"Cambodia’s Most Debauched Night Market Is a Neverland of Booze and Food
BY ANNIE MERKLEY
February 1, 2016
In the Cambodian jungle, just off the alabaster sandy stretches of Otres Beach, there is a place like Neverland, where there are no rules nor regulations and people are partying. Hard.
On Saturday evenings during the dry season, the dirt road in Otres Village, Sihanoukville, becomes a flurry of activity as the night market springs into action.Otres Market is a festival environment of live music, high-quality craft cocktails, and a parade of international cooking skills.
The village is a mixture of locals and wayward foreigners that have come to set up camp and live far from the constraints of Western society, many of whom seem to have stepped right out of a Jack Kerouac or Hunter S. Thompson novel. There are no building codes or food safety supervisors here, giving people the freedom to create and cook whatever they feel like. People are reinventing themselves, getting as shitfaced as they want, and serving up incredibly delicious food. It’s where all the black sheep come to live and party from dusk until daylight.
At the heart of Otres Market are Aussie mates Dave Allen and Andy “Salty” Mann, along with Salty’s Cambodian fiancée..."

The drive back from Otres Market is not really different than in the day, apart from the fact it's dark and everyone on the road is shitfaced. Getting out of the market at night is a bit tricky in a truck, probably easier by moto, as people mill about bollocksed in the road and by then people have parked all over the shop. You have to weave out the black woods dodging surprise obstacles. Drinks and food are event price not bar price. Some geezer on facebook has been hawking mushroom grow kits so you might be able to find some nice snacks when you're there.

The mycologist you so flippantly refer to as a geezer is called Jason Blane, a most excellent African colonial chap of good Scots heritage.
He sells his home mushroom kits on Facebook quite openly as it is entirely legal to do so in the Kingdom.
