[Siem Reap, Cambodia] Local cuisine in Pre Dark Village 🍽️

┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ 📍Preah Dak (ព្រះដាក់) ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ This time, we will introduce recommended local gourmet food in Preah Dak Village, located about 10km northeast of Siem Reap! Preah Dak Village is right next to the popular Pre Rup ruins, which have a Laputa-like atmosphere. We recommend stopping by after touring the ruins 🍽️ ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ▷Num banhchok: Rice flour noodle soup Nom banhchok is a Khmer word that means "noodles made from rice flour," and is also the name of the dish. It is characterized by rice flour noodles and a soup made from fish stock. It is a staple Cambodian breakfast and a traditional dish that is also eaten on celebratory occasions. Different restaurants have different soups! The curry-based soup I chose this time had a mild coconut flavor and a gentle taste 🍜 My guide took me to "Je(Neang) Yin Preah Dak Noodle" as it was recommended by the guide, but if you search for "នំបញ្ចុក" in Khmer on Google Maps, you will find many other Nom Ban Chok restaurants. ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ▷Num Tnaot: Coconut cake Preh Dak Village's specialty is coconut cake! It has a simple taste made from rice flour and coconut juice, and the texture is somewhere between a steamed bread and a muffin. This sweet has been made in this area for a long time, and was eaten at festivals. In recent years, they started making extra and selling it along the road, and it became very popular with locals and tourists, and now it has become a major specialty🧁 There are many stalls along the main road of Pre Dark village (Route 810) where you can buy freshly made coconut cake. If you join a tour, you can see the process of cracking coconuts and steaming the cake! ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ Num Plae Ai: Brown sugar shiratama dango Num Plae Ai is a sweet with brown sugar inside a dumpling that looks like a shiratama. Sometimes it's eaten as is, and sometimes it's sprinkled with grated coconut. It comes in a cup made from a banana leaf, so it's a bit exciting to eat☺️ The taste and texture are very similar to Japanese sweets, so it's one of the local foods that you can easily try🍡 ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ 〖🇰🇭Travel Record〗 ✎Area: Siem Reap (Cambodia) ✎Visited: November 2023 ✎Purpose: Travel #Cambodia #Siem Reap #Angkor Wat #Cambodia Trip #World Heritage Site #Sightseeing #Tour #Local Gourmet #Cambodia Gourmet #Gourmet #Fritabi #100 Travel Styles
