A family kitchen in a garden in War Taw village overlooking Inle Lake, known for steamed lake fish and well-regarded vegetarian curry, and also offering cooking classes.
Located in War Taw village on Inle Lake's east shore. After passing Red Mountain Winery, turn off the road and go for about 5 minutes; from Nyaung Shwe it is about 10 minutes by bicycle. Family-run, with a Tripadvisor rating of 4.8, it once ranked second in Nyaung Shwe. The garden grows dragon fruit and offers views over the lake. Signature dishes include garlic-chilli steamed lake fish, chicken curry, tomato salad, fried bamboo shoots and ginger salad, usually served with tea, snacks, soup and fruit.
