Ever wanted to taste Cambodian food in Singapore but find it difficult due to the lack of places? Don’t worry, because SPRMRKT Cambodia is bringing Cambodian cuisine to you. From now till 31 March 2019, you can enjoy an authentic Cambodian experience along Robertson Quay.
Ranging from traditional street food to exquisite fine dining, be prepared to be transported onto the streets of Siem Reap, Cambodia, without splurging on air tickets!
I was invited to one of the events, Pou By The River which happened on 25 January 2019, where I was treated to a Cambodian street food feast!
I was recommended the Trey Aarng (S$16), which is a grilled mackerel dish. The taste of it is exactly similar to the Japanese dish Saba Shioyak with a hint of teriyaki flavour to it. It was grilled perfectly and we enjoyed every bit of it.
Up next was Nam Banh Chok With Chicken Curry (S$10). It is a rice vermicelli dish garnished with beansprouts and corriander leaves, mixed with chicken curry. To draw comparisons to a local dish, it tasted like laksa with a thinner broth.
Pou By The River has ended, but fret not, because there are more upcoming events held by SPRMRKT Cambodia which are listed below:
