I've seen a few expats opening coffee shops, but what about a subway like sub shop? Some american style subs and some Khmer inspired subs. Do you think the khmer market ...

Here's some advice you can take to the bank: Move to Kampot and open a bar near the Old Market. Open whenever you feel like it, at least once or twice a week, sit around drinking beers with your mates, maybe smoke a few cigarettes or even a doobie.
