Best Coffee

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Best Coffee

Post by Duncan »

I have only tried coffee a few times from the big sellers like Starbucks. Amazon. McDonalds and others.. and have never enjoyed one.
However I was in Malaysia in Nebong Tabal . way
up north. recently and in the early morning when everything was still closed. dying for a coffee. I sat down at a small side stall and had the best hot coffee I have ever had. And only cost 2.5 mr
It's not the first time that this has happen.
The big players have certainly got to learn something off the small players.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

I much prefer the coffee at dirty little viet style coffee shops in a small glass with sweet milk to the fancy coffee shops with expensive coffee making machines.

Problem with those is that they add things like soy beans, corn and even ground up batteries.

I walk each day about 0530 and end up at a small mum and pop kerb restaurant on 51 off 108. I have a home brewed hot coffee with sweet milk. Great way to start the day then walk another 30 mins home. =@

Apart from instant coffee, I am very fond of Vietnamese coffee.
Water quenches the thirst, alcohol releases the truth.

I buy a nice lao arabica let a sweet girl grind the beans for me on the spot.
Then I make my own coffee with a french press and drink it on the balcony.
Use kulen water for the coffee.
