Siem Reap’s Street Food 

Home to archaeological wonders of the ancient Angkor dynasty, Siem Reap also offers a thriving street food scene. From savoury snacks to sweet treats, the city’s culinary offerings are a must-try for any visitor.

Num Pang

Similar to the classic Vietnamese banh mi, Cambodian Num Pang is a flavourful delight. Consisting of baguette bread filled with your choice of grilled meat, pickled vegetables, and a touch of chilli, it’s a satisfying and portable meal.

Black Sticky Rice with Coconut

Indulge in a unique variation of the region’s beloved sticky rice, with black sticky rice – the unusual grain is steamed and served with rich coconut milk, its textures and flavours blending harmoniously. Try a serving at some of the best restaurants in Siem Reap, including a version served with fresh mango and ice cream at The Mansion, located in FCC Angkor by Avani.

Nom Ka Chai (Chive Cakes)

A beloved snack across the country, these savoury, tapioca-based pancakes, filled with chives and other ingredients, are steamed and fried till coated in a golden crust. Enjoy them hot from a street-side vendor for a delightful treat.

Deep-fried shrimp and Bread Cakes

Satisfy your cravings with these crispy delights. The combination of juicy shrimp coated in cornstarch and golden brown bread creates a perfect balance of flavours and textures.

Iced Sugar-Cane Juice 

Quench your thirst with the refreshing sweetness of freshly squeezed sugarcane juice. This invigorating beverage is a perfect antidote to the tropical heat, as you explore the ruins of a kingdom from a bygone era.
