A Burmese lunch in Brunei

I made a wonderful friend in Brunei. Despite being from two totally different cultures (Yin is from Burma), we seemed to have a lot in common! Yin made Brunei feel like home. I loved spending time with Yin and her daughter, Thin Kyi. The week before I left Brunei, they invited me over for a traditional Burmese lunch. It was wonderful! Of course I ate too much—I’m blaming Yin’s mother for that since she insisted I have seconds of everything. Yin’s beautiful niece lives with her and did all the preparation. I’m really hoping they can visit the US so I can return the hospitality! The photos below were taken in Yin's house and her neighborhood.
