 Dining Out in Phnom Penh... Phnom Penh (map) offers an excellent selection of dining venues ranging from fine French and Khmer dining to American style bar & grills and budget Chinese noodle shops. But the emphasis is of course on Khmer (Cambodian) food. Khmer cuisine shares many similarities with other Southeast Asian foods and includes dishes such as curries, sates and fish-based meals, but Khmer cooking tends to be much more delicately spiced than other local cuisines and is rarely spicy hot. Chinese food is also very popular and Phnom Penh sports a goodly number and range of Chinese places from budget-priced noodle shops like Peking Canteen to top-end Chinese restaurants such as Xiang Palace at the InterContinental Phnom Penh Hotel.
      Most western cuisines are well-represented in Phnom Penh - pizzerias, home-cooked British and American food, contemporary delis and cafés, fine German, Italian and especially French restaurants. Given Cambodia's long relationship with France and France's gastronomic traditions, it is no surprise some of Phnom Penh’s finest dining venues offer French cuisine. Many of the restaurants catering to tourists and visitors are clustered into certain areas of town. Dozens of restaurants and bars line the riverfront dining and shopping area near the Royal Palace. Street 278 and Boeng Keng Kang 1 is dotted with local and foreign restaurants. Budget eateries and bars can be found along Street 93 next to the Boeung Kak Lake, an area popular with backpackers.
