Phnomenon: food in Cambodia

Yes, I always laugh at my sour soup that way

Continuing with the Phnomenon/RealThai love-in, Austin over at RealThai reviews one of my favourite Khmer restaurants in Phnom Penh: Sweet CafĂ© on St.294. For potential stalkers, it opens with a photo of me looking mighty pleased at my bowl of samlor machou yuon and follows with some beautifully shot images of amok trei (fish amok), porng tea trei prama (semi-dried fish omelette, with a hearty dose of fatty pork and a much less hearty dose of trei prama), bok svay (pounded green mango salad with deep-fried dried fish) and the aforementioned sour “Vietnamese” soup. Also featured is a photo essay on various food vendors around Phnom Penh.

    It’s such a pleasure to know that my writing gives off a “fat old geezer” vibe

    Hey, but you should be happy that me and Jodi think you’re cute!
    I don’t think it’s a fat old geezer vibe, I guess you just get random mental images of people. Anyway, I like fat old geezers, I’m a female version of one. :-D
