Pic 1️⃣: Kha Yan Thee Hnat (Aubergine Curry)
— This was AMAZING. It’s served with your choice of Burmese curry, Burmese-style creamed corn, stir-fried morning glory, Pennywort salad, balachaung and steamed rice. When I say this was full of flavour I mean it, the aubergine curry was so flavourful and packed with aromatic spices. It wasn’t overly spicy and had the perfect amount of seasoning to it. I also loved the creamed corn on the side, it wasn’t too heavy and had a slight sweetness to it which lightened up the dish. I really recommend mixing all of the different elements together to get even more flavour.

— I’d eat this for lunch everyday if I could 😍 Another very flavourful dish with a kick to it. The noodles were able to soak up all the goodness from the spicy garlic oil and each bite was just as flavourful as the last. The acidity from the pickles really helps cut through the spice too.
Pic 3️⃣: Street Food Platter (Potato Samusa, Palatha & Dip, A Kyaw Sone)
— Great way to start off the meal! Really enjoyed both the potato samusa and palatha as the filling was really well seasoned and fried to a super crispy finish. Thought the vegetable fritters could be improved as they were way too oily and slightly soft. I loved all of the dips that came with the platter as they all had a nice tanginess to them that really stimulated your appetite even further.
Pic 4️⃣: Wat Thar Hin (Pork Belly Curry)
— Similar to the aubergine curry, but the pork belly curry is slightly spicier. The dish is also slightly more dense as the pork belly is quite fatty. Other than that, flavours were just as rich, and the meat was tender.
Pic 5️⃣: Burmese Tea Ice Cream served with Banana Crumble
— Usually not a fan of banana desserts but I enjoyed this a lot more than expected! The Burmese tea ice cream had a nice tea aroma to it but personally thought it could’ve been richer. There’s also a slight malt flavour to it which was interesting. I wasn’t really a fan of the gloopy texture of the banana crumble, but once you get past it it’s quite pleasant. It’s a bit too rich and thick of a dessert for me, especially after a meal which such bold flavours, but others might love this.
📍Ambiance: spacious, beautiful interior, staff are friendly and take time to explain each dish
⭐️Would visit again?: Yep!
