Banana Leaf - Vancouver, Canada
green papaya mango kerabu |
It was a hot day (for Vancouver standard, I guess) but inside the building was cool. There were big windows so the air circulate. The place was nice and cozy. We looked through the menu and decided on pumpkin curry ( I was trying to bring back part of my vegetarian life), green papaya and mango kerabu and seafood nasi lemak. Hubby chose an iced calamansi which I wrongly communicated to our waitress. But later on she was nice enough to come back and told me that calamansi is better served cold instead of hot. I don’t know what’s wrong with me that day. What I thought and what came out of my mouth was different. Yikes !
Anyhow, our food came out and we started digging in. The nasi lemak looked sad actually. The amount of food didn’t quite match the big plate that it was on. The surprise came from the mango papaya kerabu which tasted pretty similar to the Thai papaya salad but less spicy. It had a nice refreshing citrusy combination of shredded papaya, young mango with just a bit tanginess of citrus background dressing. I would definitely order this again next time.
