In Japanese, Gekkõ translates literally as “moon-shine”.
Gekko is located on the ground floor of the beautiful Sofaer & Co. building in downtown Rangoon. It was completed by Isaac and Meyer Sofaer in 1906. Both brothers were Baghdad-born, Rangoon-educated Jews. As well as owning many commercial properties in Rangoon, Isaac and Meyer were successful traders in their own right with interests in wines & spirits amongst others. Isaac was the architectural designer and Meyer made a success of the trading business by getting exclusives for luxury goods and supplying expats with imported groceries and spirits.
Gekko was Yangon’s first true open Japanese kitchen with a charcoal fired Yakitori/Robotayaki grill and cosy cocktail lounge. The menu is focused around charcoal fired Yakitori, with several vegetarian options available, as well as classic Japanese dishes like Katsu Curry, Ramen, and an extensive menu of sushi and sashimi. More recent menu additions include Korean and Vietnamese style dishes, as well as a creative weekend brunch offering dishes such as Matcha Pancakes, Salmon and Scallop Congee, Daikon or Beef Bao and Momofuku inspired Sirloin Ssam The Japanese inspired cocktail menu is courtesy of Singapore’s famously discreet 28 Hong Kong Street, as well as group bar manager Jen Queen and their charming bar manager, Puia.
This is the perfect place to pop in for a beer and some Japanese tapas after work, relax and catch up on emails with their fast fiber optic internet connection or settle in for a proper meal and taste their extensive collection of unusual Sake, Shochu or Japanese whisky. Their Friday night Jazz nights, with live music from 8pm-10pm remain one of Yangon’s most enduringly popular nights out!

This local bakery, as most of the local ones do, sell (very) sweet breads. In the morning and for lunch you can enjoy fresh Dim Sum. You will see Black Sky bakeries all over town, which can come in handly if you are on the run and would like some coffee to take-away. Do not expect anything fancy.

This local restaurant hidden in the small streets behind the City Hall serves some of the freshest and tastiest noodles and soups in town. The pork rib noodles are particularly delectable. The owner is very friendly and is always happy to give advice about local foods. An ideal cheap-food stop right in the heart of the downtown … but it closes early.

Yangon has a rich and multi cultural history and the menu at Union Bar & Grill is designed to reflect its position as the “Union” of East meets West. Dishes include everything from the Levantine Za’taar Manaoushe with Hummus to classic British Fish and Chips (a dish that arguably has its roots in Italian & Jewish cuisine) via Kimchee & Chorizo Fried Rice With Soft Shell Crab and our Signature Union Burger made with Black Angus beef and topped with aged cheddar, bacon and homede sauces. We also have an extensive selection of vegetarian dishes (almost 25% of their menu is suitable for vegetarians and Vegans) such as our Pumpkin & Chickpea Power Plate and Herb Roasted Cauliflower, Cauliflower Rice & Romesco.

Their kitchen is completed with the help of a Kamodoe Joe smoker where they prepare succulent Burgers, Smoked Ribs, Wings & Steaks as well as a traditional wood fired Pizza oven, enabling them to offer their famous Parami Pizzas downtown for the first time. They also offer a selection of Thai dishes, created by Matthew Albert, the former Head chef of Nahm London, the first Thai restaurant to be awarded a Michelin Star, using David Thompsons award winning curry pastes and specially imported ingredients for a truly authentic flavour.
Their talented bar team, helmed by American expat Jen Queen, has also created a intriguing cocktail list, highlighting the very best local ingredients in infusions, syrups & bitters as well as the what is one of Yangons’ finest collections of imported spirits.

Happy Hour, which runs daily from 5-7pm is recognised as one of Yangon’s finest, offers special discounts on Heineken, and Tiger Beer as well as Select Cocktails from our extensive cocktail list & Infused Gin & Tonics.
They also like to keep our finger well and truly on the pulse & offer guests unique experiences such as monthly guest bartender nights, attended by some of Asia’s top bartenders including Anne Marie Sagoi, Bannie Kang and Karl Too.

This tiny restaurant in the heart of downtown serves what is regarded as some of the best Indian and Nepalese food in the city. The vegetarian Thali set is particularly popular. Don’t expect fine dining, but just a couple of tables and wall fans.
