SCENE: Casual and friendly, this lunch-and-dinner place is where those in the know come for top-notch Burmese cuisine. Don’t let the weekend hustle and bustle scare you away.
EATS: One taste of the vegetarian samusa soup—the Burmese equivalent of Indian samosas floating in a rich curry broth with broken-up falafel—and life will never be the same. Don’t forget the crunchy la pat dok, a salad of Burmese tea leaves, tomatoes, crisp lettuce, dried shrimp, fried garlic, sesame seeds and peanuts tossed tableside. If you’ve got a big appetite, add an order of the pumpkin-pork stew. Wash it all down with fresh coconut juice.
