Mekong Sunrise Guesthouse & Restaurant in Kampong Cham

The rooms are clean, comfortable and spacious. For the price, this guesthouse is an absolute steal. I've stayed here twice, and been thoroughly satisfied each time. The staff is accommodating and friendly to a fault, and the food is also very good. I would personally recommend the Chicken Bojangles. Really lovely place!

Restaurant: excellent service. Tuna melt baguette has more onions than tuna fish. At 3,50$, it's overpriced. Amok Fish is bland and not creamy enough (lack of spices and coconut milk) and believe me, I'm an expert in that dish. Eggs and baguette, butter and jam (2,50$); one of the rare places making sunny side up eggs. Yes !

The French onion soup was rich and flavorful. It came with a chunk of bread and mozzarella cheese on the side. The stirfry with bell peppers was fresh and not overcooked and not laden with oil. It was wonderful. In the past I’ve gotten chicken Kiev which is deep-fried but also very yummy and the chicken with wine sauce is good. They have good Khmer food and they have an interesting eggplant dish that turns out to be from the Middle East or something. I wanted to take wonderful photos but something happened to my camera.

The rooms are not the cleanest, but the beds are comfortable and when I forget things the staff always returns them to me. They’ve also learned my food preferences and they work around my desire to eat less refined carbs. They’ll fix a breakfast omelette and give me fruit instead of bread with jam and jelly.
