Day 1 in Siem reap

Entrance of Cuisine Wat Damnak
Indoor
Outdoor
This was our menu and we ordered all 6 courses, both tasting menu 1 and 2:)
"Amuse-boche"- Minced pork with vegetable (the peanut does complements the minced pork thankfully but due to the nature of the vegetable "xiang cai" it was a big no-no for me.)
"Tonle Sap Croaked Fish" - The fish was super fresh and succulent but the paste beside it on the left tasted like tomyum. for non tomyum lovers like me, it tasted pretty bad....
"koh kong scallop" - was pretty hard and bland.. but it was relatively alright, quite a special dish i would say.
"mekong" - wow this was surprisingly delicious! there was an added touch to the dish as the prawn was charred and so damn fresh. however, with another bowl of rice at the side was overkill. 2 small prawns were also inadequate!!!








Had dinner at Cuisine Wat Damnak during my recent trip to Siem Reap! Bringing both Cambodian and French culinary techniques together, they have surely executed themselves well. Apparently I heard that they are the top restaurant around in Siem Reap so for the price I guess it's worth it. The menu changes weekly though so be prepared to experience different types of dishes each time!
