Yangon trip - the food that I had

The free breakfast provided by the The Willow Inn during my stay was good. When Michael and I ventured out for the local delicacy, we found that was not much varieties. Fortunately, there were some decent places for dining. One of the places was the Indian restaurant (forgot the name, I think it's Nilar Biryani). They served the best Faluda (as claimed by the foodies in the internet). It is actually a sweet dessert drink, kinda like our Malaysian's ABC. But I think their briyani was the best. We ended up patronizing that place twice. We also tried the #1 restaurant in Yangon, 999 Shan Noodle House, as claimed by Tripadvisor. Well, just say their noodles were not as best as my favourite wantan mee in SS2.

A friend of Michael brought us to Shan Yoe Yar. A decent restaurant that serves food from the Shan State. This was really awesome. How to describe it - a mixture of Chinese and Thai flavor. The most unforgettable meal was the local mixed rice. They like to have their dish super oily - to keep away the flies from stopping by the food. By the way, the best Faluda was in Shwe Pu Zun Coffee House, as recommended by Michael's friend. Couldn't agree more.

Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route

Just came back from Japan last week. Went to Tokyo for conference and added side trip to Tateyama Alpine Route and Kanazawa. I must say that Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route was great. You can do the trip either from Nagano side or Toyama side. For us, we did it from the Nagano side. Took the Shinkansen to Nagano early morning. Then boarded the express bus to Ogizawa. From there, we boarded the tunnel electric bus to get to Kurobe Dam. From the dam, it was all the way up to the peak (almost). Murodo is the highlight of the route. This is the place where you get to see snow covered peak and lake. In spring, there's snow wall nearby Murodo station. From Murodo, we descended to Bijodaira and Tateyama Station to catch the local train back to Toyama. The fare for the entire route is not cheap, but it's worth it. A hike from Bijodaira to Murodo should be interesting, which can be considered in future. View from the tunnel electric bus, onward to Kurobe Dam Arrived at Kurobe Dam View of t...

MyVi

Had got my new MyVi last Friday. Initial consumption was a litre for a 10-km drive. Well, it seems quite costly but this is still early to judge as the engine needs up to 5,000km drive to get optimize (that's what people tell me). Enjoy driving it.
