BKK Market is a small local market that remains mostly off the tourist track, with some great bargains to be found inside. In keeping with markets, there is a central food area, with stalls selling a range of local eats. This is a great place to try one of Cambodia’s national dishes, num banh chok, or Khmer noodles. Eaten either for breakfast or as an afternoon snack, the rice noodles are topped with a fish-based curry gravy made from kaffir lime, lemongrass and turmeric root. This dish is a must-try while in Cambodia.
