Lazy Mekong Daze

Eastern Cambodia


One of the go-to places to gather after dark thanks to a mellow atmosphere and a big-screen TV for sports and movies. The menu includes a range of Khmer, Thai and French food, plus chilli con carne and the tastiest pizzas in town. The English-speaking owner, Dary Sang, is your best bet for up-to-date tourist info.
