Update: Fahrenheit is now closed.

For craft drinks and Mexican fusion food in Yangon, Myanmar, head to Fahrenheit Cafe and Bar. It's open daily from 5 to 11PM, and is the perfect pre-party place to be in the city.

Prices for both food and drinks are quite reasonable. Watch for promotions such as "$1 Taco Night" on Mondays, and $3 cocktails from 4-7PM every Friday. Enjoy an array of Mexican flavors such as chips and guacamole, quesadillas, tacos, and burritos with a twist. My absolute favorite is the pork burrito, and I can normally be found shoving it my face in some corner of the bar. Vegetarian options are also available.

What I love most about Fahrenheit; however, is its warm ambiance and modish decor. A bustling crowd almost always gathers, and a familiar, friendly face isn't hard to spot. Locals and expats alike seem to find Fahrenheit one of Yangon's best new additions to the bar and cafe scene.
