| - Phnom Penh moved so 13124 Lorain Ave is now Cuisine du Cambodge, which is run by the original owners of Phnom Penh. The renamed restaurant has now been open just 3 weeks.
Dinner tonight was fantastic. I had the Hue Beef soup, a soup with round rice noodles, sliced pork belly, beef brisket, and flavored with lemon grass and other spices. I'm not a Cambodian food specialist but am Asian myself and have had lots of other east and south Asian food, and this had terrific spice and depth of flavor. Similarly, the Phnom Penh stirred pan noodle, which seemed like a cambodian variant of Pad Thai, was delicious. Portion size was very generous too.
Waiter and rest of staff were extremely nice and attentive. Really enjoyed the experience. Decor is perhaps a bit sparse, but clean. It adds to the authenticity of the experience, and probably allows them to keep the prices so low.
