Upon researching this trip (in January 2016 lol), I found a little restaurant in downtown Siem Reap with excellent Trip Advisor comments and an interesting history: Genevieve's restaurant. Specializing in Khmer (Cambodian) and Western food, the restaurant is named after an Australian teacher and overall nice lady who died of cancer. Her husband Phil started the restaurant and you can read about it below. When I booked our reservation via email, Phil commented "nice name!", and when we were there on Wednesday night, there was ANOTHER Geneviève dining there with her family!!!
Genevieve's Restaurant was so good (and SO budget-friendly!!!) that we were there again last night (Thursday). The restaurant is always busy, and since we didn't have a reservation at 730pm when we arrived, we only had to wait 10 or so minutes before a table became available. TOTALLY WORTH IT!!!!!! Pics below.
When we get back to the hotel this arvo I will write about our private picnic experience yesterday, on top of a mountain. xo
Lok Lak, made with Australian tenderloin (SOOOOOOO TENDER AND DELICIOUS!!!)
Ryan enjoying Lok Lak for the second night in a row (why mess with a good thing?)
Set up at Angkor Village Resort for the set dinner menu and show (outside + mozzies + $39USDpp = off to Genevieve's we go!!!)
