I think.

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.

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

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

Prata means to lay it flat.

So meaning the locals at the time choose a word that they can identify with la.

Funny that SG still follows the same as in 50s

Meat certified sourced from halal places ma. Most nons always think halal only mean pork free. Chicken may also not be halal if not slaughtered in correct way. Veges to if contaminated with non halal ingredients also not halal. Deswai need to certify the kitchen comply with halal practices.

So gerai gerai malay that have flies and dirty is not halal right?

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
*
it even comes with a receipt
and yes, i'm shocked when they told me the final price
i only got 1 protein to share, didn't even take like others do

elderly don't even eat BLR at kanna, they just order something like roti with meat in it

so ya, after that i avoid BLR at all cost until i can find a reasonably priced one

Sidetrack,

All the pasar malam, roadside makcik pakcik stalls i think auto halal no need cert also.

The halal cert is not cheap depending on states and more for marketing eg fast moving consumer goods apart from higher end eateries.

99% of Kelantan food outlets probably don't need such certification, I think.

To Muslims if there are too much statues,, lamps or object of worships, it can be considered non halal, thats why Pelita got into trouble 8 years back.

That saying, "when one door closes, another one opens" seems appropriate for Taman Megah.
When Kadei by Manchula shuttered, I thought that's the end of Indian food in that area.

But, lo and behold, Uncle Mani's Banana Leaf Restaurant opened recently, having taken over Nasi Dalca Salsabila's vacated space.
When I spied the modern shop front, I was skeptical, dismissing it as just another ordinary place.

It took a friend's recommendation to get me to step into the place.
The restaurant traces its origins to Bukit Rimau, Shah Alam. This is their second outpost.

Their banana leaf rice set (RM9.90) is served with your choice of rice, four types of vegetables, curries of your choice, pappadum, chutney and dried chillies.
My choice of rice is usually parboiled. It's not the fluffiest but at least I don't fall into a stupor after eating my lunch.

Most places tend to serve pretty generic vegetables. The vegetable dishes here are simple and wholesome, making it different from the usual places.
The shredded cabbage still had a slight crunch with the distinct flavour of cumin seeds, making it a refreshing bite.

You also get a soft gourd vegetable and the requisite cucumber dish. Here the cucumbers are softened in the yoghurt, giving you a nice refreshing taste.
I was excited to see deep fried bitter gourd but that was the weakest link here. The greens were overshadowed by the thick coating of batter, which wasn't totally crunchy either.

If you want to "banjir" your rice, select from the fish curry, chicken curry and dhal. For the indecisive, go for all three for your own unique blend.
My pick has to be the thick dhal laden with vegetables like chunks of pumpkin and brinjal. From what I understand from my friend, they also serve dhal with sweet potato leaves, which is a homestyle dish.

On its own, the set is great to feed you well with the generous portions of vegetables.

Since there were four of us, we shared a couple of side dishes. You can either order from the menu or walk to the counter to check out the cooked dishes available for the day.

You do have fried chicken at the counter but since that was pre-fried, I opted for their Chicken 65 (RM8.50) which is prepped only when it is ordered.
It was the right move as the chunks of chicken were juicy and tasty with a little calamansi juice squeezed over it.

There's other fried items like fish, squid, prawns and vegetables too.
We couldn't decide which mutton dish so we went for both.
user posted image
The Mutton Curry (RM12) was tender pieces but served with very little curry though so one couldn't add it to the rice. I preferred the Mutton Varuval (RM12) as it had a much deeper taste from the spices and cooked onions used.
user posted image
There's also Pepper Chicken (RM8) where you get chunks of chicken drenched in a mild peppery sauce. What I liked was how the meat still retained its juicy texture.
Lastly, I chose the Beetroot Poriyal (RM2.80) or stir fried beetroot with coconut and spices. The vegetable isn't too earthy and nice to eat on its own.

Overall, the dishes are for those who prefer milder heat with their Indian food. You can ask for dried chillies if you want a bit more kick.

The menu here also has nasi lemak, biryani rice, From 12pm to 3pm, you can also order thosai,various roti and chapati. I'm eyeing the appam for my next visit since it's a favourite of mine. You also have murtabak, kothu parotta and various fried noodles and rice.

In the evening, starting from 3pm, there's the flavourful claypot rice or satti sorru; there are six types from chicken, fish, squid and even a vegetarian one.

Uncle Mani's Banana Leaf Rice,
No. 90, Jalan SS24/2,
Taman Megah, Petaling Jaya.

If halal, they have to display the halal cert. Most don't have that cert. Percaya tak?

Most Malays take it on trust. Like how most Malay vendors are not halal certified themselves.

Indians don't usually eat pork. Most meat suppliers in this country are halal.

BLR have no reason to use non-halal ingredients. But most will fail certification cos kitchen not clean enough lol. Many Malay vendors will fail for that reason too.
