6 a .m in Myanmar.

How does Yangon start instead?

Well, with mohinga and tea.

We're diving deep into breakfast locals have been waking up to for generations.

From steaming bowls of noodles to decades -old tea shops, this is Burmese breakfast like you've never seen.

Good morning from Myanmar.

Today we are taking you on a breakfast tour here in Yangon.

When I spoke to Burmese people living abroad the thing they told me they miss most about their country

and their food was the breakfast we're gonna have the ultimate breakfast tour here in Yangon

so for breakfast this morning in Yangon we're having the national dish mohinga

you can't come to Myanmar without eating mohinga

so it starts with the base of garlic chilies onions cooked

down with a fish river fish cart until the meat just falls off the bone

and then they actually take the bones pound it into like a powder

and then they mix it back into the soup

so even the bones are in there they thicken it up with a chickpea powder

and then it's served with boiled eggs

and noodles rice noodles this massive pot of mohinga is boiling away on charcoal

and they are just selling out like by 8 30 every day we're here at 7 30

and it is just absolutely packed you can pick all your toppings as you wish

and they also have another dish here called ono khao sui

which is like a coconut milk base we're gonna try both

but just getting in the kitchen getting close

and seeing all the action that's one way to start your day here in Yangon.

Breakfast in Yangon.

This is mohinga and there are so many different types of mohinga.

I'm not even going to get into it from all the different regions across the country.

But today we've got our bowl which comes with a couple of interesting ingredients.

This

fried bottled gourd and then the banana stem which is very popular

and then we've got a whole onion it looks like there as well.

And then I've been told I should dress it up with a little bit of cilantro here,

a little bit more, and then some chili as well.

And this is gonna be my first taste of mojenga which is such a famous dish here.

Squeeze of lemon.

Let's give that a little mix.

Oh, that's looking super thick.

So it's thickened up with that chickpea powder and then just the bones of the fish, everything river fish

oh yum like fried bottle gourd in there

which gives it a nice crunch

and the noodles are super slippery just thin little noodles kind of like hanom jean in Thailand

and the flavor is not as like fishy as I thought

it's actually quite subtle really thick creamy broth like the noodles are just completely soaked.

There's so much going on in there.

Let me try this, which is the banana stem or like I guess the trunk of the banana tree.

It reminds me of lotus stem.

It's like almost nothing.

It's just like air and fiber really nice just a little bit of a crunch

and I'm eyeing this onion that they put in there whole onion you just take a biter the side of it

I thought it was gonna be like really strong seafood flavor

which for me 7 in in the morning is not like my cup of tea, but it's actually not.

It's really, really nice.

Creamy, a little bit sweet, a little bit spicy now.

I've added the chilies, and then you can squeeze the lemon as much as you want for the sourness.

And that's awesome.

This style of mohinga is called meow -meah.

I'm not gonna get into it, like I said, because I don't know enough about it to talk about it, but it's a little bit lighter.

There's not fish paste in this one, So the seafood flavor is not as strong.

I'm just sitting right on the side of the street, watching them cook.

They're all cooking over charcoal too.

And like I said earlier, they're going to sell out real quick.

This is a popular breakfast spot.

Mohinga.

I love it.

It's actually so delicious.

Okay, second bowl of noodles.

We got the Ono Khao Sui, which they only sell on Saturdays and Sundays.

So I guess there's a debate.

It's similar to Khao Sui in Thailand, or maybe Khao Sui is similar to Ono Khao Sui in Myanmar.

Very similar coconut milk based broth.

This one is chicken, so no fish in this one.

Some onions, some crackers.

They gave us lots of bones.

I see the wishbone in there too.

And some noodles on the bottom there.

I'm going to again throw some cilantro on top here.

And this is also thickened up with the chickpea powder as well.

Let's see if we can get down to those noodles at the bottom.

There we go.

Mmm.

My gosh, super creamy because like it's already creamy from the coconut milk

that they put in there but then they thickened it with the chickpea powder

so it's like extra extra thick and it's not as spicy even though it has

that red color it's not very spicy and then another key difference here is that the noodles are actually wheat noodles.

This one's a lot sweeter than the mohinga really creamy really rich

I actually think I prefer the mohinga

this one's a little bit heavy for me for breakfast I order my mohinga with a duck egg in it

and I'm so excited to try I love it go straight for it

it's pretty good really good actually

Thank you to Mark and Sandy from Sabah tour for taking us to a really, really good spot.

100

It makes me happy when I see

101

Thai people enjoying the morning gaff.

102

I don't think you're converted on the Onok house.

103

I love it.

104

One thing that makes traveling way easier for me is knowing I'm going to have data as soon as I land.

105

That's why I've been using Olafly, which gives you unlimited data in over 200 destinations around the world.

106

And because it's an eSIM, I don't have to mess around with any physical SIMs.

107

I just install it on my phone.

108

And if you travel a lot like I do, they even have unlimited monthly plans, which work in 160 plus destinations.

109

So instead of buying a new SIM or figuring out a new data plan every time you cross the border,

110

you can basically stay connected wherever you're going.

111

Something else I really like is Olafly's always on feature.

112

You get one gigabyte of backup data after purchasing a short trip or a monthly plan.

113

So for example, I'm traveling in Japan

114

and I'm transiting in another country on the way home and my plan has just run out.

115

Well, I have one gigabyte of backup data, which gives me enough time to renew my plan or grab a new eSIM for my next destination.

116

So for me, it's really just taking the hassle out of traveling

117

and having the peace of mind that I will be connected

118

when I land so I can focus on the things that really matter when you travel, like the food.

119

Use my code to get a discount on your next Olifla eSIM.

120

So we spotted this stall on the side of the street making something they call ijiaqgwe,

121

which is very similar or almost the exact same thing to Chinese yu tiao.

122

So he's got this big thing of dough that he's cut into strips.

123

He takes one of the strips, cuts it in half, and then presses them together with almost like a big chopstick.

124

Then they go stretched right into the oil

125

and then they've got more surface area

126

that way since he's put two of them

127

so they kind of pop up and then fried until golden crispy and then we're gonna dip it in tea.

128

So this is a really creamy malari.

129

Check out this giant cauldron of oil cooking away.

130

Wow, so they take not very much time until they're completely golden crispy.

131

He's got the biggest chopsticks I've ever seen

132

and then once maybe just two minutes in the oil then they're ready to go.

133

So we're going to order some up and then have it with tea.

134

I said it was a stall

135

but really it's just a table right on the street like not even on the side of the street

136

we're like in the middle of the road

137

so we got the ijiaqoe

138

and then right beside them is another stall that's selling bay balata

139

which is almost like roti but it's stuffed with beans

140

and they've actually been here for 20 years in this stall here

141

and we're gonna order both up

142

and have them just across the street over here with some tea crazy

143

that they've been here in this little cart for 20 years selling this it's amazing

144

so at the tea shop that we're going to have all the snacks

145

that we've been gathering they also make naan so they've got this easy tandoor oven that's like

146

on an angle and it's just filled with charcoal

147

so he stretches the dough over this little pillow

148

and then sticks his whole arm in there slaps it on the top of the tandoor oven

149

and then he's just grabbing it out with his bare hand

150

and like the heat coming out of that thing is intense

151

so real old -school looking shop we're gonna sit down now there's our naan with our fried dough

152

and our palata and have it with teeth

153

Okay, we've got our spread of different bread items and then we've just ordered up tea, but this is a special tea they call Ceylon tea,

154

which has this beautiful thick top of milk curds and you're supposed to dip these guys in it.

155

So I'm just going to rip this off and just go for a full submergent.

156

Oh yeah.

157

Oh, the tea's sweet and then this just soaks it up completely.

158

It completely saturates it.

159

Let's see if I can get some of those curds.

160

There we go.

161

Very good.

162

Very rich, creamy.

163

This is like a pillow, like a fried pillow.

164

Okay, next up I'm going to try these beans with the naan and they call it be nanbia.

165

So I'm gonna mix these guys up and then just pour them right in the middle here.

166

And that naan's fresh out of the charcoal oven.

167

Rip some of that off.

168

And then grab some of these.

169

They're sweet actually.

170

I was not expecting that at all.

171

I thought it was gonna be a lot more savory.

172

And it was also the favorite dish of the godfather in Myanmar.

173

Yeah, for John's favorite breakfast dish.

174

You can actually see the little sprouts on these peas here.

175

And yeah, like I said, a lot sweeter than I thought.

176

This is how you really feel like a local in Myanmar.

177

Sitting at the tea shop.

178

This might take a little getting used to to wrap your head around the chunkies in there, the floaties

179

but actually really nice.

180

One more to try.

181

This is the bay balata.

182

So it's been fried with those beans inside.

183

Just simple snacks, mostly fried.

184

And then everything's complemented by the tea.

185

Just sitting watching the city wake up, watching the naan being made, it's pretty amazing.

186

Such a cool experience.

187

This shop is just so old school.

188

Like the signs on the wall look like, I don't know, they've been there for decades.

189

That's about as local as it gets.

190

It feels like stepping back in time in that tea shop. So cool.

191

So we're just strolling through one of the many morning markets here in Yangon

192

and we spotted this lady here who's selling the Banana stem

193

that we had in the mohingya this morning really delicious ingredient really unique stuff

194

Everybody's so smiley and friendly

195

Check out all the wires here.

196

They're just running every

197

which way I feel bad for the dude whose job it is to have to replace one of those

198

and it's an interesting sort of aesthetic here.

199

The buildings weirdly remind me of like

200

Hong Kong in a way.

201

They're really derelict but it is really cool for photography.

202

It's a particular type of aesthetic.

203

This market is bustling.

204

You can really feel the morning vibes here in Yangon.

205

Thank you.

206

Oh rats, big rats.

207

So we spotted these friendly ladies selling another popular breakfast dish here in Yangon.

208

So it's basically just black sticky rice.

209

She sprinkles a little bit of sesame seeds

210

that have been ground with salt and then it's just topped with some shredded coconut, fresh, freshly shredded coconut.

211

Let's give it a little taste.

212

Really sticky, sticky rice.

213

It's quite salty.

214

Good.

215

Very good.

216

It's a little bit salty.

217

Quite a bit of salt.

218

But the coconut kind of balances it out.

219

Really chewy, sticky rice.

220

It's pretty plain, but good.

221

Thank you.

222

Okay, our next stop is a total hole in the wall hidden gem

223

and you'll only be able to find it

224

if you go on a food tour with Sabah street food tours somewhere in here.

225

So this hidden spot is serving puff pastries

226

so you know Myanmar has a British colonial past

227

so perhaps there is some influence here because we've got one kind

228

that is like a curry goat but it's just like like a pie from England and you can see really fluffy,

229

thin pastry with curry goat inside.

230

And if you look down by my feet here, we've got some friends.

231

Oh my gosh, they're all coming.

232

They want some curry goat puffs.

233

I'm going to try mine first.

234

They're hoping I'm going to drop some.

235

Oh my gosh, that is awesome.

236

It's got a little bit of filling but the pastry is so flaky and buttery.

237

A hint of curry from Super Tender Coat.

238

Hi guys.

239

So buttery, flaky, it's amazing.

240

This is like French level pastry, seriously. So delicate.

241

Yeah.

242

Please don't pee on me.

243

Oh my god.

244

Oh my god!

245

Like three months old.

246

How many of them is there?

247

Four?

248

Canada's house.

249

Four.

250

Four.

251

Four.

252

Three of them.

253

Okay.

254

You want to come to Canada?

255

Here, sit there.

256

Oh!

257

Oh!

258

Okay, so we've got another pastry, puff pastry.

259

These ones are sweet, filled with coconut.

260

You can see a little bit of the coconut sort of pouring out the side there.

261

Listen to this crunch.

262

Mmm, oh my god.

263

Oh my god.

264

For me, this is like perfect breakfast.

265

Sweet, buttery.

266

Look at how airy the inside of that is.

267

It's like so, so delicate and fluffy.

268

That is phenomenal.

269

Sweet coconut flavor, but also a little smoky.

270

Really good.

271

Wow.

272

The crunch is like the next level.

273

It's not greasy at all, actually.

274

It's really good.

275

I can't eat.

276

I need to play with the cat.

277

The coconut inside of that pastry is so good.

278

You can tell that the quality of the coconuts here in Myanmar is so, so fresh and delicious.

279

Not only just a little bit of sugar, so it gives it a sweetness.

280

But everybody doesn't care about the pastries anymore.

281

We're just worried about the cat now.

282

You're not bringing one home.

283

Have you ever heard of cat distribution system?

284

Yeah.

285

This is it.

286

This is it.

287

That was maybe my favorite bite of the day, that coconut puff pastry.

288

So, so delicious.

289

That's going to be it for our breakfast tour.

290

Huge thank you to Mark and Sandy from Saba Street Food Tours.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
