Enjoying Morning in Tea Center
I don't see coffee shop in my way, but i can easily found tea center. So, you can try to enjoy the morning in a tea center arround Bagan. I think, burmese love to drink tea than coffee. In Marhangwe Tea Center, i just try to order a cup of tea, but the item i get is a milk tea. Is the default tea in Myanmar ? Because yesterday when i order a tea on restaurant, i got milk tea. Its hard to get ice tea like in Indonesia.

There are no pricetag in the menu, but we believe that this is not expensive. I need to pay arround 8000 Kyaat for the rice, tea, soup and anchovy. Its not too expensive and standard breakfast in Indonesia but with different food.
Best Goat Curry Ever!
I was started the tour arround old Bagan in afternoon, before we start the tour we visit a local restaurant. I think its not restaurant, in Indonesian its called WARUNG. I dont know how to say warung in english because restaurant is too luxurious.

| Best Goat Curry Ever in Bagan |
On this home restaurant i just order goat curry, and when i try this curry. Damn! This is the most delicious goat curry I've ever tasted! I cant descibe with the word in english.
This restaurant near from marhangwe tea center that i've visit before. Just about 200 meter near this tea center. I dont know exactly where the home restaurant in the maps. Just see the front of restaurant below :D
For seven people we spent about 21000 Kyaat. Not too expensive i think with the delicious menu. If you want to try, just looking for Marhangwee Tea Center and go straight about 200 meter and you will can see this home restaurant.
Before sightseeing arround old Bagan, we recomend you to have a lunch first. Because no restaurant arround old Bagan. Old Bagan sterile from settlements. If you already have a lunch or have bring a lunch, lets start looking arround old bagan that have about two hundred pagoda.
