No, Banana Leaf used to be the first Thai restaurant in Shanghai, which was first opened in Guangzhou and then in Shanghai, and now it has withdrawn from the Shanghai market. Guangzhou Banana Leaf used to be one of the most famous banana leaves in China, but in 2007, it was found to have infringed on Asian banana leaves and was sued, which led to the company's forced closure because it could not continue to operate. For infringement, director Guangzhou Banana Leaf was also fined 500,000 yuan.
