That's an internationally recognised gesture, and I have so far only found one Cambodian waiter who didn't understand it.

Just experienced a truly disgusting eating experience at Larry's.
I ordered chicken parmesan for the umpteenth time, it's usually good.
Eating in the shadows in a booth.
I'd eaten 4 or 5 mouthfuls before realising that the chicken was mostly raw. Had to use phone torch to confirm my fears.
I still feel like vomiting.
The utter clown running the place reacted by reassuring me that at least it wasn't raw pork I was eating. Lucky me!
Made a big deal of not charging me for the one beer I'd had.
I won't be back.

"Chicken has a reputation as a food safety nightmare. After all, raw chicken carries the salmonella bacteria, which is responsible for more cases of food poisoning than any other pathogen." It also can contain Campylobacter among other pathogens.

Hope he didn't charge you for chicken or replaced the meal!

Can someone define a proper Cambodian lady? There are pretty ex bar girls working at BMW and probably other retail outlets who demand eye candy.
Are the mistresses of the okneas proper Cambodian ladies or the second or third wives of politicians? Are models, pop stars or TV stars proper Cambodian ladies?
Some of the posters here seem to be self righteous judgemental arseholes. Lighten up fellas, life’s too short to worry about trivia. Maybe you should be back in the west where young women fuck multiple men like bunny rabbits.

Been sick as a dog all night.
A replacement meal was offered but there's no way I was going to eat anything else there.
If my guts are back to normal tomorrow I'm going to stand outside and tell would be Sunday lunchers not to risk a poisoning. Hopefully a few lost covers will remind the sloppy bastards about basic food safety.

This is Cambodia. What will most likely happen is someone will pay a few TukTuk drivers to take you to hospital, or maybe you will just be arrested for defamation. You may get more satisfaction reporting this to the people responsible for examining food hygiense at restaurants. they are cracking down and it will be far more inconvenient and costly for the owner to wriggle out of. tuk drivers are cheap

If you are happy tell the world.

If you are unhappy with the meal, tell the owner. I'm sure Larry has ears

I did tell him. He told me to be grateful it was raw chicken rather than raw pork.
