From the soft and flavourful idlis to the aromatic curries and delectable desserts and not to forget the quintessential South Indian filter coffee, Banana Leaf offers an authentic dining experience for the food enthusiasts in Jaipur, all at an affordable price.
South Indian cuisine, with its diverse flavours and healthy options, has always been a favourite among people of all ages and dietary preferences. While Jaipur has had a few well-established South Indian restaurants, recent offerings have left food enthusiasts disappointed due to high prices, inconvenient locations, and subpar service. However, there is now a promising addition to the culinary landscape of the Pink City as Banana Leaf, a renowned and award-winning South Indian fine dining restaurant has recently opened its doors.
Located in the heart of the city’s most premium and easily accessible location – Mahavir Marg at C-Scheme, Banana Leaf offers an authentic South Indian culinary experience. Banana Leaf, with its establishment in 2006 and multiple branches across Mumbai, Pune, and Indore, has built a loyal following over the years. Now, the food enthusiasts of Jaipur can experience the authentic and unique flavours that Banana Leaf is famous for, at an affordable price.
From the iconic Mulgai Idli, known for its soft texture and served with delectable sambar, to the flavourful and fiery Guntur Idli, there is a wide variety of idlis to choose from. Those seeking a unique culinary experience can savour Thatte Idli, a flat and delicate rice cake. For Wada lovers, Banana Leaf offers the irresistible Onion Wadai made with onions, lentils, and spices, as well as the healthy Palak Wadai, prepared with spinach, lentils, and spices. Dosa lovers must sample the Bangalore masala dosa or the Rajani dosa. The butter soft uttapam as well as the podi oonion uttapam seem promising too.
In the main course, guests can delight their taste buds with the aromatic Malabar Curry, a coconut-based curry from the Malabar region, or indulge in the savoury Mushroom Sukka, a dry dish made with mushrooms, roasted spices, and coconut. The culinary journey continues with Neer Dosa, a thin and delicate rice crepe perfect for savouring curries and chutneys. Another interesting option to pair with the curries is Idiyappam, which are steamed rice noodles.
For those who prefer to eat rice, Banana Leaf presents the Dakshin Biryani, a fragrant and flavorful rice dish prepared with a blend of spices and an array of vegetables. Another option is the wholesome Bisse Balle Baath, a traditional Karnataka dish made with rice, lentils, and vegetables, offering a balanced and satisfying meal. Wash it down with a glass of flavourful masala chaas.
To complete the culinary experience, Banana Leaf offers refreshing Filter Coffee, a strong and aromatic coffee brewed in a traditional South Indian filter. For those with a sweet tooth, the delightful Yalneer Payassam awaits—a creamy rice pudding flavored with cardamom and garnished with nuts.
Talking about the initiative, Nandan Honawar, Partner, Indus Foods said: “We are delighted to bring the flavours and culture of South India to Jaipur. Banana Leaf is committed to delivering an authentic dining experience that showcases the culinary heritage of South India. We look forward to serving the people of Jaipur with our distinctive menu and warm hospitality.”
The ambiance of Banana Leaf in Jaipur caters to various preferences and occasions. Whether guests prefer the charm of outdoor seating or the comfort of the indoor dining area, they are sure to find the perfect spot. For those seeking an exclusive experience, Banana Leaf also provides a private dining room, ideal for special celebrations and gatherings. The decor and staff uniforms, representing the traditions of Southern India, add an extra touch of authenticity to the overall dining experience.
