Burma Burma
Burma Burma is celebrating its 10th anniversary with a spectacular new menu titled ‘The 10-Year Trail.’ We had the chance to preview it at one of the restaurant’s Mumbai outlets and spent an afternoon of delicious discovery there. The menu pays homage to the ingredients and culinary traditions of different regions of Burma, spotlighting the diversity of the flavours of Burmese cuisine. We began our meal with a soul-soothing corn and mushroom soup called Sarbuthi, followed by vibrant salads. The tangy and spicy Siman Thoke featured chickpea tofu and raw papaya, while the Steamed Rice Tofu Salad was enhanced with coriander, shallot oil, crispy garlic and more. Among the mains, opt for the Monk’s Meal or Kho Poong with Pebok Chet. It has been inspired by the sustainable practices of the monasteries of Bago.
Burma Burma is known for its extensive selection of teas and non-alcoholic drinks, including several speciality beverages. From the anniversary menu, we highly recommend the Kan Lan Yay (sugarcane juice, raspberry puree, lime, nori salt) and the Durian Float (durian fruit with a blend of durian banana milk, black grass jelly, and nata de coco). We were left impressed with all the exquisite delights we tasted during our meal. Check out this special menu while you still can.
