    Absolutely love this place. Delicious food and very budget friendly. The place is run by family. Hardworking parents and their 4 kids. They offer wide selection of delicious meals.

    Food come to your table fast, very tasty, all ingredients are fresh. And the kids serving you food are adorable, one of the reasons why we kept returning to the same place for a week.

    There are plenty of seats right next to the food stand which can accommodate also bigger groups of people.

    Cheap beer available. Fast streetfood. Busy place, but friendly and quick staff. Noisy place, but it’s in the middle of where the action is…

    The food here is just delicious, freshly made by the always smiling owner who’s extremely friendly. He even exchanged my rice because he had just made fresh one mid way through my meal and wanted me to have it, while the previous one was absolutely great already. I came here 3 days in a row because of how delicious the food is. The korko soup with fish was my favorite!

    We came right as they opened so they weren’t really ready. Owner was sweeping and tidying things up, really nice guy so we decided to give him a chance. We forgo’d the Western food and opted for Khmer food cause we like Cambodian food. I ordered the Sweet and Sour Soup with fish and hubby ordered the Tom Yum soup with seafood.
