We stayed in Inle Lake longer than we anticipated, and this is where we had the best food of our trip. Among the many places we tried, here are the best places to eat in Nyaungshwe, Inle Lake.
Field notes
Nyaungshwe is the Inle Lake backpacker spot. It is authentic, cheaper than the other villages around the lake, easy to access with buses and to walk or cycle around. In addition to visit the lake with its floating villages and farms, we spent a lot of time in and around Nyaungshwe.

Field notes
After 50 years of isolation and oppression, Myanmar (formerly Burma) opened up to the rest of the world a few years ago and became a jewel for tourism. The country that used to be the least visited in South Asia became one of the hottest destinations in 2016.
