discussion Had an Interesting Conversation with Ankit Gupta (Burma Burma’s Co-founder)

Visited Burma Burma at Fort recently and got a chance to meet Ankit Gupta, one of the co-founders. We ended up talking about the story behind the restaurant, which was honestly more interesting.

He shared how the idea was inspired by his mother, who is from Burma, and how that connection influenced the food and the concept. One thing that stuck with me was his point about Khow Suey. Apparently, there are around 100 versions of it in Burma. I had always thought  its one dish.

We also spoke about how the different outlets have their own design themes inspired by different parts of Burma.

It was nice getting to hear the thinking behind a restaurant directly from one of the people who built it.
