- Cambodia, 2008/11/30 Subject: General Notes Unlike its neighbours Vietnam and Thailand, Cambodian cuisine is not spectacularly veg*n friendly, with seafood and barbecued meat forming the basis of most local dishes. However, in the major centres, most international restaurants have at least a few vegetarian (and occasionally vegan) offerings, and some Khmer restaurants offer veggie versions of local dishes (e.g. tofu amok - traditionally a seafood dish). Obtaining veg*n fare at street vendors, market stalls and most local restuarants is usually not possible without asking the vendors to adapt their normal dishes, and the result will most often be a simple meal of fried noodles with veg, fried rice with veg, or steamed rice with veg. A few useful phrases: K'nyom nyam m'hoab boo-ah = I eat vegetarian food (literally "food of monks") Ot nyam ... tay = I do not eat ... Soam kom dak ... = Please don't add ... Saitch = meat Tray = fish Teuk tray = fish sauce Prayng k'chawng = oyster sauce Pra hoc = shrimp paste Porng mow-un = egg Teuk daw goa = milk |
