I have to eat rice everyday, without rice i would feel full . It reminded me when i was travelling with my friends to Battambang, i was the only Cambodia. Most of the time we went to khmer restaurants, but they also have western foods. So it was not a big deal as they could still order western foods and i could order khmer foods. However, on the last day we went to a completely western restaurant for breakfast. I was looking for rice and some fried pork stick, but it was not available. So, i walked to 2 blocks away to get some khmer breakfast takeaway to join with them. I really can't eat bread with fried age or bacon for breakfast .

being an englishman, and being a british builder, we pride ourselves in out full english fry up, i love cooking them i love eating them, im not surprised you cant eat them over here as they taste very poor, you need english sausages and english bacon and english beans and some hp sauce, the closest ive come to a decent breakfast out here is at snookys bar in sihanoukville only $4.50 inc a cup of tea, the only dissapointing thing about their brekki though is they claim to do a lincolnshire breakfast using lincolnshire sausages, im from lincolnshire, and they are definitaly not lincolnshire sausages, but apart from that its a hearty breakfast

after spending some time in my friends village in kampong cham province, ive grown very fond of pork and rice, the decent pork thats been marinated in like soy sauce or something i cant get enough of it, theres a stall at the little market at the golden lions that do a big slab of pork bbq'd and rice for 5000riel its amazing! i might have to go pick some up now haha

You have to come to the city to get some fast food, you can't just eat rice. I think you get fast food in the city of Kampong Cham, for me i am fine having rice all the time.

Considering that I have lived in rural Cambodia for more than 10 years with a Cambodian wife and don't just live with Cambodians but live like them, I knew that there would be rice, but I have finally grown tired of it. I don't really want fast food, I want good Western food and since Tanya closed her place, there are only cheap tourist imitations of our food. Good Cambodian food is hard to beat, but due to poverty it is only served on special occasions.
