Cambodian Street Food Discovery on Sun 19 May 24
Cambodian Street Food Discovery
The Cambodian culinary experience can be a fun, exotic, and incredibly unique, especially with local knowledge. Eat as the locals do, sampling local delicacies at local markets, street food stalls, and hidden restaurants. These carefully selected venues is a comfortable way of experiencing `street-eats' with a local expert!

Cambodian Street Food Discovery
Bring an appetite and sense of adventure on this unique Siem Reap nightlife tour. After sunset, travel by remork (Cambodian tuk-tuk) to Street 60 on the outskirts of town. Busy most every night, this street has the feel of a night market with locals throwing down bamboo mats to enjoy a smorgasbord of freshly cooked dishes. It's an evening picnic of barbecue heaven. The aromatic smells will certainly make the mouth water. Make a stop at a stall famous for its pickled fruit and fried insects. These are popular snacks for the Cambodian people. Taste the contrasting flavors of sour fruit dipped in a salty and spicy dip, or try a selection of crispy crickets, grasshoppers, or silkworms.
Then, head over to the Sombai rice wine workshop to sample a selection of spirits made from fermented rice. Taste the unusual concoctions infused with local fruits and herbs, accompanied by local snacks. This is a great break of the culinary adventure!
Continue the culinary adventure to Wat Damnak to the handful of smoke-filled corrugated-iron roofed shacks and fancier open-sided eateries on Wat Damnak Street, for one of Siem Reap's most popular street food snacks, sach ko ang jakak, (beef skewers) marinated in palm sugar, soy and kroeung (a paste of lemongrass, galangal, turmeric, kaffir lime, garlic), and then barbecued over coals on a traditional clay grill. Cambodians love barbecue. All well and delicious, but what truly qualifies this barbecued beef is its accompaniment: a sweet-sour pickle-salad of thick cucumber slices finely shredded green papaya and ginger.
Next, explore the streets around Psar Chas (Old Market), which are lined with various stalls selling pancakes, fruit shakes, fried bananas, waffles, coconut rice cakes, and various fried rice and noodle dishes. Sit down anywhere and enjoy anything at leisure! Make sure to stop at one of the many fresh fruit stalls to try a range of exotic local fruit, including dragon fruit, longans, mangoes, mangosteens, snake fruit, and the pungent but very tasty durian!
Continue the foodie adventure and drop by a famous local ice cream shop just off the popular Pub Street. There are a lot of ice cream shops in town but Gelato Lab is truly special. Pick a flavour of ice cream or sorbet that's bursting with the pure taste of organic milk, local fruits, chocolate, nuts, Madagascar vanilla and other flavours. This stop will mark the end of the tour. Be driven safely back to the hotel, or dropped off anywhere in the city center of Siem Reap.
