Where is Burma and what is Burmese cuisine?
The national dish of Burma is called Mohinga which is a fish noodle soup that’s eaten at breakfast. That’s at 6am, as the dish is temperature hot as well as chilli hot, so best eaten before the weather gets too hot. Most Burmese people say that Mohinga would be the staple dish of Burma. However Kyi disagrees, for her it’s Lahpet Thoke (fermented tea leave salad). The dish would be like what beer is to Brits... used when socialising with friends. Can be eaten at home or in numerous 24 hour tea shops in Burma and obviously the caffeine in the tea leaves help people stay chatty all night!
Burma borders, among others, India, China and Thailand, which are some of the most popular cuisines in the UK. Burmese cuisine is an amalgamation of all these cuisines. Thus instead of thinking should you pick an Indian, Chinese or Thai curry tonight... have all three and choose Burmese.
It is more than a supperclub, it is an experience!
