The Banana Leaf Restaurant in Milpitas offers a mixture of foods from Thailand, Malaysia, and Singapore. It is an outstanding restaurant. It’s a cozy, warm, inviting place to dine with anyone; however this isn’t the right place to dine for a romantic date.

This restaurant itself is a bit small and loud. It’s an energetic place to dine. A plus about this restaurant is that you can dine inside or outside. Inside it warm and the aroma of cooking food spreads throughout, but outside you can eat under the beautiful sky when the weather's good and sit under the portable heaters if it's cold. You have to eat inside if it's raining, though.

Last week, the Logan administration had to deal with problem after problem. The first of the problems was flooded classrooms in the 200s, then the power outage in all the buildings except 400s and 500s and the numerous fire drills going off Thursday and Friday.

After hours of work over the weekend, the administration now knows what caused all of the problems, except the flood in the 200s.

Rhonda Neagle, Vice Principal of Operations, said “We still don’t know the source of the flood but we’re investigating.”
