First Taste of Burmese Cuisine: Lahpet đ
I probably wouldnât have tried Burmese food if I werenât in London. My thoughts are with the people in the earthquake-affected areas. Stay safe. While wandering around Covent Garden, I picked up some ArĂ´me desserts and decided to try this long-saved Burmese restaurant. Maybe because I had lunch late, everything tasted extra delicious. At first, I was a bit worried that the unfamiliar dishes might be too exotic and hard to accept. But the menu felt somewhat Yunnan-esque, so I ordered boldly. Even if it didnât turn out well, itâs just one meal. Whole Fried Bream: The presentation was perfect, and the taste was great. The chef separated the fish meat from the bones completely. The bream was fried just right. The outside had a crispy skin, while the inside was tender and juicy. The bones were fried to a nice crunch. Since I couldnât finish it all by myself, I took the bones home and enjoyed them with wine in the evening. The dish was served on a bed of bok choy, which had a Chinese-style seasoning that perfectly cut through the richness of the fried fish. Rakhine Mohinga: I loved the sour and spicy seafood noodle soup. The bream and squid were well-prepared, and the shrimp paste had no fishy smell. The broth had a fresh, pickled vegetable-like flavor, probably enhanced by tamarind. The half-cooked egg mixed with the noodles was a real treat, and the accompanying bean fritter was crispy and delicious. Iâll definitely come back and try more dishes with friends next time. #GlobalFoodieContest #EuroAustralianFlavorBay #StreetFoodExplorer #LondonFood
