A heartwarming slice of Myanmar in Willesden where the drone of Burmese radio and the scent of shrimp paste create a truly homestyle atmosphere.
Ordering Strategy
Start with a salad (Ginger or Tea Leaf) which is unique to the cuisine, then share noodle dishes and skewers family-style.
What to order
Shan Khao Swe
A popular rice noodle dish with tomatoes and tender chicken that tastes as if it had been cooked and served at a Burmese kitchen table, unmodified for Western palates.
Wet Thar Dote Htoe
A street-vendor snack of stewed pork offal on skewers served with aromatic broth; it is so popular that on some nights 'almost every table' is seen ordering it.
Gin Thoke
A 'totally unique' ginger salad featuring a tangle of pickled ginger and crunchy fried beans that 'pleads for another spoonful after the last.'
Kyay Oh
A noodle soup with freshly ground meatballs that offers 'greater depth' among the restaurant's lesser-seen authentic plates.
