Village Voice<\/a> have just reviewed Kampuchea Noodle Bar, currently New York’s sole Cambodian restaurant. Their initial thoughts on the subtleties of the 17 dollar bowl of khtieav with filet mignon:<\/p>\n

..it’s a bit dull, partly due to the prim slices of filet flung into its depths. Use fatty stew beef, dude, and cook the fuck out of it!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

They also serve up a disturbing reminder at how bad a foreign take on fish amok<\/a> can really be:<\/p>\n

For years the city’s only Cambodian restaurant was Fort Greene’s South East Asian Cuisine, offering lots of Thai and Chinese dishes, but only a handful of uniquely Cambodian ones, including the amazing amok (a gingery mousse of pureed chicken) <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Cheers to John<\/a>, Austin<\/a> for the tip off.<\/p>\n
