Go to place, favourite meal

Discussions about restaurants, cafes, coffee shops or bars in Cambodia. Feel free to write any reviews you have, whether its the best burger you've had in Phnom Penh or the worse pizza in Kampot, we want to read it! Discussions about Khmer dishes are also in here, or you can leave your own. If you own a restaurant, feel free to let the expat community know about it here so that we can come check it out. Found a favorite cafe or have a place we should avoid? Tell us about it. Asian recipes & questions are always welcome.

Just finished a takeaway creme caramel from Alma's - best I've had in Bodge.

Had a lunch meeting at Mike's Burger House yesterday, first time there, will definitely not be the last. American-style diner and menu, Mike was working the tables and is a great host.

+1

Alma, Buffalo Sister and Sesame Noodle are all good lunch options in that part of town. Best to get to Alma at approx 11.45 for lunch ahead of the rush.
Or a little later after the rush.

↑PS I'm going to frame my "+1" from KIR, I hear they're a rare commodity

Last night we went to Chez Gaston which is tucked away in a quiet street behind Psar Kandal. Me, missus KiR and Alex (who used to write front page pieces for K440) and we had a really excellent French bistro meal. It's not cheap as mains are around $12 but its a lovely place to eat if you enjoy eating in a deeply French environment with regulars at the bar sipping pastis, a chalkboard menu and a decent wine list.

Not awful. Very good. But it does require an educated palate, so obviously not ideal for somebody raised on beer, burgers and tacos.

Chez Gaston is good and very moderately priced. La Marmite is also very good and extremely good value.
