After a soft introduction into the tea house tradition at Rangoon Tea House, we were off to experience it the local way, at Yangon’s Lucky Seven. Completely, utterly different 🙂 This time, breakfast. For my brain and my stomach noodles etc. are something I have for dinner, not for my first meal of the day. At least not before 9 in the morning. Still full from all I had devoured the day before, and too early for hot food (except bacon and eggs, that is), I’m afraid I wasn’t the most adventurous person this morning. As usual my local friend took charge of food and drinks selection – bless her! Don’t know if we were a little late, since a lot of the items on the menu, they didn’t have. Regardless, along came tea with milk, which tasted like hot chocolate, buns filled with chicken, fried rice, soup, and, something – I don’t remember what is was. Just that, when I said to her husband: Is that chicken feet?, he replied: Yep, that’s chicken feet, as he fished them out of the bowl 😀 Needless to say this is a traditional tea house in all ways of the word. Now I have done both!
This sounds delicious, reading this makes me very hungry!
😀 If you know what to get, it’s really good 😉
Great place to visit and eat like a local. So handy to have someone from the area to order as well. #citytripping
Always helpful when locals’ English are limited and I have no chance of making myself understood in their language 🙂
I remember having dim sum for breakfast in Burma too- definitely like to have coffee first and am more adventurous later in the day… Thanks for linking up with #citytripping
Yes, it is a bit too rich for breakfast 🙂 But cool to have visited!
funny name for a tea house:) #citytriping
I guess 🙂 Don’t know if there’s a story behind it.
What an experience! The food sounds (and looks) amazing. Although I’d probably have a hard time eating all of that for breakfast too.
We were three people, but, yes, rich breakfast 🙂
