Itinerary

Psar Chaa - or 'old market' - is often dismissed as a tourist market thanks to the rows of clothes and souvenir stalls that line the outside. However, the interior is a bustling working market frequented by Siem Reap's best chefs, and where some of the best ingredients in town can be found.

Street 60 is the sort of place few visitors discover. It's a night market for local food, outside the centre and far from the heavily-trod tourist areas. Here we'll discover deep-fried insects and frogs, authentic grilled skewers, and 'ban chav' savoury crepes. Many of the restaurants in Siem Reap are quite heavily 'westernised' and it can be difficult to know where to go for an authentic taste of life here. But the town is full of fresh, delicious and traditional Khmer eateries, like the outstanding barbecue at Sach Ang Tek Kapic or perfect Khmer country curry at Hidden Home. Join us for a visit to one of Siem Reap's hidden gems, where we'll help you navigate the menu and unfamiliar ingredients for a gastronomic experience to remember!

Amazing way to try new Cambodian dishes

We had a an amazing time on the food tour! Our guide was kind, funny and knowledgable. All the food we tried was amazing, and so much we couldn’t even finish the last dish. We even tired bugs, but there was always the option that if we didn’t like the sound of something we could change the menu. Great service and can’t recommend it enough if you want to try the less known cambodian food gems.
