Hello, friends.

I’m feeling much better these days so I’m back to regular blogging. Now on to my Mellow Yellow Monday entry…

Yum!

This is arguably the best iced coffee in Phnom Penh. You can find it inside the Russian Market, aka, Tuol Tumpong Market.

APAD 163: Jiggly with caffeine!

One of the pleasures of living in Cambodia is sitting down in a streetside cafe and sipping a glass of super-yummy, oh-so-sinfully sweet iced coffee. You can easily get this very sweet beverage anywhere in the city but there is one place at the Russian market that is so popular to both locals, expats and tourists alike that a Facebook fan page was created especially for this legendary iced coffee and its star coffee-maker in Phnom Penh.

So when you are in Russian Market (or Psah Tuol Tumpong) in Phnom Penh and you see this sign…

…  you should really give it a try! Honestly, it’s truth in advertising! I already get jiggly whenever I see this sign and I rush to order one. And the effect on me – I talk non-stop for the whole day, almost manic. Oh gosh, what a kick. It’s not exactly for the health-conscious because it is an extremely rich and strong  caffeine brew with an automatic refill. With that said, I still urge you to try it – it really is worth it! Here is Mr. Bounnarith and his Facebook fan pag and here is an excellent blog post introducing him and his legendary iced coffee.

Living in Cambodia for a long time now makes me get used to signs that are funny or are not intending to be funny but because of the outrageous word combination (i.e., translations or context) it takes on another meaning (humorous) or no meaning at all. Previously I posted pictures of funny signs most of which I saw in my frequent trips to the countryside. This time, I am posting something that I found in a Chinese restaurant’s menu. Juice with fancy (funny) names available at one of the Chinese restaurants (forgot the name) near Hun Sen park, just a stone’s throw away from Java Cafe. Have a look:

Since it was really hot that day, so I ordered myself this:

Can you guess what I ordered??

No, not the Relieve summer heat the plum juice. They were out of stock.

Tried asking for the Keep like good health the turnip juice. No luck.

So I just settled for the cool water melon juice!

How about you, what’s your choice?
