Food Guide For Vegetarians In Burma

Image
I grew up on crossover foods in the US; that means the American version of only the most famous dishes from each region. That’s well and fine for a sample and an “exotic” dinner when my taste-buds are bored back home, but the real thing is so very, very different once I ventured out on my travels. I have found this is the case with Thai food, as well as the Middle Eastern vegetarian foods I sampled throughout Jordan. The problem with this food pattern though, is that I was left completely unfamiliar with cuisines that never made the leap across the many oceans and seas. It wasn’t until I lived in Chiang Mai for about nine months out of the past year, that I happened upon Burmese food. Once discovered, dishes and flavors from Burma have become a passion and my Burmese friends ensured I spent my time sampling delicious dishes, salads, and flavor combinations my palate had never considered. These same friends prepped me with advice on ordering vegetarian food, what to eat, and how to fin...

Chaung Tha And Ngwe Saung: Two Charming Beaches Near Yangon

However, if you want to know some of beautiful Myanmar beaches near Yangon, we will recommend Chaung Tha beach and Ngwe Saung beach. Ngwe Saung beach Ngwe Saung beach is located in the Irrawaddy region of Myanmar. In Burmese language, Ngwe Saung means “sliver”, so Ngwe Saung beach is also called Sliver beach. The beach consisting of 15 kilometers of white sand and blue sea, bordered by tall, green palms swaying in the breeze is a wonderful relaxation spot. Compared to the more developed Ngapali beach, Ngwe Saung beach has fewer luxury hotels and resorts and also less touristy; however, this makes it more tranquil and peaceful. Ngwe Saung beach is also an ideal place for fantastic seafood as well as beach and sea sports. It hosted ...
