We walked through the local street market, exploring Phnom Pehn and discovered a little restaurant a couple blocks up from the Tonle Sap River. Marc still raves that this was his favorite meal of the entire trip. The service was super friendly and maybe a little overly enthusiastic. The waitress stood by our table from almost the moment we sat down and kept asking to take our order before we really had a chance to look at the menu, but no harm in that. They didn’t speak much English but made up for the language barrier. The food was great and cheap! We loved it so much we wanted to return for dinner, but didn’t have the time. And the other plus, we were the only tourists in the whole place!

Favorite Dish:  For my first attempt at Khmer fare I chose the chicken with fried ginger, a dish that quickly became a personal favorite. Marc tried the crab in black pepper sauce and never stopped talking about it.
