Eat at one of Mandalay’s many street food joints

The beauty of exploring the city by bicycle is, that you are totally flexible and free to do what you like.

In terms of food this means you can just cruise down the road, look for a place that seems inviting and then sample some of the local food. In my case it was the plain and simple fried rice. You just can’t go wrong with it. But the best thing about Myanmar cuisine is, that you always get a pot of complimentary tea. No matter where you are, you will get your tea. It’s just good, goes well with the food and it’s sociable. Burmese just love spending time sipping tea and chatting with friends and other guests. A must do when you travel Myanmar for sure.
