Ever wanted to try a fusion of Chinese, Indian, Malay Food? Then Inle Myanmar Restaurant is the place to go. So, my Burmese friend has always been telling me how great Burmese food are. So I decided to go with her to get a first-hand experience of Burmese Food. Via the recommendation of my friend, I tried one of their famous dishes and their popular Dessert. Unfortunately, due to their extensive menu, I could not try all the dishes.TasteThis glass of pinkish sea with myriad of swimming 'treasure
Taste
This glass of pinkish sea with myriad of swimming 'treasures' is called Hpa Lu da or as I like to call it, the Bandung treasure glass. It consists of a Floating island of vanilla ice cream , the 'treasures' : which includes various jellies , chestnut, sago seeds fruits and pudding swimming in the sea of Rose Cordial Syrup. It is a great dessert for those with sweet tooth ( like me!). I also had a fine time digging out 'treasures' and tasting them. I had my doubts before I taste the dessert, however , I must agree the drink and the 'treasures' complement each other really well.
'Do not judge a book by its cover'. This is my take-away when tasting this dish. Its translation in English means Claypot Rice. When I first saw the dish, I did not think it was claypot rice at all! The dish does not even look like a claypot. There was just an assortment of vegetables and Chicken ( I ordered the Chicken ; they also have pork and seafood ). So I was told to mix them up and mix I did. When the first spoonful of them entered my mouth, I was literally blown away by the rich taste of the food. You could taste the vegetable , rice , meat and gravy all at once! So it was definitely an eye-opener and a 'tongue-blaster' experience for me.Environment & Service
The waiter thought I was a burmese and he asked for my order in Burmese. His 'one-hundred-syllables' a minute got me tongue-tied. Luckily I had someone who could order for me. The restaurant also plays their native music. I guess this place caters more to the Burmese that are living in Singapore. But of course, I can spot a few Singaporeans and Caucasians at the other tables. The service people look friendly enough, maybe they should be encouraged to speak more English so as to cater to 'outsiders' like me.
Price
The dishes may seem expensive, but they are more than affordable (considering is a restaurant). An ala carte dish like the claypot rice would cost you around 7 dollars while the dessert is around $4.50.
Definitely going back to try out more dishes.
