Food in Maungmakan


Beach sellers selling snacks. Were too scared to try.


The food in Maungmakan was delicious.  I wish I took pictures of it!  We ate most of our meals at this hut on the beach.  The lady who ran it spoke a tiny bit of English, just enough that we were able to order food and know how much to pay.  The process at any of the huts are the same.  There are no menus.  You walk into the open kitchen, and pick what you would like to eat from the cooler.  We had stirfried squid, shrimp, baked fish, and baked crab.  The guesthouse also served food and we had the most delicious garlic shrimp and garlic squid.  My mouth is watering just thinking of the food!!!  The food was very different from the food in other parts of Myanmar, being that there were no curries.  As it was the end of the trip, we were getting more adventurous with our eating.  We ate noodles a couple of times at the market stalls.  The best bowl of noodles had a fish broth topped with pork blood and pork fat.
