Netizens describe their best version of a banana leaf meal


Mix and match: A banana leaf meal is put together with your choice of curry, meat dishes, vegetables, and the additional side servings of 'rassam', 'thairu' and achar, among other things.

WHAT makes a good banana leaf meal? Is it the variety of curries? Value for money? Good service? Cleanliness of the eatery?
