I mean like for real man? Mahal, lousy and nothing like a usual Indian banana leaf meal but can full house during lunch. Really man, i went to a neighbor hood mall and i was surprised to see it packed with a little queue. I mean wtf man, how it became so successful within such a short span of time?

To cater to those who don't know better. The type of people who like gimmicks and shit. Style over substance.

Taste ok, sharing portion price is ok
Actually the price slightly different from mall to another mall laugh.gif

Don't need to give 5 stars out of Five or 2 stars out of Five la. Too extreme

Probably its the hygiene factors that pulls the crowd, given the benefit of doubt (an outlet in mall serving)

I went once based on friend recommendation and will never go again. The moment i walked in already felt something weird, not to be racist.

When you see none of the staff are Indian in a banana leaf shop, you know nothing good will come out.

rice is mushy, curry are cold, chicken dishes like butchered from a 10 days old baby chicken.

mutton varu like 70% bones doh.gif

end up a grand total near to RM80 for 2 pax. I can have better meal at normal nasi kandar at half the price.

Its basically a sanitised, conveniently located banana leaf shop.

People put too much emphasis on something being very tasty but market shows that people are okay settling for a mediocre meal if the place is clean and in a mall where theyre going to do groceries anyway.

It's worth the price I can say. Nothing spectacular but worth your money.

Catered for Malays that want halal food. Their waiters also all same race. Food average. If want banana leaf rice, go find real shop la.

Marketing and fast expansion to attract people.

Full house during lunch doesn't mean they are profiting

Long story short

Malaysians have forgiving taste buds.
