Amigo Restaurant & Sky Bar, Phnom Penh
I couldn’t stop admiring the cityscape during the meal, but the food at Amigo Restaurant & Sky Bar was very average. Not terrible, not memorable, just edible.
Guide to Banteay Kdei
This temple is built in the same Bayon architectural style and will be your first glimpse of peaceful smiling stone heads if you’re early into your trip
Guide to Srah Srang
A classic example of “expectations vs. reality,” what the other websites and guides won’t show you is what a dismal bog Srah Srang can be if it hasn’t rained in a while
Kumar’s, Mont Kiara
There is no filtered water on offer, and the only options for water are the bottles on the menu for a fucking ridiculous price of RM15. Are we at Coachella?
Guide to Banteay Samre
Banteay Samre is like the appetizer to the main entree that is Angkor Wat
Tea Garden, Sunway Velocity Mall

Doma Modern Korean, Mont Kiara
Food is a bit pricier at Doma over more basic Korean restaurants. Though the individual dishes weren’t a sticker shock, it can all quickly add up.
