Our Culture

Our Culture

At Hunger Pangs, culture is not an aesthetic. It is a methodology.


Our culinary team makes regular research trips to Burma eating in homes, on streets, in tribal kitchens to ensure that what we put on the table is earned, not approximated. Our restaurant spaces are built the same way: through deep study of Burmese craft, architecture and visual tradition.


Every team here kitchen, design, marketing, operations works from the same starting point: go to the source, understand it completely and then build something worthy of it.

Our Culinary Philosophy

Our Culinary Philosophy

Burma Burma honours co-founder Ankit’s Burmese heritage, who grew up with recipes passed down through generations.

Chef Ansab Khan, who has been part of Burma Burma since its earliest days, has spent years travelling to Burma, sourcing ingredients from local markets, eating in homes and on streets, and translating those experiences into a menu that is both authentic and accessible.

Our culinary philosophy is not fusion. It is not an approximation. It is Burmese food understood deeply, prepared carefully and served with pride.
