Nirwana Maju

After meeting my friends, I went over to my sister's place at Damansara Perdana.

Here's the view from the balcony..
view of the opposite condominium..



The next morning, ie last Sunday, we went for banana leaf curry rice in Bangsar.

Restoran Nirwana Maju

a big banana leaf was put in front of me..
then the rice was put on the leaf..

added the dhal..sambal..

curry potatoes..fried brinjal..and a plate of fried squid

Scrumptious..


I wanted to try this special rice for quite some time already 
but I just couldn't find the time..

Finally, I made it!

    You were managed to stay a night at KL, great. Otherwise it would be too tiring to travel back to Ipoh again.
