Singapore's Banana Leaf

“A lot of my old fav Farmer’s Market spots have come and gone but this one is still there. Singapore’s Banana Leaf has been around since 2002 and was started by a family of Iraqi Jews who grew up in Singapore and then relocated to LA in the Fairfax zone. Singaporean food is like a combo of Indonesian, Indian, Malaysian, and southern style Chinese/Hainanese dishes. I can’t speak to the authenticity of the dishes here but I can tell you that every dish is served on a literal banana leaf (dope) and this shit tastes really good. The grilled roti paratha bread dipped in the curry sauce is awesome. The mee goreng (oily stir fried noodles) I fuck with heavily. The chicken satay skewers with peanut sauce - yeah I’m eating those too. It’s on the south-most aisle of the market, closest to 3rd Street. Can take a little while to prepare sometimes but just go to the sticker store.”
