Burmese restaurant at Peninsula Plaza serving authentic Myanmar cuisine
Zay Yar Restaurant is a Burmese dining establishment at Peninsula Plaza, level 3, serving authentic Myanmar cuisine to Singapore's Burmese community and adventurous diners. Peninsula Plaza has long been the centre of Burmese social and commercial life in Singapore, and Zay Yar is among the restaurants that anchor this cultural enclave, offering homestyle Burmese cooking in a no-frills setting.|||The menu features Burmese classics such as mohinga—fish broth noodle soup with banana stem and crispy fritters—and laphet thoke, the iconic fermented tea leaf salad. Various curries, including pork, chicken, and fish, are served with rice and an array of accompanying condiments. The flavours are distinct from the more familiar Southeast Asian cuisines, with an emphasis on sour, salty, and umami notes.|||At Peninsula Plaza, Zay Yar provides a taste of Myanmar in a setting that feels authentic and communal. The restaurant is a gathering place for the Burmese diaspora in Singapore, and its level 3 location offers a quieter, more spacious dining environment than the basement-level stalls. For non-Burmese diners, it is an accessible introduction to a cuisine that is underrepresented in Singapore's broader food scene.Based on 62 Google reviews
