 Gastronomy

Cambodian cuisine, which is quite similar to its Thai or Vietnamese neighbours, is simple, varied, and moderately spicy: soups, salads of raw vegetables based on papaya, dishes of meat or fish, always accompanied by rice. A lot of preparation goes into a fish brine (prahok), whose taste can shock western palates. Heritage from the French Protectorate, bread as a baguette, a rarity in Asia, is often found in town. Do not miss the shellfish by the seaside in the south, which are delicious. As for drinks, you have a choice between tea, of course, and the makes of local beers, like Angkor Beer, which is light and pleasant.
