Ktom Sre

Temples of Angkor


Ktom Sre is a simple Cambodian restaurant on the northwestern corner of Sra Srang, the former royal bathing pond. Food is eaten in bamboo picnic huts and the signature coconut roast chicken is served in a banana leaf, the traditional way Khmer food was served before the advent of polystyrene and plastic.
