"People are so excited to see the beriani inside bamboo tubes because it's something different. The bamboo will give a natural taste to the beriani. I started with catering business first, then I decided to open a small stall," he told Bernama here.

Gunaseelan said the bamboo beriani received overwhelming response from customers.

"At first I only used 50 bamboo tubes, then I have to add 50 more tubes because of the overwhelming response. For the month of Ramadan I have to add another 50 tubes,” he said.
