A Restaurant Inspired by Storytelling
Every Burma Burma restaurant has its own inspiration, a different story that shapes the space and the experience. In Chandigarh, we drew from the world of Burmese folk tales, where animals are the storytellers and the lessons are woven into everyday life. Here, the crocodile, lion, fox, stork and crab are not just characters on a wall, but guides that lead the narrative of the restaurant.
Animals in Burmese Folk Tales
In Burmese folklore, the crocodile is often seen as a symbol of power and patience. It is a creature that waits silently, reminding us that strength is sometimes quiet and still. The lion stands for courage and leadership, a reminder that bravery is not loud but steady. The fox is the clever trickster, a symbol of wit and adaptability, showing that intelligence can be the greatest form of strength. The stork represents patience and devotion, often seen as a gentle messenger of loyalty and care. The crab carries the lesson of resilience, moving forward despite obstacles and always finding a way to keep going. These animals are not simply stories, but reflections of life, and their meanings have been passed down through generations as lessons wrapped in myth.
How the Story Comes Alive in the Space
At Burma Burma Chandigarh, these creatures are brought to life through art and architecture. The murals trace the stories in expressive lines and bold colours, turning walls into pages of a living book. The puppet wall, with its handcrafted dolls and figures, gives the folk tales a sense of movement and nostalgia, as if the characters might step down from the wall and join the table.
Culture and craft met comfort in every corner, every detail posing as an opportunity for a new discovery.
