Eden Park and Yellay Saapad

An authentic south Indian meal is something called a yellay saapad (literally a meal on a leaf.) The best yellay saapad I've had so far is at Eden Park in Bangalore last night.
It starts off with a cut banana leaf which is the plate.




Different curries and condiments are added on the upper half of the banana leaf.


Then comes the rice and you dig in: yummy. It is , of course, best eaten with your bare hands.
