BKKTRAPPER goes to Osaka
Re: BKKTRAPPER goes to Osaka
True, but it's reasonably cheap to eat out in western restaurants, which probably accounts for the majority of foreigners eating habits in Shv . Meats and such can only be so cheap regardless of the country one is in. (not to mention subsidised industries in developped countries that keep meat and dairy product prices below or near cost in some cases.)juansweetpotato wrote:And this from one of the world's most developed economies.

I was also a frequent customer of Bikuri ramen and Osho restaurant, Yoshinoya, have really cheap food for decent price.
Oden is cheap too, anything from any Lawson, Family Mart, etc. There sandwich is good, fry chicken, nigiri, meat dumpling, etc only for 100-150 yen, then if there is street food, have okonomiyaki, takoyaki, grill chicken...really anything on street is cheap but very tasty and "heavy". God, you make me miss home now.
I can get a decent meal here if I buy specials and cook it myself for around $1-1.50. It should be more like 15- 20c. Like it always used to be until the 'neo- economists' turned up.

Sure, the demand for meat has risen with the new middle class wealth. Therefore prices have risen I think (hope) until the market catches up.Raybull wrote:True, but it's reasonably cheap to eat out in western restaurants, which probably accounts for the majority of foreigners eating habits in Shv .

Re: BKKTRAPPER goes to Osaka
the supermarkets are pants here, and over priced, i save lots of money on cooking my own "breakfasts/lunches" and shit cooking some pasta or making some sandwiches/omlettes, cereal etc... but when you can go out and get a meal + Beer for $3 at snooky bar for example, its really not worth cooking at home half the time (being a single lad), although i am going to start attempting to try cooking more dishes at home

^^The two reasons I eat at home in Cambodia are mainly
1. I don't get food poisoning on my own food
2. I know what ingredients go into my food and that it's relatively safe.
Otherwise though, you're right, it is very cheap to eat out in Cambodia.

I used to use a pick up method that involved telling chicks how much I enjoy snuggling...worked everytime because spooning always leads to forking.
