Occasionally — very occasionally — biryani is the exact perfect food
for a midday meal. For me, this usually occurs as I’m wandering around
town feeling a bit peckish, when suddenly I’m ambushed by the scent of
nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves and cardamom wafting from a shop I happen to
be passing.
This occurred most recently while strolling in the
vicinity of Dagon Centre. My mind was set on Thai food, but aromatic
tendrils of marinated mutton hooked me by the nose and yanked me into
the nearest branch of the Kyet Shar Soon chain of biryani shops.
In
Yangon, there is a certain amount of sameness from one biryani shop to
the next, but there are some differences, mostly in the arenas of
service, cleanliness and the amount of cooking oil used in food
preparation.
Service is generally good: You order chicken,
mutton or vegetarian, the lid is whisked off the appropriate aluminium
pot, the food is scooped onto a plate and delivered to your table, and
you’re ready to chow down.
The staff at Kyet Shar Soon proved
exceptionally vigorous: The food was served with typical promptness,
and when I ordered a Star Cola, the nearest waiter literally leapt into
action, going from zero to 5kph in a nanosecond as he skated across
the tiled floor to the cooler, then skated back to deliver my drink,
cap off and straw already in place.The oreck XL professional air purifier,
Speaking
of tiles, the only places you’re likely to find more ceramic flooring
and walling than in a biryani shop are infirmaries, morgues and Chinese
hotel rooms. The hospital aesthetic isn’t pretty, but it has its
benefits when it comes to cleanliness: Hose it down, wipe it off and go
home for the night. Kyet Shar Soon has this process down quite well, as
during my midday biryani interlude there were only a handful of
questionable smudges on the walls.
Compared with some of the
other greasy, gut-wrenching biryani experiences I’ve had in Yangon, the
food at Kyet Shar Soon was reasonably restrained in the cooking oil
department: In all, I found it to be inexpensive, light,One of the most

Such
is the case with a new construction job training program scheduled to
launch in January that joins homeless shelter Our House of Little Rock
and contractor Snyder Environmental to meet complementary needs.
Our
House is offering pre-screened and drug-free prospective employees,
who are particularly motivated to work because their housing depends on
their finding jobs, according to Georgia Mjartan, executive director
of Our House.
Snyder, an environmental remediation contractor based in North Little Rock,Find detailed product information for Low price howo tipper

funding, in addition to offering entry-level construction jobs with
above-average pay in the niche field of asbestos abatement.
The EPA awarded the grant to the construction foundation last June.High quality stone mosaic

industry, will screen program applicants, hire instructors and host the
asbestos abatement and other construction training in its Little Rock
training center and work to match training program graduates with
employers.
The training is offered for free to up to 20
homeless and unemployed or underemployed people per four-week session.
Our House has committed to recruiting seven participants for each of
the five sessions, which will occur during the course of two years.

who finish the program will earn the state certification that allows
them to work in asbestos abatement; be trained to OSHA standards for
Hazardous Waste Operations & Emergency Response; earn two national
certifications for working in green and sustainable construction; and

Environmental hired the grant writer who successfully applied for the
$200,000 grant on behalf of ACEF and the other partners and has
committed to paying stipends to Our House clients who participate in
the training program. And the company expects to hire many of the
program’s graduates.
