Lunch today with mum. I wanted to treat her to Myammar cuisine as she had never try it b4. Hanthi treated me to myammar food a few months ago and i feel it was quite tasty.

We ate at Inle myammar restaurant, it was the only myammar restaurant in singapore. We ordered :

1x pickled tea leaves salad
1x pennywort salad
1x fried gourd and tofu fritters
1x myammar coffee
1x myammar tea

The salad arrived shortly. I requested for the ommission of peanuts yet i can still see it on my pennywort salad. I do not noe what is pennywort but this is still as tasty as before. The pickled tea leaves salad is highly recommended. It consists of dried shrimps, peanuts, sesame seeds, fried broad beans, myammar tea leaves, lime, chilli padi and some parsley. It taste a little sourish due to the lime. The taste is quite unique as i have not try it before. The broad beans were lightly fried and it was very crunchy.

Deep-fried gourd, i thought it was bitter gourd instead.
The fried gourd looks like a banana fritter but it is actually a slice of hairy gourd, coated with some flour and deep-fried. According to the waiter there, it is a popular food in myammar cuisine.

Todu fritters, made from chickpea flour is a triangular pc of fritter. It is almost taste-less when eating on it's own. You have to dip it into the special tamarind dip in order to enjoy the flavour. . They are crispy outside and soft inside. My burmese friend love it alot.

Myammar coffee taste more like malaysia white coffee. It is quite fragrant with strong aroma of milk and coffee. The myammar tea taste like ordinary chinese tea.

The service here is friendly. Although some of the waiter could not speak or understand english very well, we can still communicate with them by pointing at the pictures from the menu and they can recommend the popular dishes to us.

After lunch, i brought mum to esplanade as she had not gone there before. I know she find it a little too tiring after all the walking but i still enjoy going out with her. I hope there are more opportunity to come.
