Burma Superstar opened on Clement Street in the Richmond District in 1992 and helped establish San Francisco as the largest centre of Burmese cuisine outside Burma. The Bay Area is home to one of the largest Burmese diasporas in the US, and the city's Burmese restaurants codified versions of ohn no khao swe and tea-leaf salad that travelled back into the broader American food press. Burma Superstar's queue runs nightly; its sibling Burma Love and several Burmese restaurants citywide carry the genre.
