Where to Eat & Drink in Bagan

Bagan is still far enough off the tourist trail that there aren't many restaurants catering to tourists outside of hotels. We found only one worth mentioning. There are probably more.

Sunset Garden Restauant

Sunset Garden is the only place we found outside of our hotel that was worth recommending. The setting, on he banks of the Ayeyarwaddy River in New Bagan, would indeed make an excellent place to enjoy dinner while watching the sun set over the river. The menu is mostly local foods, with a limited selection of international dishes. Cost for a meal for two, excluding alcohol, was under 10,000 Kyats (US$10). Tel. 061 60224 [December 2005]
