| - While rethinking a trip I took to Myanmar a few years back, I really don't remember eating anything typically Burmese. Just chicken, rice and fish really. After eating here, it made me want to go back and see what I missed.
I came by here last night on a whim with some family members not really knowing what to expect. Starting off, we ordered samosas which were good, but not great. For our main courses we had Beef Marsala and the Chicken Basil with jasmine rice. The portions weren't huge, but it was just enough to split three ways and not feel overly full. Those two dishes were made up one of the best tasting meals I've had in a long time. Describing the food and the flavor is hard to do because it's not as hot as Thai, not as spicy as Indian, but definitely not Chinese. It's kind of this weird "it's like this, but not like that" mix which makes sense given Myanmar's geographical location. Regardless, it's some of the better tasting food I've had in Scottsdale and is surprisingly well-priced.
If you've ever had an ABC drink, they have a desert that's alot like that. I forget the name, but it was the perfect way to end the whole meal. The mango-raspberry sorbet was also ridiculously good as well.
