We went to a restaurant called Min Lann which sells Ethnic Rakhine food. Their food is amazing like really different to what we have everyday. Arakanese (another name for Rakhine) food was basically spicy with little or no oil , very distinct taste. I love Arakanese food.
We had "Picked Vegetables Salad" with black sesame on top. Oh man that's amazingly delicious and it was healthy too. I ordered Rakhine Mote Di which is a spicy rice noodle salad with tamarind sauce which brings in the sour taste to it. It comes with fried fish cake as well. That was so good. Another dish we had was Squid Salad which is also dressed with lemon + tamarind kinda sause along with some raw onions sprinkled on top and some coriander leaves which brings out the nice aroma. Squid was fresh , the texture and flavor was on point. It was wonderful.
Then as a dessert, I had Mote Pao which is kinda rice cake but steamed one stuffed with some fried coconut with brown sugar. I did not really like it thou.
After the meal, we took a walk to the lake fron , a place a lot of people had their walk and just relax seeing the sunset or even the water. We walked a bit before we were going home as the rain came.It was just drizzle but we decided to say good bye and went back home
It was fun and good to catch up with friends.
Here is a picture that I took at the waterfront and posted it on instagram.
