Dining Out in
Siem Reap
For a comparatively small town, Siem
Reap offers an amazing range of cuisines and dining venues. The
emphasis is, of course, on Khmer food, which can be found at
restaurants across town, but European and other Asian cuisines
are also well represented, including Italian, Thai, German,
Vietnamese, Indian, Chinese, Korean, Japanese and, of course,
French. Given Cambodia's long relationship with France and
France's gastronomic traditions, it is no surprise some of the
town’s finest venues offer French cuisine. Also of interest to
the gastronome, some finer venues are offering Khmer fusion and
contemporary cuisines quite unique to Cambodia. Restaurants are
scattered across the town but none is more than a 5-minute
tuk-tuk ride away. Many restaurants, including several
specializing in Khmer food, are concentrated in the
Old Market
area, especially around ‘Pub Street.’ Listings in dark blue
offer a bar/nightlife venue in addition to being a restaurant.
Listings in maroon also offer a traditional performances. Listings in maroon offer
traditional performances. See
Traditional Performances for more details.
