We spent a Saturday a week or so ago touring a local market and then going to a
 |
| Market |
local NGO called Graceworks to learn to learn how to cook in the Myanmar way. Graceworks is a social enterprise teaching cooking, English and computer skills to needy children who will be able to tour visitors around markets and teach them Myanmar cooking.. a bit like the Thai model I guess. some also get jobs in restaurants. This is the month when Bhuddists fundraise for the monastries so the markets were buzzing with vendors shoppers and fundraisers.
