Romdeng Phnom Penh serves contemporary and country-style Khmer dishes from around US$3 upwards, including the famous fish amok, pomelo salad, tiger prawn curry, and stir-fried Kampot black pepper crab.

 There’s also a selection of insect-based delicacies for daring diners, such as crispy tarantula and stir-fried red tree ants with beef fillet and holy basil. For dessert, we highly recommend the coconut and pandan crepes, topped with young coconut, peanuts, and pineapple ice cream.
