CNY trip - Part 2

before touching down at Phnom Penh International Airport, i kept on peeking at the window, and wanted my sister to assure me that we actually landed at the correct destination.

damn this piece of land looked so abandoned and undeveloped.

but i changed my mind after stepping in into the airport.

everything seemed fine, or maybe GOOD!

TRANSPORTATION
The main transportation in the entire Cambodia is Tuk-tuk!

Tuk-tuk can be seen everywhere there.

just can't help to admit that their riding skills are very good.

bear in mind to bargain with the Tuk-tuk drivers for a better price.

but please make sure that you don't overly bargain because they aren't have comfortable lives that most of them sleep in their own tuk-tuks during the night.

1 tuk-tuk can usually fit in 4 people, but if you have more than 4 travelling mates, don't worry!
they usually allow you to have more than 4 people. like us, we had SIX in 1 tuk-tuk HAHAHA!



STREETS

The streets are always busy, EXTREMELY busy.

crossing roads are a major thingy for Malaysians HAHA.

bear in mind that whenever you are about to cross a road, don't really stop because the motorists and motorcyclists are anticipating your moves.

they're all very tolerant and patient for no reasons.

don't be shock or misunderstand whenever hearing them honking, it's a way for them to remind each other to be careful.

unlike Malaysian, honking is considered as rude. LOL

FOOD
as for Malaysians, don't worry about diarrhea here as long as you mustn't try out the street food.
but i don't even think foreigners will try the street food out, they're kind of disgusting.

this wasn't in night market, it's just right beside a minor road so anyone out there dare to give a try?
but hey, there're plenty of hygienic restaurants out there.
my family and I only dined in in restaurants. so 6 of us didn't even get any diarrhea even though we siblings don't have good stomachs.

PHO
this word is pronounced as 'fur'!
they served pho with beef, chicken or seafood and it's so GOOD! *slurp*

pho is kind of like 'kueh tiaw' or something similar.

we found the best pho in town. it's nearby Silver Pagoda and Mekong River riverfront.
the beef slices are really good and fresh, and i think 1 big bowl of pho only costs u 3USD.
if i wasn't wrong, pho isn't originated from Cambodia but Vietnam.


Vietnamese Bread
another food which is originated from Vietnam. this's really my BIG favourite!
it's sorta like french bread stuffed with meat slices and vegetables.

this's it! add the green papaya and meat slices into the bread.

after adding the yummy ingredients.

after adding in all the side ingredients, add some superb sauces that you won't be able to find in the whole Malaysia.

somebody please bring me to Cambodia again please!!

this shop is located nearby Royal Palace. seriously can't remember where is this located.

one of the stalls outside the shop.

i would like to introduce the only street food that we have tried in the entire trip.

i didn't know what does this call but this's nice and very crispy. it's some sort of crepes or kuih sepit.

EXTREMELY cheap some more. only cost less than RM1 for 1 whole plastic bag.

we found this outside Russian Market.

Mum had been observing the man selling this for quite a while until she decided to buy HAHA.

#typicalmum to make sure that he's really hygienic, that man was wearing gloves too.

this's one of the street food too. freaked me out. there's a hole on every egg and you can see some sort of chick feather!

we couldn't figure out what's this. we thought that this's olives at first then after observing up close, it's  shell.

i don't think i have to explain what's this. EEWWWW
