Yes! There were a lot of dishes in Thailand that we were familiar with, or at least that we had heard of. Not so in Cambodia. Surprised dishes like loc lak and kuy teav are totally unknown where we're from.
I’m Cambodian and unfortunately Thai cuisine has taken most of the lime light but our food is pretty much the same flavour wise and dishes wise. You just gotta know what to order. You were spot on about the fish. It’s meant to be like a jerky. It’s stinky, salty but delicious. It actually is meant to pair with congee.
Cambodia has a very different vibe than Thailand, but in a way it is like Thailand 40-50 years ago. It is really starting to develop, but it is a poor country. Something you might come across is a woman with a baby, begging for you to buy milk formula. I almost fell for it but some more experienced folks filled me in. The woman will ask to go to a very specific store and grabs a large size and it is really really expensive. like $50 or so. The scam is once you leave she returns it and gets a share of the money. Sad it happens, but the best thing to do is find a local school or orphanage and donate directly. With that being said I found the Cambodian people to be extremely generous, honest and kind.
Hey Dave. We are really, really late replying to this. But I just wanted to say that we did have a brush with that scam (very briefly). Thank you for alerting us to it, it is certainly the type of thing we would have fallen for otherwise.
I can say the scam can happened to any country, and yes Cambodia is poor country. My heart dropped every time I was there. You have a way to help the real needed people. Only give when they’re alone and be quick about it. I always change into Khmer riel to give so you won’t go broke yourself. Good luck and enjoy. Be honest it’s a cheap country to visit over all, compared to Thailand.
@@veznac5805 I am Cambodian, after the renovation of the city. We don’t really have those scam going around anymore. The city mayor have taken a good care of it already. If has it would probably be a few.
Thanks for visiting our country, and please feel free to spread the culture and beautiful temples to your families and friends. Have a wonderful trips in Cambodia.
Love watching you in a new country! We've been following since we were planning our trip to Thailand in December and just wanted to say how much we enjoy your vlogs. Love how low-key and authentic they are. So fun to keep up with y'all. Safe travels!
Hello Steph and Pete!! I am soooo happy to see you here. I am your subscriber since Thailand and I will be looking forward for you and our little angel Hays to come back after your world tour!! ♥️💕
@@OnePackWanderers No, I'll be landing in Phnom Penh, but then getting the bus to Siem Reap. I noticed that there are some larger full size buses available.
check out "buzz buzz buzz" youtube channel if your looking for a life partner over there. He has been with his beautiful Cambodian GF for 2.5 years now! :)
Just a tip or two about Cambodian food. If you ever think your food is bland, check for condiments that may have come with the dish. Often you are expected to spice up your own dish yourself. If you get served a dish of pepper and a lime wedge or two, squeeze the lime into the pepper and then dip into that. You'll thank me for that. One of the signature dishes of Cambodia is Fish Amok - a coconut-based curry. You can also get it with chicken or vegetarian. It's flavorful, but if you find it not spicy, feel free to add chilis or chili sauce. Be careful with the tiny, red chilis. Like in Thailand, they're super spicy. Finally, Cambodian and/or Anchor beer is best drunk very cold. Don't let them warm up.
It is hard moving from one place to another as you can sometimes feel flat as you loved the place where you just left. And it takes a little time to discover the new place. Take care Cathy and Kevs x
Love watching your videos! Kinda make me miss the good old days when I was a solo backpacker. My favourite Cambodian food was Nom banh chok ( curry noodles soup ). Full of flavour! Must try! The best one I had was literally by the street stand in Sihanoukville, sat on a stool with Cambodian kids and stuffed our faces with that dish and at the end I ended up paying for their meal. It was awesome! And took a picture with those kids at the end for great memories:) Happy Travel!
I love you both that you try everything local and embrace all things in the new country. Ps. I notice at the grocery store, many products are Thai. Not do many from Cambodia. 7/11 is from Thailand and also Major Cineplex movie theater.
When I was in Siam Reap a few years ago I tried this amazing fish curry called "amok". I think that's what it's called. Anyway, it's fantastic, as is Ankhor beer.
Oh no not the dried fish! It's a simple Khmer meal just to get through the day not meant to be tasty. It's salty so that you eat it with plain rice or rice porridge to offset the saltiness
Visit Phare the Cambodia Circus, the local night street at Road 60, Wat Bo Street 26 for some really nice restaurants and bars, the Bean Embassy for great coffee, Sister Srey by the Riveside for breakfast. After the temples do visit the Kulen Elephant Forest. Enjoy you time in Siem Reap. ❤️
Hey Tia & Cheveyo, you should definitely try Amok. We have that in Thailand too but the Cambodian version is really good and easy to eat. Beer is really CHEAP there. Cambodia has one of the most variety of river fishes in the world, but the way they prepare is not very appetizing - mostly it is dry fish then deep fry or grills it. Also, they are one of the biggest branded textile manufacturers, you can get a really good deal there. But you have to have a keen eye for it - 80% of it is like cheap quality counterfeit stuff. Fresh sugarcane juice almost put me into hospital for food poisoning, so beware. Oh and you should be more active on Instagram. I think people love to see still photograph too - of different places especially now that you are already there and most people still stuck with covid.
Thank you for the insight! We wondered about the quality of the clothing with it being so cheap! It doesn't seem possible to make a shirt for $1. Thanks for the warning about food poisoning. We are usually fairly adventurous with food, but we'll be careful here. We know we should be more active on Instagram 😅 We find it very difficult to get behind the stereotypical Instagram poses and stuff. But, you do make a good point. Cheers, and thanks for taking the time to write that out.
Please be careful at Pub Drinking Street in Siem Reap, we got pick pocketed on our first night. Only sour point on our last trip. Always love your videos, such a lovely fun couple, great adventures, thank you so much
Ah! Thank you for the warning. We have heard from more than one person that pickpocketing is common in some places in Cambodia. We will be vigilant! Thanks again.
Great video, I imagine it's going to take some time to become familiar with your new surroundings. Have fun doing that, looking forward to your next video 😀 Take care and thanks again for sharing 😊.
@One Pack Wanderers Try this restaurant called "HAVEN" in Siem Reap, they have the most testiest food made for a good cause. I went there 5 years ago and I've not forgotten the food taste from the restaurant. You will need to make reservation before visiting. They are open in the evenings only. The menu ranges from local to international foods. Give the restaurant a visit and I am very sure you will enjoy the food taste. Have fun 🙂
Love following your adventures in Cambodia. Despite the salty dishes I’m sure most of your viewers would rather be in your shoes); Travel safe and thanks for sharing.
Hey guys! Love your travel vlogs, keep up the great work! If you get the chance, head to Battambang after Siem Reap. The Phare Ponleu Selpak circus is fab and the bat caves are always worth checking out (ask your driver to take you to the second viewpoint. You hike up a hill and grab a beer from the local vendors...much more relaxed and so beautiful). We also loved thee town of Kampot...so chilled.......The islands are also worth checking out: Koh Rong and Koh Rong Sanloem. Have an amazing time!
Hey! Thanks a lot for the recommendations and tips! How long were you in Cambodia for? We (foolishly) didn't anticipate there would be so much here! There's quite a lot to this country 🙂
@@OnePackWanderers I had three weeks there luckily, but still not long enough :) Have a fantastic time in Bali, I am very jealous! The Gili islands are well worth a visit if you have time. Enjoy!
I could have told you that the dried fish you had is super salty and not the best tasting dish. This is coming from an American Cambodian. Cambodians usually eat that fot breakfast with rice porridge.
You guys such a sweet couple.. love your vids. I watched all Cambodia, Thailand and Bali so far! Keep traveling and taste good food guys! Peace out ✌️💎💎💎💯🍻Cheers!
This is my first time seeing your video. You both look enthusiastic.🥰 Visiting in Cambodia is great and I definitely recommend you to visit Angkor Wat temple, amazing and mind-blowing.
the shops look interesting , aspecially liked the places they sell buddah statues paintings and that sort of stuff not quite sure about the food though the pancake thing looked verry tasty the T shirts and stuff are cheap but from wat i understood from other video's the quality of them reflects the price
Excellent vlog. looks like covid hit SR hard.i rode the temples of ankor back in 2007 on new years day. it was hard work. keep up the vlogs. still travelling vicariously.
I think next time you should rent motorbike there it's easy for you. and you can go everywhere and almost cheaper then you rent tuktuk. welcome you to come Siem Reap
Cambodia is very hot and humid, with no breeze when we were there. We found it was best to go out in the mornings and evening, and stay in during the hottest part of the day. Not too many mosquitos, and it did cool down a bit at night 🙂 Rainy season is also starting, so that should help too. Have fun on your trip!
Thank you! That's helpful. I'm a mosquitoe magnet. Rain I'm used too being a Londoner but informed that brings them out more. But it's such a beautiful place and the people are so nice.
@@OnePackWanderers Because I like spicy and Thai foods have many tastes and in Cambodia they have just a few to add like sugar and sauce but nothing spicy. However, I think their foods, westerner will love because not spicy and not strong taste. Have a wonderful time at Ankor Wat. I would love to go Ankor wat again as when I went was so crowded for now I think you can enjoy as less tourist. Beware of over price taxi and etc. Be safe!
I'm really curious how hard it is to get around in Cambodia. I watch another TH-camr that lives in Laos and their roads are practically all dirt outside of the cities. You NEED a truck to get around most parts of the country.
Hi Bryan. It is not difficult to get around in Cambodia. The highway from Siemreap to Phnom Penh allows for a comfortable and fairly relaxing 5-hour drive. You DEFINITELY do not need a truck or even a SUV to get around in Cambodia, unless you get off the beaten track, of course, in which case you do need a SUV.
@@OnePackWanderers If only for 30 days. It is a tourist viza that cannot be extended. You may have to do a " viza run to Thailand, or other neighbouring countries. Cross the border, have a coffee, then come back with another 30 days. It seems that it is all bureaucratic madness, connected to ASEAN. I hope that will change in the future, if not. Very sad for Cambodia. I worked there for 8.5 yrs.
Yes about that dinner food. Big mistakes the way you guys eat them. Well it’s not your fault they should have thought that you guys are tourist , should have guid you both how to do step by step. But good video.
I live in Hanoi but i absolutely love Cambodian food! its too bad that it isnt better known internationally.

Before covid, all was open. I miss Cambodia so much but will be back hopefully very soon. Enjoy amazing Cambodia and take care (Bag/phone snapping)
oh I miss Siem Reap! Thanks for showing us the current situation over there. It is much different from the time before COVID.
Hopefully it can bounce back with travel getting easier. It really hit the area hard.
7 Eleven and Major cineplex in Cambodia also belong to Thai Company.
love seeing the happy dance when Tia gets a good desert
I love their food too😊. I hope you get some of the authentic dishes that you can’t find in Thailand or anywhere else.
I’m heading to Cambodia in June. Been watching all your Cambodia videos. Good production and great information. Thank you so much.

8:55 as a Cambodian I agree with you. I usually ate dry fish with porridge or rice with cold water.
Ahhh, okay, I think it would be better with porridge to cut the saltiness a bit 🙂

Dry fish that you eat is call "Trey Ngeat" hashah you need some watermelon with it for better taste.

Thanks you for your share!! Good experience with your video 👍👍👍🎉🎉❤️❤️❤️!

Hey guys u should check out pub street..
Indeed! We did go to Pub Street. Most of it was closed unfortunately, but there were a couple places open 🙂
The dried fish over rice is the most OG meal you can get lol
Yea some Cambodian people have told us it’s basically a traditional food that only eaten ‘to get through the day’. But hey, we tried it 😂
Doesn't look like it anywhere as busy as Bangkok.
Love your videos keep them coming
Nothing like Bangkok at all.
wow, I've never seen Pub Street that deserted at night.
It’s not pretty what Covid has done to some tourism-reliant places. Not fun to see.
