  • “This is definitely more difficult than having a restaurant. You have to bring the whole kitchen over here-pots, and pans, and plates.” Spend a day behind the scenes at the Queens Night Market with chef Myo Lin Thway who has been serving his 'Burmese Bites' in New York City for over 25 years-and is now dishing up over 500 plates a day to adoring patrons.
