I go at least once a week for Win’s soup. I sometimes dream about it. Chicken stock with shredded chicken, rice noodles, cilantro, fried garlic and a squeeze of lime. So delicious.

The vegetarian sushi is the best I’ve had in recent memory. I loved the rice on the outside of the rolls. I need to go back soon, and verify what I ate. I think it was the Special Buffalo Roll. After I’d rinsed the package at home for recycling, the label was unreadable. So, please consider this a provisional review for an amazing package of sushi, it’s official title to be named in a later review. My apologies. Go here now.

This soup is SOOO good! I did not like the sushi that much… A previous review commented on the«Burmese sushi» and I just want to clarify that this sushi isn’t a cuisine from Burma, rather a learned trade that is common for Burmese immigrants to the States(albeit a delicious one). My husband made sushi in a grocery store for 7+ years when he first moved to The States. Many of his friends still do. So next time you’re at Wegman’s(or any grocery store for that matter), say«Kyae Zu Be» to the guy/lady behind the counter :)

Wow. I’m not even sure what else to say. This guy is the real deal for Burmese sushi. Based out of the West Side Bazaar, he’s super friendly and an activist from Burma who often gives lectures at various places around town about conflicts in the area. However, aside from that, the food he makes is divine. It’s worth going to hell and back for these rice balls of magic. He’s often got samples behind the counter, just ask. I sampled what was deemed the«Buffalo roll,» which had cream cheese, crab salad, cucumber and some other tasty ingredients and then decided to purchase a banana mango roll. It contained white rice, vinegar, seaweed, sesame seed, banana, mango, cucumber, alipinyo, inari, avocado, spicy sauce. It tasted incredibly fresh, despite being packaged up. as if it was made up only a few hours earlier. The mango flavor really came through and I’m not sure where he gets his mangos, but dang — they were out of this world. He came by a little bit after the traffic died down and sat down to chat. It was really interesting to hear his story. My only small qualm about the sushi was the wasabi that came with it wasn’t very spicy. Despite using a lot of it, I wasn’t able to get a large kick of spice, but that’s okay, because I got to taste more of the other flavors that came through because of it. I did crave a little bit of spice after though. Can’t wait to come back.

Chef Maung Chay was giving out free samples of his sushi today and he hooked me. I had the mango banana roll and it was excellent. It was sweet, salty and a little spicy. Everything appears to be pre-made and packaged. However, there is a menu and the chef is there and they are a stone’s throw from the shared commercial kitchen the other foods establishments use, so perhaps food can also be made to order. I got a package of the mango banana roll and turns out that even though there is no fish in the roll, it’s not vegan and probably not vegetarian. The spicy sauce is mayonnaise based, which means eggs. There is also eel sauce which I have since researched and sometimes has eel extract, eel bones or fertilized eel eggs, so not vegetarian. Some recipes had no eel essence, but that might just be for homemade. So, not four stars for vegetarians but what I accidentally ate was delicious. They do offer a vegetable roll and a vegetable spring roll. The mango banana roll is not on the menu but is in the case. If it’s possible to get the sushi made to order, I would definitely return for a mango banana roll with no eel sauce or spicy sauce. They also serve Mutee, a traditional home made Burmese noodle soup.
