I've mostly had them as street food myself. They were never battered and had a crunchy exterior like these. I think I prefer this version. I do enjoy a nice crunchy skin. Makes me think of a nice fried chicken. Mmmm
Thank you. There are so many restaurants here, I could go out every day to a new place and never run out. Places like this are special though. A simple menu but everything is cooked perfectly. I definitely appreciate that.
That short noodle called, "lot cha". Lot is the type of short noodle. Cha means "fried" . The other one called, Nom ka chai". Nom is just mean cake. Ka chai is the type of green veggie. just in case you want to know. I love these two types of food. It always make me very satisfy after I ate. Sean, You have very smart idea to follow the local. They local know more than us. The food is taste better and the price are reasonable too.
The short noodle here looked a little different than at other places. It had a cut end where the others I've had was tapered. I wasn't sure if it would be named differently because of that. Your explanation is perfect, so it's because it's a fried noodle, not the shape of the noodle like in Italy. Cool. I love learning new things. And he's. Following the locals is always a good idea to find great food that is reasonably priced.
@@FrugalWanderer I think every company that make noodle is very similar to each other. No company can or want to make the noodle with the same size and length because the cutting machine is vary. in translation name of the business is "the family Lot Ch(h)a and cake Ko Chia (pronounce Nom Ka Chia).
Great. Thx for giving the cravings that I can’t satisfy with my cooking or find in my area. Probably will have to head Toronto or Montreal when I get the chance.
@ I actually don’t know for sure, but I would have a better chance finding a Khmer restaurants and ask for it. There is one outside Montreal, La Khmer, where they will make prahok dish if I call one day in advance.
Yes. I came back home. I was gone for two months and have been back a bit longer than that. I love Siem Reap and wanted to return. Thanks for the welcome.
14:15 I was fortunate enough to travel a lot when I was young and my parents taught me the same, Always go where you see the locals because it must be good authentic food, and also if it is busy it means it is fresh because the turnover of food is high and people do not frequent places that they have been sick from. I shake my head when I see all these social media people who travel (or in fact expats who move here) and they go eat at Western food joints ... what a waste!
Nice to know that my parents weren't the only ones teaching valuable life lessons to their kids like we had. Haha. I go to the Western spots once in a blue moon and mostly it's just to make a video. I personally hate most of it. That's why you usually only see fried chicken or a burger. These are the ones I don't mind. Haha
Looks delicious!
It tasted way better than it looked. That's saying a lot. Haha
Definitely delicious 🎉
Definitely.
I'll be in SR in 3 weeks, I can't wait to try the food.
I hope that you have safe travels here. The food is amazing and I'm finding new things all the time.
Yummy frugal video with the local chives …
It was bound to happen eventually. Haha
I love those "chive cakes" - I've only had them as street food, never in a restaurant - looks great!

Just amazing how many great restaurants and fresh food is there at your disposal! Another great job on your vlog! Take care my Canadian brother!

You sounds like you were in heaven.. lol!
I absolutely was. Haha. The crunch, the umami and the sweetness combined was something else. Haha

My favorite meal ❤
Good morning sir ☀️
Good morning and it's definitely one of my favorite meals here. So good.
@FrugalWanderer I'm so glad you love it, take care
Great. Thx for giving the cravings that I can’t satisfy with my cooking or find in my area. Probably will have to head Toronto or Montreal when I get the chance.
I'm sorry about that. If I had known about these when I was in Toronto or Montreal, I would have been eating it years ago. Haha

Looks yummy Sir Frugal - 🙏for the tucker tips 👍
but we all know the secret is in the “ sauce “ 👌🌶️🌶️
The sauce definitely added a level to the meal that I didn't expect. Everything was so good
Great T.shirt
I have been a Bowie fan most of my life. Haha
Ahh, you came back to Siem Reap. No, I would say, welcome back to siem reap. that's what i meant.
Yes. I came back home. I was gone for two months and have been back a bit longer than that. I love Siem Reap and wanted to return. Thanks for the welcome.
@@FrugalWanderer Even I am Cambodian, I'm from Battambang and Now I just stay at home, I still love Siem Reap. Very wise choice!!! 😍
@@mr.rinpanha I am planning on visiting Battambang in the next few months. I have some friends from there and they say how beautiful it is.
