Lotus blossom petals

Has anyone used lotus blossom petals as a wrap for Thai food? They have them fresh in our local Asian market and I've been told them have a very mild flavor.

    Yes, Erawan Thai restaurant in KL (Malaysia) uses pink lotus blossom petals for "mieng kam" wraps, in place of betel leaves.

      I think that's exactly what my friend in KL referred to. Thank you so much!
