"Sure, sometimes there might just be a sign on the window announcing they happen to be closed on a random Thursday night, but that’s part of the adventure at this Burmese spot in the Richmond. Despite having as good if not better noodles and curries than Burma Superstar, Mandalay manages to stay less slammed. There’s plenty to explore on the menu, but the tea leaf salad, shredded pork with garlic, and coconut rice are good places to start." - taylor abrams, max child, will kamensky
"A Las Vegas resort that recreates a South Pacific vibe with a man-made sandy beach, wave pool, lazy river, and an on-site aquarium, providing tropical-style water attractions in the desert." - Patricia Doherty Patricia Doherty Patricia Doherty is a writer who specializes in covering destinations, resorts, and cruises for Travel + Leisure and other publications.

"There are a lot of worthy tea leaf salads in the city, but the one from Mandalay in the Richmond will keep you coming back like a seagull to an unattended Hellman Hollow picnic table. This version sings thanks to intensely funky flavor, perfect spice levels, and a complex crunch from the fried garlic, toasted lentil seeds, and peanuts. It’s mixed tableside, and, unlike many Burmese spots in town, served without cabbage or greens. Expect an extra nutty punch." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
"It’s impossible to be in a bad mood at this Burmese spot, thanks to the bright yellow walls and colorful umbrellas hanging overhead. That, and the fact that their dishes—from nutty tea leaf salads and coconut chicken noodle soup to pumpkin pork stew—explode with funky, savory, and sweet flavor. Come with a group, order enough food to cover every square inch of your table, and wash it all down with beer, sake, and $10 glasses of house wine." - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez
"Walking into Mandalay is the cure to a sh*tty day. Ornaments and hanging umbrellas decorate the bright yellow space, and the staff treats you like a regular even if you’ve never been in before. The hearty Burmese food will make your day, too. Tea leaf salad is nutty and crunchy, the balada has buttery layers, and jalapeños and chunks of mango balance out a sweet and savory mango chicken. Getting into a family-style spread of shareable dishes is the best way to forget about whatever you’ve been commiserating about." - julia chen 1
