My husband loves curry to bits and so, taking a cue from him, I had this brilliant (ahem, ahem) thought of making a curry kit of sorts so I don’t have to scurry whenever my husband or I crave for Indian food.

Luckily for me, there are Indian spices available in the city. One of them is this shop in central Phnom Penh where I can get a whole lot of spices and other Indian/South Asian provisions.

This is where I get spices and other stuff for my “curry kit”.

Someone has got a cold and a sore throat but insisted having a cold drink.

Thirsty! Time for tai-krochma-teuk’o. Iced tea with lemon-lime.

APAD 109: Summer coolers

In this scorching summer heat in Phnom Penh, there is no more convincing needed. A friend and I went in.

We weren’t disappointed – we had the most refreshing, satisfying fruit cooler ever.

In case you asked… Nope. As much as it sounded exotic (novel), we didn’t try the watermelon and chili. We both went for the passion fruit and mint. A perfect balance of sweetness and sourness. A bit pricey for $2.25 but, after several hours of shopping at a non-airconditioed market, it’s all worth the price!

Ooooh, freshly-squeezed orange juice. What better way to start the day than this refreshing drink that’s packed with vitamin C. The oranges were from Battambang province.
