When you visit Myanmar, you will encounter ah-lhu one day or
another. What is ah-lhu? It is in deed a religious donation
ceremony. People usually do ah-lhu when they donate food and
offerings to the monk or the monastry. It can be a sole even. Or
it can be in celebration for the wedding, anniversary, or to
mark the day a family member died. People usually do ah-lhu at
home or at the monastery. Usually, on the day of ah-lhu, monks
are invited to the home. They are then offered food and
offerings, after which monks recite Buddha’s scriptures and give
sermon. After the monks go back to the monastery, meal is served
to the invited gusts. This is usually a Burmese formal lunch,
although sometimes, it can be monhingha, a popular Burmese
noodle soup. Ah-lhu is an integral part of Myanmar Buddhist
life, and most Myanmar people, if they could afford, will do ah-
lhu quite frequently. - Mindat – a Southern Chin Town If you
