Amidst PJ's many banana leaf rice restaurants, Kanna Curry House holds its own with a favoured reputation. The restaurant's ample seatings — be it in the air-conditioned indoors or the leafy open-air area — add to its allure, especially for big groups. A default Banana Leaf Rice Set (RM6.90) comes with three vegetables of the day, your fill of curries (get the chicken!) as well as some papadam to boot. No meal here is complete without a side of their famous Fried Chicken (RM6.30), a massive batter-free chicken leg marinated to juicy perfection. To share, order the Squid (RM14.90), which is deep-fried upon order along streaks of sweet onion. Kanna's food are known to come with a rather hefty price tag, but the sizeable portions and spot-on flavours are well worth paying for. Burppler Shan Kow offers a pro saving tip for carnivores: "If you don't eat vegetables, order the plain rice set with curries for RM2.90."
Avg price per person: RM15
