Order Online from Friends the Restaurant

I had to try the new online ordering at yourphnompenh.com, and I was happy when I found that Friends the Restaurant, which is one of my favorite restaurants in Phnom Penh, had online ordering.

I use to order online all the time when I was living in the States, so easy and convenient. It is especially convenient here in Cambodia when it at times can be hard to understand the restaurant staff on the phone. 

Anyway, I decide to order No. 28 Dara’s favorite Beef Tacos with Tomato Salsa, No. 1 Sundried Tomato Hummus on Crispy Wonton Wrappers, No. 4 Grilled Vegetables with Lemon and Olive Oil, and No. 15 French Fries Sweet Potatoes with Curry Mayonnaise. 

The tacos were great probably among the best tacos in Phnom Penh. The hummus and the grilled vegetables were good but not anything over the ordinary (I would still order them again). The Sweet Potato French Fries with Curry Mayonnaise is also one of my favorite, I really like the mayo in combination with the sweet potato. It is also an interesting twist of Cambodian food, in Cambodia you can find deep fried sweet potato among the street food but it is normally served with sugar, and the curry is also used in the Cambodian kitchen but never mixed with mayo. 

The online service was really easy and intuitive to use, I also liked that I could pin my house on the map so they really understands where I live. It took 36 min from the time I sent the order until I receive my food.

Lunch at Sugar Palm Restaurant

Yesterday I went shopping with my wife and we ended up having lunch at Sugar Palm Restaurant on Street 240, where you of course end up if you go shopping in Phnom Penh.

The Restaurant is quite small and they serve Khmer and Thai food, we ordered Chicken Satay and Chicken Basil. I was actully positivly suprised by the quality of the food here, the restaurant does not look like much from the outside but it was one of the best Chicken Satays i have had in Phnom Penh.

Lunch at Bopha Restaurant Titanic

We had a business lunch at Bopha Restaurant by the Riverside. I think it is a great place to take clients to try Khmer food. They have a nice view over the river and the service is good, but if you want to enjoy your lunch in a cool air-conditioned restaurant this is not the place. They even had traditional Khmer dancing when we were there.

We had Fish Amok served in Coconut, Khmer Beef Salad and Lok-lak.
