One day around lunch time, I received a call from a friend. She invited hubby and I to join her and a friend for lunch at Vighna Bamboo Briyani. Since we just had our lunch, we declined and thanked her for her invitation. I told her that since she enjoyed the food so much, we will go the next day. True to our words, we were there for lunch the next day with 2 other friends.
I happened to be seated opposite this "Love" sign hanging on the wall.
The ladies ordered mango lassi while the men had plain water.
We ordered 2 types of Bamboo briyani for us to share.
This was how it was served.
Out came the nasi briyani wrapped with banana leaf.
Chicken briyani.
Fish briyani
Cucumber raita (cucumber with yogurt).
4 pieces of fried chicken.
Total bill for the above items came to RM63.00 for 4 people.
Payment counter.
Interior.
We were early and ahead of the lunch crowd.

The following photos were taken at a fried noodle shop where we had dinner one evening.
Flower horn fish.
We were seated near to this fish tank.
Flower horn fish is believed to bring good luck to its owner. This fish has a lifespan of 10 to 12 years. Flower horn fish is aggressive and if released to the wild, they become invasive pests.
Linking to Saturday's Critters.
And even we Christians, although
we have the Holy Spirit within us as a foretaste of future glory,
also groan to be released from pain and suffering.
We, too, wait anxiously for that day when God will give us
our full rights as his children, including the new bodies he has
promised us - bodies that will never be sick again and will never die.
(Romans 8:23, The Living Bible-TLB)
Biriyani is quite popular here, but bamboo biriyani is not commonly available.
ReplyDeleteBamboo briyani is the new thing in town.
DeleteThank you Nancy for introducing this eatery with briyani rice in bamboo. The Fish & Chicken Nasi Briyani At Vighna Bamboo Briyani looks special as it is served in a bamboo. Do you like the taste of the cucumber yogurt? I must read up more info about the Flowerhorn fish.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mun. I am ok with the cucumber yogurt.
DeleteEating rice in banana leaves is really delicious, we eat that too.
ReplyDeleteThe cafeteria looks cozy.
Greetings Irma
Thank you, Irma.
DeleteBamboo biryani! Never seen this before. I wish I could try that - it looks so good!!!
ReplyDeleteThe difference is the bamboo but you still get the same briyani without the bamboo. Lol.
DeleteIt looks like a very delicious meal!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angie.

Thank you, Paul. Yes, it does.
DeleteNancy, I was curious to know how nasi briyani rice is made and I see that it is a very tasty and perfumed rice due to the variety of spices it has.
ReplyDeleteYes, Norma. That is why I love nasi briyani.
DeleteLove the Love sign! As for the dishes, I'll have either cucumbers with yogurt or fried chicken (I don't eat meat and dairy together).
ReplyDeleteThank you, Duta.
DeleteNo question life is life full steam of adventure.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
Thank you, Dora.
DeleteI don't know of anyone down this way that use banana leaves for cooking as we don't have them and they would have to be imported. Your drinks look good.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Margaret. Banana leaves is easily available here.
DeleteYes, kind of special though... Now looking forward to trying other places :)
ReplyDeleteYes, looking forward to try new places.
