Deli Delicacies

Gourmet sandwiches, homemade gelato and foreign wine please the palette at Sharky’s in Yangon

By KYAW PHYO THA

if you’re craving some good deli food, the offerings at Sharky’s in Yangon won’t disappoint.

The 10-year-old eatery sells groceries on the ground floor, with a range of deli meats, French bread, fresh salads, yogurt, cheese, jam and ice cream.

At a relaxed dining space upstairs with wooden seats, large windows and plenty of paintings, you can order signature dishes such as golden beef tenderloin, slow cooked butterfish or thincrust pizza.

Many of the ingredients are locally grown.

“That distinguishes us from our counterparts in neighboring countries,” said U Thaw Tar, the eatery’s director of operations.

For gelato buffs, Sharky’s also serves more than 10 varieties of homemade, premium flavors that earn high praise from the shop’s patrons, of which more than 60 percent are foreigners.

Sharky’s also sells more than 20 types of wine, including red, white and dessert varieties from France, Italy, Australia, Chile, Argentina, South Africa and New Zealand.
