A three-tiered fine dining experience like no other.
The luxurious lakeside establishment Le Planteur is a restaurant to rival any gastronomic experience in the world. Hidden away from the hustle of the city and situated on the serene shores of Inya Lake inside a stunning colonial house, the restaurant is an icon of Yangon life and in the upper echelons of international-standard fine dining.
Since joining the creative kitchen of Le Planteur in 2017, Executive Chef Jean Marc Lemmery has worked hard to add his unique flair to the menu. Having worked previously at the 3-star Michelin restaurant in Hotel Balzac in Paris and Sketch in London, Chef Jean Marc decided to open his own restaurant, l’Alycastre in 2004 and it was awarded a Michelin star the following year. Following on from this success Chef Jean Marc moved to Bali to open a hotel and restaurant, before finally finding himself in Myanmar and at the helm Le Planteur.
In the year since his arrival, Chef Jean Marc has helped develop the three-tiered experiences that La Planteur, culminating in “The 3 Ambiences” that the restaurant offers:
Gourmet by Le Planteur
Years of fine-tuning the menu at Le Planteur have created the symphony of flavours and fusions that it holds today. Using the finest ingredients, both locally sourced or freshly imported, the modern European and Indochine fine dining experience has become the signature of Chef Jean Marc, perfected with his Michelin background. Speciality dishes include turbot with purple gnocci and the smoked scallops risotto. To complete the occasion, the spectacular setting of Le Planteur affords its guests the opportunity to dine in style, whether it is indoors, on the terrace or on the scenic shores of Inya Lake.
Wine Bar by Le Planteur
Drawing from an extensive and impressive wine cellar that is unrivalled in Southeast Asia, the Wine Bar allows guests of Le Planteur to explore the world through a wine glass. To make their exceptional collection of Grand Cru wines more accessible, the Wine Bar uses enomatic technology to allow guests to sample wines-by-the-glass from 32 different international bottles, while still guaranteeing the wine’s integrity. Wine tastings will also be paired with a selection of Shan tapas for guests to enjoy.
High Tea by Le Planteur
The iconic high teas at Le Planteur are best enjoyed out in the garden during late afternoon, when the air is fresh and the views are spectacular. Be spoiled by the sets of sweet and savoury homemade pastries, accompanied by varied choice of tea and champagne.
