12 places with a heart

eclipse130922(04)

Following a post on “10 Great Places to eat for a cause” in the S.E.A. Backpacker (http://www.southeastasiabackpacker.com/10-great-places-to-eat-for-a-cause-in-south-east-asia), we decided to copy their idea. Here are twelve places in Siem Reap, granted not all restaurants, that “have a heart” and do more than the average for the community. They have all … Read More →


Yellow Sub

yellow-sub(01)

On the corner of Abbey Road and Penny Lane is an interesting bar. Actually if you look for those two addresses on a map of Siem Reap, you’ll find neither. But go along THE Lane (the small alley that runs just North of and parallel to Pub Street) and you’ll … Read More →


5 day itinerary

baphoun-tm

I’ve had a few people say to me “It’s all very well having all these ideas, but it’s too confusing to make an itinerary from them.” This indeed may be a problem. Siem Reap Post . com offers so much, it’s hard choosing what to do. There is also the … Read More →


Rosy’s

rosy(2)

More an fixture than anything else, Rosy’s is an incredible attraction on the Bar (and guesthouse) scene in Siem Reap. It’s on the East bank of the river. If you cross the river using the Highway 6 bridge (which you can’t do in a tuk tuk or bike as it’s … Read More →


Picasso

picasso(1)

Tucked away (a bit), close to the main drag of Pub Street, yet far enough away to be worth mentioning is a tiny bar. It’s called Picasso. Stand at Pub Street, in either of the side streets that cross it. Walk toward the river, half a block and you come … Read More →


Miss Wong Bar

“Miss Wong Cocktail bar for a taste of vintage Shanghai. The cherry-red lanterns suspended from the doorway beckon passersby to this hidden gem. Inside, slip into one of the intimate leather booths for an Indochine Martini. Easily the most atmospheric and most seductive bar in Siem Reap, it’s perfect for … Read More →


Charlie’s

charlies(03)

Charlie’s Bar. The tale is inexorably linked with Charlie’s story. So, we will tell the two together, and hope you enjoy it. The first question? Why publish this article today? There are two reasons. Charlie’s has been open a month today. Also, we wanted to advertise his 4th July party … Read More →


Cocktail Making

asana(06)

Well, this certainly was something different! Following on to our visit to Sombai, we saw an advert for a Khmer Cocktail making class – which used the product, Sombai. So, being good reporters (and liking a drink) we decided to go along and try. Here’s the report. If it gets … Read More →


Sombai

sombai(4)

SOMBAI !!##!!?! I know, it sounds like a Japanese exclamation, just before the hero in a comic strip hits the baddy! Well, you’re a tiny bit close with the Japanese, but only a tiny bit close. Actually it’s an infused rice spirit, marketed in Siem Reap by a very nice … Read More →


Tuk Tuk Bar – Hong’s Story

Hong at his "house"

There’s a very interesting bar in town, called the tuk tuk bar. We have been watching it on facebook, and when they announced the “mini tuk tuk bar” I decided to go along and visit. However, this turned out to be more of an adventure than I had thought, and … Read More →


Under Construction

uc(09)

UPDATE 29/08/13 UC is back open again under the management of its owners – Jacob and Carsten. We wish them luck in continuing with this unusual bar. We’ve been there and can confirm that it has had a “freshen up” but is still just as quirky as ever. The menu’s … Read More →


Meatballs – Miss Wong and the Yellow Sub

misswong-meatballs

Now, if we said Miss Wong to you, apart from thinking of Chinese ladies, if you know the bar in Siem Reap, you’d think “The best cocktail bar in the city”. Indeed we will shortly be doing a feature on it with that as the focus. If we say Yellow … Read More →


Station Show

station13031518

The Station Wine Bar is a great gay orientated bar (there are only four) in Siem Reap, Cambodia. It is welcoming, filled with locals who will chat and the waiters are cute. They have a long list (I’ve been told 20) of wines available by the glass, and many more … Read More →
