Travel Kampong Cham: Khmer Cuisine in Kampong Cham
Khmer Cuisine in Kampong Cham http://www.hotsia.com > Travel Kampong Cham > Khmer Cuisine in Kampong Cham Travel information for Kampong Cham, Cambodia. Hotel recommendations in Kampong Cham by mr.hotsia. Food options in Kampong Cham include many restaurants around the Kampong Cham market. There are food stalls selling grilled chicken, curry rice, with seating available. For tourists, there are also riverside restaurants along the Mekong River offering international cuisine, priced around 3 USD per dish. I recommend these for breakfast.
When traveling, try eating near the market. Look for made-to-order dishes like Bai Cha or Khmer fried rice—you'll enjoy them. For dinner, eat like the locals in Kampong Cham: try som tam (papaya salad), fried chicken by the Mekong River, or stir-fried noodles at the night market. The atmosphere is great. One food item I saw sold in many towns is small sun-dried snails. Passersby often taste them, and if they like them, they buy some. I haven't tried them yet, but they must be delicious. If you get a chance, try them. They are sun-dried on bamboo trays and sold widely.
I haven't tried them because after a severe stomach upset on my last trip, I am cautious about what I eat. I did try ordering food at the market during the day, where many locals from Kampong Cham eat. I must say that everywhere I went, people could speak Thai, so don't speak ill (which you shouldn't do anyway). When I ate, I met Thai speakers and ordered various dishes from food stalls. The food is similar to Thai cuisine and was acceptable to me.
The taste is not quite like home. I recommend ordering fried rice or Bai Cha from made-to-order stalls; they work better. mr.hotsia April 2012. Kampong Cham food travel.
