    I love your wording when you are describing the food, and they are not scripted as well, just instant reactions, which makes it even better. Feel like this is something a lot of vloggers are missing.

I really like how you have the restaurant name and address on the screen as well as what you ordered and it's price !

    Just tried the Phnom Pehn location due to your recommendation. Butter chicken was 🔥🔥👍 Their butter beef was okay. Also tried their lemongrass chicken and was super disappointed. As a Cambodian, I don’t know if the chef was just off with their cooking that day but it tasted like a water downed version of what legit Cambodian lemongrass chicken is. Also I the owners didn’t seem to be 100% Cambodian, definitely seemed like they were mixed with Chinese or Vietnamese. Maybe that’s why their Cambodian flavor was off, but the Vietnamese food was good.
