Hello, you can call me Moulmein Thu.

It means lady from Moulmein (now with its original name of Mawlamyine). I was born in Moulmein and later moved to Yangon before moving to Singapore when i was ten years old.

Moulmein is the third largest city of Myanmar (formerly Burma) after Yangon and Mandalay. It is also the capital of Mon State and a seaport. Moulmein is famous for its tropical fruits and for its cuisine.

There is this popular Burmese expression, " Yangon for the bragging, Mandalay for the speaking and Moulmein for the eating".

When i started this blog in July 2009, it was mainly to showcase my humble culinary skills.

My Mum is a good cook and she is my 'Teacher'.
I'm still learning and "stealing" recipes from my Mum ;)
