Golden Myanmar Food

It does definitely seem like there has been quite an influx of food stalls serving up Myanmar cuisine over the years — whilst most of them are concentrated around the City Hall area, we have visited quite a number which are located around Clementi / West Coast, Balestier, Bugis and even within Soon Lee. Golden Myanmar Food seems to be a pretty recent addition to the Guan Guan Kopitiam coffeeshop at Blk 1015 Geylang East Avenue 3 — the coffeeshop is situated within walking distance away from Paya Lebar MRT Station. It does seem like Golden Myanmar Food is an establishment that is run by mainland Chinese behind the stall — apart from serving up various Myanmar-style rice / noodle dishes, the stall also serves up Mala Hotpot whilst also offering economic Bee Hoon and Nasi Lemak during mornings.

Golden Myanmar Food does not describe the elements that goes into their various dishes; with that being said, it is noted that the Shan Noodles typically comes with elements such as rice noodles, chicken tomato sauce, garlic, chili and pickles. With the rice noodles being presented with a thick, sticky sauce, the Shan Noodles can be described as a little bit of a dry noodle dish where the rice noodles come with the flavours of the chicken tomato sauce that is drenched over it; itself carrying a savoury and slightly tangy note that is somewhat similar to that of Mohinga, though the texture of the noodles and chicken chunks alongside its drier nature does bring it closer to a Nangyi Thoke (i.e. rice noodle salad). There is also a slight hint of spiciness that comes with the Shan Noodles that tickles the tastebuds, though is pretty much manageable even for those whom have a lower tolerance to spiciness. The chicken chunks do add a meaty touch to balance things out with the rice noodles, though the chicken does come a little more dry and fibrous — a texture more familiar with chicken dishes that we had experienced so far with Myanmar cuisine.
