Shami Banana Leaf Delights

Me & my colleagues were just finished a meeting in Church of Our Lady Star of The Sea and we decided to have lunch in Northpoint. We went to the food court at the basement 2 of the mall. There were quite a few interesting stalls, like Fried Rice Paradise, Komala, etc. But one that caught my eyes was this one stall that had a steady queue of average 15 - 20 people, and it's moving quite fast. It was the Shami Banana Leaf Delights, it sells briyani rice.


I'm always drawn by food stall that has long queue (it shows that the food is either good or breathtakingly cheap). So I decided to take part in the long queue. The queuing time is not bad, around 3-5 mins. The food, oh man it's so good!! I ordered mutton briyani; the rice was nice, big portion; the meat was tender enough, not falling of the bone, but decent; the gravy was the best of it all, it's thick & tasty. The price was not very cheap but reasonable for briyani, around $5.50 - $7.00. They also sells chicken & fish. 

So when you are around Yishun, it's worth your time to try this briyani rice =)
