Almost all of Pyin Oo Lwin's eating places offer Shan and Chinese cuisine.  There are three or four Indian curry specialists, and a growing number offering Burmese mohinga and Thai recipes.  There are innumerable teashops serving quite basic food (Shan noodles, for example), and many outdoor foodstalls spring up near the markets in the late afternoon.  This list assumes that visitors on a tight budget will easily find places to eat authentic Myanmar meals, and includes only those eating places suitable for all visitors.The newest restaurant in Pyin Oo Lwin is The Club Terrace, 25 Club Road.  Good service, lovely ambience both inside and outside, normal prices.  Definitely worth a visit, especially in the evenings for food or a leisurely sundowner. 

All of the higher priced hotels serve lunch and dinner, though it is always best to check in advance that specific menus will be available.  Otherwise, the choice for the visitor is generally one of ambience - inside or outside, noisy or quiet.  Remember that locals eat quite early (by European standards), with lunch often starting at 11am, and dinner from 6pm.  Most restaurants stop serving by about 9pm.
