Kampot - trip report

Do you have a Cambodian trip report you want to share? Post it here, and feel free to link to your blog if it's a travel blog for Cambodia, South East Asia, or anywhere really. You can ask and answer questions about travel advice in Cambodia or just share your pictures and videos with us. Most people who live in or visit Cambodia have also checked out nearby countries like Vietnam, Thailand, Laos, Myanmar, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines, and you can get to most of these countries by traveling overland, so put any travel plans, reviews or questions here. Discussions about dirt bike trails in here as well.

BTW, they have a barang chef. As does Jetzt and the Scnitzelhaus. Makes a difference.
I live Jetzt, great burgers.wished I could get a full English like that in PP. Will have to give these little pigs a go next time I'm there.

The @Jamie_Lambo full English thread is now way out of date (good effort, just things seems to change quickly here), if anyone has a recommendation I would be very happy, can start/update the old thread if you have :beer3:
i had a couple of full english brekkis at Shenannigans in december after i finished my quarantine as its a decent breakfast, and still was, but since early this year Shenannigans (building) has also changed and is now half the size it once was, if its still open at all

No wonder the riverfront is NOT renovating and businesses are closed. They just waiting for the big offer for their (prime riverfront) land, existing buildings will be torn down, new chinese flash steel and glass highrise will be built. Just a matter of time. How sad. I hope I am wrong.
I understand that the old buildings (known as "colonials") on central riverfront are protected, yes really protected. Cannot be torn down. The big Chinese development on the riverfront is just outside the protected zone. Running south from there through the old market, Oh Neil to Rikitiki is all protected. If Kampot really does develop in a massive way, it will end up with the heart being beautiful old buildings, surrounded by glass and steel.
The statement bolded above is incorrect. The big Chinese development is right in the middle of the protected zone! There is no protected zone if you have bucks... That big empty lot you are talking about, adjacent to the old bridge under development (and not Chinese) was formerly gov't property, I think... It should have been developed into a leafy green park with huge mango trees and a nice fountain in the middle.
