Pyiwa - Pakokku

Nobody talks about this joint on the traveler blogs so it's often empty, but for us it was the best restaurant in Bagan (really tasty). Much better than Spoon's or Bibo's which are crowded with tourists all the time. And it's super cheap

I ordered the chicken curry along with a freshly squeezed pineapple juice (altogether 5000 kyat). A soup was included and beside the rice and chicken there were five small delicacies. All in all it was the best meal I had in Myanmar so far.

Delicious and originally prepared dishes. Big portions! And what is amazing is that food not so fatty as at another places! Cooking takes a long time, but the expectation is worth it. I highly recommend to try a spinach salad and tomato soup :

As good as others said here. Food was really tasty, fresh, properly portioned priced. Most restaurants in Myanmar so far have been really bland (adjusted for westerners taste? and kind of expensive. This place is an exception. Outdoor seating is next to an old pagoda! Recommended!

Local cuisine at it's best. We liked the spinach salad as well. Not many guests in the restaurant, unclear why. Food safety and quality is very good and we had no problems. It seems to be an authentic family business.
