Top choice in Yangon


This Yangon institution is a fine place to start discovering quality Burmese cuisine. There's a big choice of freshly made dishes on display – just go up to the counter and point out what you'd like. All meals come with soup, a plate of salad veggies and a small dessert. Outside, more stalls sell sweets, savoury snacks and other takeaways.

It’s very popular at lunchtime.
