Myanmar daily Food

Every country has its own customs and traditional food. Myanmar has a variety of traditional food. Our staple food is rice and curry daily. We still serve our dishes the same way our ancestors serve them. In Myanmar, rice, meat, fish and prawn curries are serve as main dishes while fried- vegetables salads, soups, and boiled or raw vegetables eaten with fish sauce are eaten as side-dishes.

While Myanmar cook delicious curries at home we also go to restaurants to eat. Nowadays, Myanmar restaurants prepare curries, which are appreciated by tourists, and restaurants are decorated accordingly to International décor. Some of the shops are decorated with traditional Myanmar decor.

So, customers can enjoy the food and admire the Myanmar arts at the same time. And nowadays, foreign entrepreneurs and tourists who happen to visit Myanmar enjoy Myanmar curries served in our restaurants.

Because Myanmar is rich in natural resources, it is easy to obtain fresh meat, fish and vegetables. Thus, we can provide our guests with delicious curries that you can enjoy to your heart's content.
