Burma Burma opens second location in Bengaluru
Amid the everchanging culinary landscape in Bengaluru, there are but a handful of names that have stood the test of time; fewer still have been fortunate to expand their presence in the city.
When it first launched in 2018, Burma Burma was seen as an anomaly, albeit a flavoursome one. With the abundance of Indo-Chinese (which are truly neither Indian nor Chinese) and Tibetan options that catered to vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike, it seemed authentic Burmese cuisine of the herbivorous kind could be overlooked.
Now five years later, Burma Burma is proving it can hold its own in a city where tastes shift with the demographic. Wisely sticking to the tried and tested, the management is continuing with their previous menu whilst offering a few new dishes to celebrate their opening at a second location.
One of the best things about Burmese cuisine is its amazing palette of flavours and textures — richly varied and yet hearty and homely; even die-hard carnivores could forgett about the no non-veg aspect.
Three new starters have been added to the bill of fare and each one is delicious enough to make you debate skipping the entrees. Bandel is a cheese popular in the northeastern regions of India and its smoky flavour makes it an amazing accompaniment for the Crunchy Shiitake Fingers — crisply fried shiitake mushrooms coated in semolina and hemp seed.
For the Trumpet Mushroom Steak, succulent king oyster mushrooms are grilled and served with puffed black rice in a chilli lime dressing, ticking all the flavours in the umami box.
Rather like South Indian podi, the Burmese have balachaung — a spicy relish made with fried onions, garlic, red chillies and crushed peanuts — which enhances even the simplest of meals. Here, the culinary team have balachaung-stuffed peppers sitting atop the edamame and broad bean hummus, adding zing to the flavourful puree; With the accompanying Burmese naan, it can make for a rather satisfying meal for light eaters.
