Creative Cuisine
French bistros abound, and outstanding fusion restaurants blend the best of Cambodian
and European flavours. Ubiquitous Cambodian barbecues offer a more local experience or
try gourmet Khmer cuisine in a designer restaurant.
Happy Hour
Get started early in a breezy establishment overlooking the Mekong, move on to one of
the many live-music bars, and top it off by dancing till dawn in a legendary club. Phnom
Penh is 24/7 and one of the liveliest capitals in Asia.
Chic Boutiques
Bring an extra bag to fill with gifts. Choose from colourful local markets where bargains
abound on name-brand clothing, silks and handicrafts, or check out the impressive collec-
tions of several local and expat designers. There are also plenty of fair trade and good
cause shops where your spending assists development projects.
