Siem Reap Evening Street foods, Night Market and Pub Street by Tuk Tuk

It’s true that Cambodian cuisine shares common dishes with its neighboring countries such as Thailand, Vietnam, China, even India, and is influenced by the remnants of French colonial days. Khmers, however, had found creative ways to put in a dash of their style and flavor, making these otherwise familiar dishes into something uniquely Cambodian.

Get ready to have a taste of Siem Reap’s street food, by hopping into a remork-moto, commonly known as tuk tuk, as we pick you up from your hotel. We’ll go beyond tourist zones for the most enjoyable local street food adventure. Your knowledgeable food tour guide will lead you to explore Siem Reap’s streets to sample local snacks, such as yellow bean cake or Khmer rice cake. We’ll check out the tropical fruits in season and let you have a taste of unique fruits such as dragon fruit, lychee, tiny but sweet pineapples, longan, rambutan and mangosteen. Either you hate it or you love it, we dare you to sample the king of tropical fruits – durian. 

We’ll take you where the locals meet, eat and hang-out - in a picnic area where endless stalls are set-up in the early evening. Walk through the length of the street and explore various stalls selling fruits, snacks and cooked food, clothes, homewares, kitchen wares and everything in between. Eat snacks the Cambodian way and if you’re up for an adventure, try out a variety of exotic snacks such as fried tarantulas, crunchy crickets, frogs, fried scorpions and duck eggs. Bring out the foodie in you by picking from a variety of dishes such as skewered barbecue meat and fish, Khmer fried chicken, green mango with chili and salt, savory jackfruit and sweet mangosteen.

The fun continues as we try more Khmer food dishes for dinner at a restaurant. Your food tour guide will give details on the spices and secret ingredients in the local cuisine. Knock in your sweet tooth for a stop at the dessert stall. You can choose from a variety of luscious dessert from fruit shakes, baked pudding, fruit with sweet condensed milk, sticky rice, puddings or tarts. If your appetite for food and fun has not subsided yet, you have the option to continue strolling around the popular night market to shop around local handmade goods and souvenirs or to be dropped at the Pub Street, just a couple of blocks from the Night Market. You are free to wander the cluster of bars and restaurants, continue your Khmer specialty culinary treats, drink chilled beer and enjoy the lights and music for the rest of the night.
