Balachaung exceeded every expectation
I went in with low expectations — I'd had mediocre versions before. What I found was Balachaung made with real commitment to lemongrass and technique. The pungent and fermented result was more complex and satisfying than anything I'd had before.
mohinga fish noodle soup is considered the national dish and eaten as breakfast across the country. The a traditional Burmese home breakfast was exactly right for this kind of eating. toddy palm juice was offered as the natural choice and it elevated everything. When a dish you thought you knew surprises you completely, that's worth celebrating. Five stars without hesitation.
