Here comes another round of new eateries in Yangon. This time we’ve got a beautiful cafe, a diner in a prime spot downtown and more.
As the name suggests, the whole room is illuminated with a starlight projector giving you a space-themed atmosphere. The menu is a blend of Korean, Thai and Western with Tteokbokki, Tom Yum soup and Caesar Salad co-existing.
