    Koh Lin

    Its name a play on a play on the French word colline (hill), this unpretentious eatery has just five candle-lit tables and serves good-value Cambodian, Vietnamese and French bistro classics. Dessert options include profiterole, crème caramel and crèpes.

  7. Khmer Gourmet

    Saviours of the sweet tooth, fresh pies, cakes and cookies line the display cabinet of their café, but its pièce de résistance is the coffee machine, a proper one, that makes the noise and everything!

    Snake House

    The best place in town for Russian mains (pelmeny, manty, chicken Kiev) and soups (red and green borsht, solyanka); it also serves seafood. In a unique, slithering twist, diners sit at glass-topped tables with live serpents - many venomous - inside. The jungle-enveloped complex includes a bar, a guesthouse and a crocodile farm: one false step and the crocs will eat as well as you did.

  14. I

    Treasure Island

    In an isolated spot in the middle of nowhere, this big, informal seafoodery is popular with Khmers and Asian tourists with a hankering for its 'Hong Kong-style' fish and seafood. Most everything is fresh and housed in tanks, just point to what you want and the staff will pluck it out. Prices are generally reasonable but read the fine print - some items are sold by weight.

    La Paillote

    This fine-dining restaurant is a little out of place in the backpacker-Bronx of Sihanoukville, maybe that's why it hides behind a passageway of bamboo in a delightful garden courtyard. It has a great international menu. Try the Balmain bugs in coconut milk and ginger; they're as delectable as they sound.

  16. Mama Cambodia

    Mama Cambodia 'Mama' is a middle-aged woman with a talent in the kitchen that could make you discard you own. Unlike the bizarre beauty queens laminated into her menus, her traditional Khmer meals are authentic and tasty.
