    $$

    You don't have to be a foreign correspondent to join the lively international crowd that gathers every day at this atmospheric French-colonial building. The beer is always cold, the cocktails icy, and you can grab a reliable burger or wood-fired pizza and enjoy the open river views if you're in need of a change from Khmer fare (having said that, the beef Lok Lak is one of the best in town).

    $ | Khan Daun Penh

    There are two branches of Khéma in the city, but this one, with its French colonial stylings, heritage building, and location in the heart of the old quarter, is the one to go to. Expect modern French cuisine served at all times of the day, but weekend brunch is probably the most popular meal.

    The Phnom Penh elite frequent this upscale, traditional Khmer restaurant in a peaceful garden, as its chef Luu Meng is a Cambodian celebrity who has worked on TV with the likes of Gordon Ramsay. The long menu features a variety of fresh fish and seafood, soups, curries, and grilled meats. The prices are a little high by Cambodian standards, but it makes for an enjoyable change if you're looking for something out of the ordinary, and you certainly get what you pay for.

  • 31. Rendez-Vous

    Follow the aroma of pungent spices into this restaurant and prepare for a hearty curry and all the essential sides at one of the capital's best Indian restaurants.

In the pleasant dining room a statue of the elephant-headed Hindu god Ganesha stands by the door, and reproductions of Mogul art line the walls. There are also usually a few tables on the sidewalk.

  • 36. Smile

    $

    Buddhism for Social Development Action runs this experiential training restaurant. Even so, the dining experience (Khmer and Western, leaning heavily towards Italian, food served) on the whole is better than many professional setups. The dining area is spacious, lime green and white, and cooled by overhead fans. Meals can also be enjoyed outside in front of the restaurant with open views onto the Mekong River.

    $

    Here you can try a shake, house-made yogurt, or a brownie, indulge in a massage, and learn about volunteering opportunities in Sihanoukville. The café has Wi-Fi and a handicrafts shop upstairs. It's not the easiest of places to find—hidden down a dirt road behind the Samudera Market in town—but it's well worth the trek, as it benefits the Starfish Project, which supports individuals in need.
