Cambodian food seems pretty similar to Filipino food to me, especially the cheap, everyday variety. Less complex than other SEA food, it also uses lots of oil and garlic.

I stayed for a couple of weeks, ate every veg food imaginable. Definitely worth a return visit, I think it’s a place you have to “live in” for a bit to fully appreciate.

Everyone should try Betty Q’s KeKiam recipe, i did and they were so good and wonderful as an appetizer. I used the tawpe or beancurd wrapper which you can find at the freezer section of any Oriental store. Sensal is harder to find.

hi bettyq! naiintriga na ako sa award winning chocolate cake mo. may i also ask for a recipe? the one i am using now is found at the back of hershey’s cocoa can. like maricar, i’d like to have a taste of your award-winning choco cake. btw, the siomai is patok na patok! my pihikan son wolfed it down. i didnt find any labong, i thought of subbing ubod but when i tasted it, sabi ko parang di bagay. i think i made a good judgement of holding back the ubod. thank you thank you!

DUCORAL–oral immunization for cholera & salmonella but it has to be done in 2 consecutive weeks before you travel.

Wow, you are in Cambodia?!?
The bugs are everywhere, MM. And if you want to see for yourself where the tarantulas (the best-sellers) come from, just head to Kampong Cham, a few hours away from the city.

Cambodia is such an interesting country – and where else to witness a slice of Cambodian life than its markets.

The noodle stalls reminded me of the palengke carinderia me and whoever relative I was with went to whenever we were to go to the public market in Bauan, Batangas and in BiÃ±an, Laguna. If I am not a pesky child they will bring me to these places to have a bowl of pospas or sopas with tokwa at baboy or those fat noodles with orange sauce and of course the UFC-styled spaghetti.=)

Every now and then if I get the chance I still eat at those stalls, but recently the quality of the very popular one in BiÃ±an already diminished. Even those stalls in my hometown also change in quality and taste. But a few good ones are left.=)

I bet you really wanted to eat at those stalls MarketMan=P

For the hygenic concerns, mental note: get Hepa shots and always bring a lot of diatabs when going to some foreign land.=) Street foods should never be missed! hihihihi!=)
