Easy Saturday…..

Last Saturday was a really enjoying day, only half day work till 1.00pm :) After work, we decided to go for lunch at Freebird Restaurant, a western restaurant which was opened by American. The concept is like Chillie’s Restaurant in KL. We had fish & Chips and Chicken Burger for our lunch. Both contain with high calories. Therefore, I have to work hard from this week onwards to lose some weight :) The Restaurant have their own Wine Cellar and the wine in Cambodia is much cheaper and more varieties than Malaysia.

FreeBird Phnom Penh, concept like Hard Rock Cafe!

Our Lunch!

My Favorite~

After lunch, we went back home and called for the massage services at only USD6.00 per hour plus some tipping. I had my 1 hour “Tui Na”” massage by a Chinese Masseur. It was so relaxing and feel so good after the massage!

For dinner, we went to a famous German Restaurant called “TELL Restaurant” which we were craving to go there for one week. TELL Restaurant was opened by a German and they are famous for German Sausages and Pork Knuckle. We had ordered for the famous pork knuckle, German Sausages and some pasta. The portion for the pork knuckle and German Sausages was too huge that we couldn’t manage to finish them. Overall, we had overloaded ourselves for the dinner. The food quality was good and value for money.

After dinner, we felt so full that we decided to go to the local Flea Market. You can found Abercrombie T-shirts, rejected items, souvenir items and some local products from the flea market. As a foreigner, we must always bargain for the price at least 50% below the original price. I got myself a dress, a skirt and some hair accessories and spent at USD11.00 only. The quality of the clothes are similar with the imported products as most of the clothes are rejected items from factory. If you ever plan to visit Cambodia in one day, remember to visit the local flea market.

La Volpaia Italian Restaurant

I would like to share with all the bloggers out there about the restaurant in Phnom Penh! If you ever think of coming to visit this country in one day, not to worry about the food here as lots of foreigners restaurant can be found in this city!

La Volpaia is one of the restaurant that we would dine in most of the time. There is branches in Seoul and Tokyo who also serve Italian food and Pizza. For wine lovers, there’s also a Wine cellar in the restaurant.

This restaurant is famous for Pasta and Pizza! The Wood Oven Pizza is the best among all! We had the Amariticiata Pizza every time we went there! The ingredients are Bacons, Olive and Onion. JE’s dad also loves the pizza and he commented that this pizza is the best among all restaurants in KL! For the price wise, Pasta is around USD7-11 and pizza is around USD6-10.

I would love to try the Squid Ink Spaghetti the next time I go there.

Malaysian Delicacies in Cambodia

Finally we had found the place to have the best Penang Fried Kway Teow in Phnom Penh after being 10 months in this country.

We received a free USD20.00 meal voucher at Mekong Palace during the Malaysian Embassy dinner.

The price of the food was so reasonable. I like the Penang Fried Kway Teow. It’s almost the same as what I had in KL. The cockles here are much bigger than the one in Malaysia! It was even greater than the one in Miri nearby Milan Photo Studio. And the Roti Canai that I had there was the best that I had among all, it’s even better than any of those that I had in Malaysia. The buttery taste was so strong! But, the Curry noodle doesn’t look and taste well. The Kangkong belacan even tastes better than the one I cooked. Hehe…

The best thing was that we had everything for FREE! And we only pay for our drinks at USD5.00 for 3 drinks.

Overall, the meal was really contented! I’ll definitely go there again for breakfast!
