The Chinese, Thai, Filipinos, and others, will have rice (usually sticky mochi rice) steamed in leaves - banana, ti, or lotus. These are sometimes filled and sometimes not. I'll have to try some out the next time I see it served. I'm not a big fan of rice served this way but if I'm doing research, that's a good excuse, right?
