About FoodMyanmar

FoodMyanmar started from a simple observation: Myanmar people living outside the country spend a lot of time searching for the food they grew up with — recipes half-remembered from a parent, a specific dish from a specific hometown, or just the closest thing to home available in a new city.

We built FoodMyanmar as an app and a set of guides to make that search easier, whether that means finding Burmese ingredients, learning a dish, or getting a sense of where the Myanmar food community lives in a new city.

FoodMyanmar is not a single restaurant, and the guides on this site are editorial content, not a verified business directory. We try to be upfront about that distinction — restaurants and vendors change constantly, and we would rather describe a food culture accurately than pretend to a level of real-time accuracy we cannot guarantee.
