Part 4 : Food-Hunting in Siem Reap

Are we going around the globe or what?! Haha! Now that we're already hunting in Siem Reap... I'm sure some of us might be wondering what to eat in Siem Reap. Well, there are loads of good local delicacies there. And for sure, tempting enough for me to try.

When I always travelling with PYO Travel, I was brought to a local restaurant which serve mouth-watering local dishes and also a presentation of Khmer traditional dance show at the same time. That was quite an interesting (yummy) experience! Haha!

1) Amok

This is so much similar to the Malaysian version otak-otak! Nicely steamed and grilled in banana leaves. They use catfish meat to make this delicacy. Good & tasty!

2) Sngou Trolach Nyuk Bongkong
Never mind the spelling and pronunciation. I simply call this stuffed gourd with minced meat & prawns. The gourd was fresh and the prawns as well. Very nice to eat with rice. The soup was clear and very sweet.

3) Bok Lahong
A very simple and mouth-watering appetizer. Sweet and sour, with a bit of spicy. Extra points for the crunchy texture from the peanuts, cucumber and raw papaya. Simply irresistable!

4) Somlor Machu Kreung Ktih Sach Chrook
I love kangkung! This is a dish specially made for me! Haha! With some ribs and beef tendon, the flavour just rush into your mouth. You can also taste some lemon grass and assam in the soup.

Had a great time there in Siem Reap and let not the food-hunting spirit stop! Click PYO Travel to experience the excitement yourself.
