I ordered the Shan Noodle Soup when we went to the Little Myanmar restaurant in NYC. The soup itself was a chicken-based broth. The rice noodles were very thin and slightly stretchier than ramen noodles. The most interesting part of the dish was the nuts on top–the crunchy texture contrasted nicely against the other elements of the soup. In general Burmese food seems to incorporate elements from Thai, Chinese, and Indian cuisine and then add nuts or some other item to incorporate multiple textures in every dish.
