Le Tamarin: Fusion Mediterranean Cuisine on rue 240
cochinjew profile photo
cochinjew 1686 reviews

Operated by a Francais Marocaine, this restaurant has a faithful clientele and when one of them suggested we dine there, it was more than a welcome news.
The decor is attractive, the lighting comfortable and we sat outside on wicker chairs with ample space in between tables.
Service is good as one expects that in Cambodia but not servile.
Obviously it is a favourite spot of many of the expatriate community since i saw people sitting sipping a glass of wine and reading a book. others like us had come there for conversation and the hours just slipped by.
recommend this resto
mezze libanais
couscous traditionel 2 tajine avec merguez 1

The Cavern Pub - Phnom Penh

The Cavern Pub is a English style pub set on 104st in Phnom Penh. The street 104 is better known for the large number hostess bars on it.

Being an English pub the food style is British and the price range is around the $6 for a large main dish.

The daily specials come with a free draught beer or soft drink so you can get a good steak with a beer on Thursday for around $7.

They have live music on Monday and a great collection of music and videos to choose from.

Favorite Dish: The filet steak on Thursday is aged in house then cooked sous vide style and finished on a char grill to give a nice charred flavour.

Khmer and Thai Cuisine and in fact the cuisine from the border areas of Cambodia-Thailand.
Lovely set up for a restaurant
a large resto indeed
you can sit on the floor on the first floor and feel the leaves
quiet street so not much noise
good service

Favorite Dish: Tom Yoong Seafood, not as spicy as the Thai version, this was a Khmer version
the dinner for two people came up to 19 dollars , seven of which was for two fruit smoothies.

Veiyo Tonle: Support the NCCLA Orphange

Sisowath Quay Entrance

Since the Friends Restaurant was closed on Sunday, I was looking for an alternative. I found the Veiyo Tonle (River Breeze) Restaurant in a brochure in the hotel. It too supports a good cause, the New Cambodia Children's Life Association (NCCLA), and was on Sisowath Quay just a few blocks from the Fancy Guesthouse where I was staying. Their Khmer food was so good that I ended up eating at Veiyo Tonle three times in 1.5 days. It is good value also.

Favorite Dish: The green curry chicken ($4.00) was spiced just right for me. It was a delicious stew with chicken, eggplant, potatoes and green beans. A little special touch is that their rice ($0.50) is served in the shape of a heart. Their traditional Cambodian fish amok ($4.50) was quite good also.

When I went back to Phnom Penh again in 2010, my guides and I met at the Khmer Surin Restaurant, mainly because Ms. Nara was guiding a group that was having dinner there. The food and service were quite good and the prices very reasonable. I ended up going back another time. The Trip Advisor reviews for Khmer Surin are good. It is ranked #35 of 284 in PP. They have both Khmer and Thai food. If you want, ask to be seated in one of the quieter, semi-private rooms on the left side of the restaurant.
