Great breakfast choice on Sihanouk overlooking the park (gold statue). Tip: walk down the driveway on the right hand side of the restaurant and try and get a table on the balcony upstairs. Cafe is also a gallery and has exhibitions upstairs.

Healthy food choices which are sometimes hard to find. And this is a little hard to find. It is down a lane way that bend a little but runs between Streets 240 and 244. They call the lane way Str 240 1/2 and it is immediately to the east of street 19. Worth the hunt and you'll see some AMAZING street art at the same time.

Healthy options for breakfast or lunch on your way to or from the Russian Market (by tuk tuk). I'm not a health freak but other foods are easier to find and this place does great coffee. Coffee is very important. To me anyway...

Drinks & Nightlife
This small laneway off street 308 has half a dozen small bars which have different themes and signature drinks. Try Meat & Drink for beer and burgers, The Library for daiquiris, Hangar 44 for tough drinks, Cicada for gin, Harry's Bar for martinis and Seibur on the corner of Street 308 itself for other delights. Best part, the bars are all connected and you can sample standouts from some bars, whilst sitting in another. Awesome spot and hidden down a lane way that others miss.

Not cultural and by no means local. But, when it's super hot and you want to escape, you'll find air-conditioned comfort, a cinema, an ice-skating rink, expensive shops, and plenty of locals who might be experiencing their first ever trip to the mall.
