Where to eat in Yangon : Pork Stick at Zephyr

It’s enough to get tummies rumbling with hunger: the smell of well-boiled pig viscera. Even casual passers-by turn their heads and start salivating when they catch a whiff of intestines, placentas, ears and other parts as they are removed from the boiled soup.

This is the scene of where to eat in Yangon at the pork-stick shop run by Zephyr Restaurant at Sein Lann So Pyay Garden. Set in a grove of cool trees under a hut beside Inya Lake, the shop offers a bit of peace and quiet for pork-stick lovers, but the delicacy can also be ordered from Zephyr’s regular tables situated nearby.

There are two boiled pork-stick pots and one fried pork-stick pot. The price is K200 for each stick, while small and large plates run K5000 and K10,000 respectively.

White Rice Restaurants : Chinese Dishes for Kids

Eating out for dinner isn’t too complicated if you are single, or if you’re married but haven’t had any children yet.

Sometimes I wonder whether I am lucky to have a husband who is always keen to go and try food at new restaurants, as well as a daughter who is very active and playful. Besides them, I have two nephews (10 and 15) who always want to join us whenever we eat out.

So, whenever we make dining-out plans on weekends, my husband and I have to choose a place that fits our family requirements. Before we had our daughter, we could go to new, hip, noisy bars where drinks are often more important than the food.

But now we have many more questions to answer before heading out: Is the food good for kids? Is it air-conditioned? Is the space big and clean? Does the restaurant have baby high-chairs? In Myanmar, the answer to the last question is almost always no.
