Singapore’s Banana Leaf

Located at The Original Farmers Market in Los Angeles, Singapore’s Banana Leaf offers guests an opportunity to sample Singaporean food – one of the world’s great cuisines, though it’s unfortunately far more difficult to find in Orange County. Fusing flavors and ingredients common in Chinese, Indian, and Thai dishes, Singaporean cuisine is its own offshoot of these influences, like Malaysian and Indonesian.

Operating since 2001, Singapore’s Banana Leaf wouldn’t be out of place in a Singaporean hawker center, one of the country’s many affordable mega food courts. It offers mee goreng noodles, Indo-style (egg- and satay-topped) nasi goreng rice, fish curry, satay, curry puffs, chendol dessert, and mango refresher drinks.
