Eating in Cambodia - Cambodia blog entry #22

I know that most of you had your big turkey dinner yesterday and probably don’t want to think about food today. We’re having our dinner tomorrow, so I’m still looking forward to turkey, taters, and stuffin’.

And since I’m thinking about eats, here are random pictures of some of the food we ate on our trip to Cambodia. The food at the volunteer house was simple but good. Reminded me a lot of what we eat in Kenya.

Breakfast at the house was usually fruit, fried eggs, pastries and bread of some sort.  

Most of the time, though, we ate out at various restaurants, all of them excellent. 

I’ll try to tell you what we ate where, but it’s not worth it for me to waste a lot of brain cells on it. Just go along with whatever I got here. 

And my travel partner is on another trip this week, so I don’t have to worry about her chiming in and correcting me. Hee, hee.

This was the chicken wrap I had at Eleven One Kitchen, Phnom Penh. 

I think H has the fish amok, or one of the "amok" dishes. She liked those a lot. 

D had some beef kabobs. 

And I rarely knew what K ordered - usually something either hot or weird. And no, I didn't take a picture of everyone's dish at every meal. 

Chicken sandwich at Rikitikitavi's in Kampot. 

Lasagna at the Monkey Republic in Kampot the next day. 

No idea what or where this was, but I loved when they served the rice in a little teepee.

I can't remember where this was at, but it was something that K ordered. That stuff on the left that looks like rice with flecks of red in it? The red stuff is hot red ants. I tried some. Yikes! I couldn't get the water in me fast enough. 

Duck Salad with something like mango juice to drink at the Cafe Indochina - a very fancy place. 

Our last official night out. Ate at another fancy place, the Titantic, and I had the water buffalo with baby corn, because I wanted to try something different that I knew I'd like. 

But you still can't beat comfort food. This was the French toast for breakfast at the Darling Pub Hostel in Siem Reap. Umm!
