Banana Lane

Ning brought me to HJH Maimunah Restaurant. One chaotic place. It was a buzz with a lunch time crowd. A picture of President Nathan and his entourage sat prominently behind the cashier lending credibility of their fare. Sambal sotong, grilled brinjal, sambal salad and grilled promfret. The taste. Ok lah.

I liked the place, right smack in city with a combination of run down shophouse against a backdrop of high rise offices. The food must be great (or cheap) by the amount of dishes on each table. If you fancy Malay fare, go to Jalan Pisang, a short walk from Bugis. You won't miss it Jalan Pisang is as short as a banana.

Wrap up your meal with a walk around Arab Street and soak in the culture.

Would have posted more pictures if not for the battery. &^%$#*
