House of Memories

A very high-end restaurant, of course the price is also quite high. Many foreigners and local high-ranking people come here to eat. It feels like I and Toad are the only two country bumpkins... The dishes are very good. We ate on the side of the second-floor terrace, next to the trees and birds singing, very quiet.

We asked the hotel front desk to make a reservation, but there were not many people, so it was probably okay not to make a reservation. Burmese cuisine is rich in flavor and needs to be savored carefully. This is the first choice if you want to try local dishes. The fried squid is tender and delicious, and the goat curry is not spicy but has a mellow taste. The fried lentils are also delicious. I tried two cocktails and they were both authentic. There are outdoor tables on the second floor, and there is also an office reserved for General Aung San and other patriots. It is very small. After eating, I asked the waiter to call a taxi and went straight to the Shwedagon Pagoda. It arrived in less than ten minutes. Recommended!!!

Here I want to shout out loudly: Don't go!!! I don't know if it's because of tourists or websites that hyped it up or what. I went there after reading the guide, but the result was extremely disappointing! I took a taxi specifically, but the driver couldn't be found. When I went there, I saw that all the diners were tourists, and there were no locals at all. You said that rich people came here to discuss business, I don't believe it! Yes, it was indeed converted from a former office building, but these are in the past tense, and it is just an old house. But hanging old photos and placing old chairs has become a gimmick. The decoration is just like a coffee shop, but very old. There is no so-called atmosphere at all. It is dim, narrow and cramped. The service is also rigid and rigid, and it can be said that there is no sense of service. The focus is on the dishes. We ordered four dishes as shown in the picture and two glasses of juice. It sounds like a lot, right? But if you look carefully, the portions are all very small. The green vegetables are not as much as the 5 yuan plate in China. The pumpkin is only a few pieces. There is also a fish meat that is very dry, like chicken. The point is that the taste is ordinary, and everything is very salty. I can't eat it at all! Finally, we were charged 320,000, which is about RMB 150. I looked at the bill and found that they charged a very high service tax! Haha, how can they pretend to be high-end without any service. Poor us for our last meal in Yangon! It's really not as good as a 20-yuan meal at Shaxian snacks in China. My brother laughed at me all the way, saying that I blindly believed netizens!

【Taste】Great product 【Service】Very good

In Yangon, Myanmar, I most wanted to go to the "House of Memories" for dinner. The "House of Memories" is a charming old building with a history of more than 100 years. It used to be the office of General Aung San. Now it has been converted into a small restaurant. It serves high-quality Burmese dishes. The menu is made like a newspaper. There are piano performances every Friday and Saturday. It is full of nostalgia and romance. After dinner, you can also visit General Aung San's office.
