Serendipity & Occheuteal
For romance, nothing beats dining on the water, either at one of the resorts at Serendipity
Beach or - more cheaply - in one of the shacks along adjacent Occheuteal Beach. Two
blocks inland, 12 Tola St is developing into a restaurant zone, with a plethora of barbecue
places in the evening.
Nyam
(

; 23 Tola St; US$2-4.25; 5-10pm; )
The name translates as 'Eat'
in Khmer, and this is a great spot for a contemporary Cambodian dinner experience. All
the favourites are here such as
amok
(baked fish curry), but there are also some healthy
seafood offerings reflecting its coastal location.

(Occheuteal Beach; mains US$2.50-5; 7am-10pm; )
Beachys' generous mixed seafood grill,
fantastic value at US$4, separates it from the pack of barbecue shacks lining Occheuteul
Beach. If you aren't up for surf, order turf, a heaped platter of various grilled meats.

A cracking little Italian cafe turning out wood-
fired pizza, homemade pasta and delicate gnocchi. Dine at lunchtime or before 6.30pm for
a main course accompanied by garlic bread or bruschetta and a drink for just US$5.
