Shwe Sa Bwe restaurant

Yangon - This restaurant was ranked #1 on TripAdvisor and so I must give it a try.   We arrived on time for our 7.30pm booking.  It's not far from our hotel and also sits on the north shore of the Inya Lake.

Walking through the restaurant gives you a British colonial feeling, a beautifully decorated mansion and is one of the best fine dining in Yangon.   It has a catering training school  and was started as a social enterprise by a French expat Francois Stoupan.   Only a small intake of 22 students graduate per year and they come from all over Myanmar most from disadvantage backgrounds.

Dinner is from set meals of two or three courses.  We choose the 3 course meals.

Kawauchi and me

Salad
My first course was so beautifully and painstaking decorated like a fine artist. The vegetables are nicely placed on a cut out ring of watermelon.

Veal 
The veal was nicely done - rare in the middle and succulent.   Yummy....

Desert
This is art by passionate to be chefs.   The brown crust is meringue crisp and within is the ice-cream.   The ice was still solid sold.     A really good meal.
