Deliciously Me

Time for Cambodia post! Must quickly finish up to make way for Indons!

Lunch at one of the restaurants in Angkor compound : Can’t recall the name cz didn’t jot down. T.T

Since that day was so eff hot, I ordered coconut to cool myself down. If not mistaken it’s about 1USD.

Exactly a MONTH to go! *yoohoo* Eh, means a month for me to finish up the Cambodian Hour series. *gasp*

Mr. Kunn arranged us to visit 5 temples on the 4th day of our Cambodian trip (which was alot!)… and Ta Som was the 2nd one in line.

First look at the entrance of Ta Som, it does resembles the South gate of Angkor Thom but in smaller scale. Those 4 beautiful faces won’t fail to put a smile on my face.

Ta Som maybe one of the small temples in Angkor, but it has 3 gates for us to pass through! @.@

Another 4 weeks to Indon. Need to quicken my pace in finishing my Cambodia’s post! No more procrastinating!!! T.T

Woke up super duper early at 4.45. Washed up and then gathered downstairs. Siya greeted us and off we go to Angkor Wat for sunrise viewing at 5.20am. As much as I wanna show the picture of the sunrise, I couldn’t as I forgot to slot in battery after charging it overnight. Sigh!!!

The sunrise was magnificent. It was nice seeing the  orange sun coming out from the back of Angkor Wat, the birds chipping, the serenity in the morning; including helping the man setting up the tripod and watching him snapping pictures of the sunrise with green-y eyes. *wuwu*

Then went back to lodge for breakfast at 7.30am. Took bath, then went out for the famous Ta Prohm. The temple where Angelina Jolie fought with bad guys in the movie Tombraider.

What will you do when you’re feeling hungry?

A. Immediately look for food!

B. Whine and cry like nobody’s business!

C. Duduk diam and wait for people to bring you food!

We were hungry after touring Tonle Sap and Artisans d’Angkor. Ya heard our predicament and brought us to this nice restaurant in Cambodia. It’s called Bayon Restaurant and they served ridiculously delicious food!

From the overall look (exterior and interior), I know that dining at this restaurant won’t be cheap.

7 of us were seated on this round table, and the waiters started pouring us teas and bringing in food. One by one they brought in food.

Like usual, we pointed our dslr to the food for food-porn first but doing so drew many stares and looks from the waiters and waitresses, as well as the diners from next table.

What surprised us is the amount of dishes served!

There were 6 in total – something that we didn’t expect since it’s a free treat from Mr. Kunn. Mr. Kunn is the owner of the Jasmine Lodge in Siem Reap. We stayed 4 nights there. A nice and cosy (most importantly clean) place to stay for budget travellers like us.  

Thanks again, Mr. Kunn for the yummylicious lunch!
