Little Italy
(Alley West; mains US$4-12; 11am-11pm)
An elegant Italian restaurant that is much more af-
fordable than its sophisticated exterior might suggest. Wood-fired pizzas are produced up-
stairs and the menu includes a wide range of homemade pasta and imported Italian cuts.

Sushi Bar Koh Kong

(Pub St; mains US$3-12; 5-11pm)
The first sushi bar to open in the heart of old Siem Reap,
much of the seafood is locally sourced in Cambodia from - wait for it, Koh Kong - and
prices are tempting for Japanese cuisine.

;
Pithnou St; mains US$2-6; 6am-10pm; )
Downstairs it could be any
old cafe, albeit with a delightful selection of cakes, breads and homemade ice cream. Up-
stairs is another world of white minimalism, with beds to lounge on and free wi-fi. Light
bites, great sandwiches, filling specials and divine shakes, this place is the real deal. Many
new branches around town.

Psar Chaa
(mains US$1.50-4; 7am-9pm)
When it comes to cheap Khmer eats, Psar Chaa itself has
plenty of food stalls on the northwest side, all with signs and menus in English. These are
atmospheric places for a local meal at local-ish prices. Some dishes are on display, others
are freshly flash fried to order, but most are wholesome and filling.
