Sven De BruyneOctober 28, 2013Some of the best food you'll find in Yangon! It's packed with tourists and it's a bit more expensive (about 15$ with drinks and dessert) but you won't regret it! Free wifi though painstakingly slow :)Upvote1Downvote
Hugh FlouchFebruary 10, 2013Excellent starters of Burmese Ginn Thoke (marinated ginger, peanuts, dried shrimp & garlic) and Vietnamese ban ceo (rice pancake with pork, shrimp and fresh herbs) With mSin course and drinks £15.Upvote2Downvote
Yone LJune 28, 2015Great place for a variety of South East Asian food but remember there is a 10% tax and 10% service charge so you don't freak out when the bill comes

ArnoldDecember 29, 2015Prefect restaurant in Yangon! It's gives a wide menu of all the Asian countries. So try a Thais curry or some typical Myanmar's, Vietnamese or Laos food.UpvoteDownvote

Vijay AnandJanuary 24, 2018Huge menu selection.. Fastest wifi (free) with option to make any dish as vegetarian, however unwontedly on the higher side, bland food are major let down..UpvoteDownvote
Nikki ChauJanuary 16, 2016Absolutely mediocre, especially for vegetarian dishes. My friend got a fish dish and wasn't thrilled either. Our bill was 30k, wish we'd gone wild in China Town instead. Saving grace: ok atmosphere.UpvoteDownvote

Dwight ดนัยNovember 25, 2014Nice colonial atmosphere. Food is ok. Drinks mediocre. But good place to meet up for a basic beer. It's the last lights and noise before the run down stretch of the road hits Strand Rd.Upvote1Downvote
EDROctober 21, 2017Overrated! This place has a huge menu spanning from Thai to Vietnamese. I ordered a tuna salad it was quite of a let down, I prefer original spots in town.UpvoteDownvote
