Phnom Penh’s Fast Food

Easting on the street

Cambodia has some fast food outlets–the first and only Carl’s, Jr opened up last week and we have KFC and pizza outlets, but most fast food in Phnom Penh is served as in the picture above.  There are numerous stalls set up and taken down every day that provide a variety of dishes, mostly big pots of vegetables with some meat that is served over rice.  It’s pre-cooked–Cambodian people don’t value hot food as something desirable–and you just point to the pot that looks good today.  I tend to avoid the stalls where the dishes are washed in the big tubs of water there on the street.
