I had the pleasure of dining at Pa Lian, a Burmese restaurant, yesterday during my lunch break, and it was an experience I will never forget. I discovered the restaurant on the Find Me Gluten-Free app, which praised its flavorful dishes and commitment to safety for those with gluten allergies. With such reassuring reviews, I had no reservations placing an order, and they certainly did not disappoint.
Originally planning to pick up my order and leave, I realized I had time to sit and savor my meal. The host (or perhaps server or owner) graciously took my to-go bag and insisted on plating my food for the full dining experience. While I waited, he kindly brought me a complimentary bowl of chicken bone broth, which was a warm and delightful treat.
The entire visit was nothing short of wonderful, from the delicious and safe gluten-free food to the exceptional service and the inviting atmosphere. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal without any concerns about cross-contamination, and I did not have a reaction afterward.
As someone of Filipino descent, I found their dishes reminiscent of the flavors my late mother used to create, providing a sense of comfort and nostalgia that made the experience even more special. The staff at Pa Lian went above and beyond to make me feel at home and comfortable, and I cannot wait to return with friends and family to share this gem of a restaurant.
Pa Lian is truly deserving of a 5-star review and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking an unforgettable, heartwarming, and safe gluten-free dining experience.
