5 of the Best Street Food Finds in Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia, is a sprawling city with a street food scene that’s enjoyed by the locals as well as tourists. Curious? We sampled several of the city’s sweet, savory and spicy delights. Join us as we try akor ktis (that’s rice cake), flaming beef, fried banana, fried balut (fertilized eggs) and banh chaef (a crepe stuffed with pork, chicken and shrimp).

This video genuinely made me happy, it’s nice to hear both the Khmer language and see the food as someone in the states

When it starts to cover the interesting stories from the lesser known places like Cambodia, I knew it will be a good coverage. Kudos!

Any Bodians watching this should probably be happy to see that their country is on a big af channel

I’m finally glad that there’s been a coverage on cambodian food that wasn’t focused on the creepy crawlers (like fried tarantulas or various beetles and worms 😅) like we got a ton of amazing food besides that!
