I was looking forward to Khauk Swè Thohk here based on the reputation. The reality was disappointing. The complex and earthy character that makes this dish special was muted — either from shortcuts with fish paste ngapi or from scaling up production at the expense of quality.

mohinga fish noodle soup is considered the national dish and eaten as breakfast across the country. The a mohinga street stall at dawn setting I was hoping for wasn't quite there either. Myanmar Beer was available but not suggested appropriately. I've had much better versions elsewhere. Two stars because the dish concept is sound; the execution let it down.
