Siem Reap Food Tours is an excellent option for tourists. (Read TripAdvisor reviews of Siem Reap Food Tours.)
Steven Halcrow, a Scottish chef, and Lina Goldberg, a food and travel writer, are two expats in Siem Reap sharing the tastes of the city. You have an option of a morning tour or an evening tour, both with visits to markets and local restaurants.
Over the years, Steven has developed a camaraderie with locals as seen in his interactions and growing command of the Khmer language. As he is an expat, tourists feel as though they are traveling with a fellow food-loving friend and not a disconnected guide.
You are taken to local restaurants that are out of reach for typical tourists. Steven assures guests of safe eating through his food knowledge, research, and experience. Plus, with the option of Cambodian beers at every stop, there really should be no worry about getting sick.
And for the true local way of eating, the evening tour concludes at the night market for a feast of barbecue, fruits, and desserts.
For those who seek to learn about everyday Khmer and Cambodian cuisine, Siem Reap Food Tours is the perfect food adventure.
