BURGERS FROM HEAVEN
From lentils, mushrooms, beans and corn, there is strong competition for the perfect burger.
Vibe Cafe (Phnom Penh and Siem Reap) calls one of their burgers the Honest Burger, and that’s a pretty apt name for this completely vegan and extremely delicious burger that would satisfy even the heartiest of meat lovers. Honest because plant-based diets cause no harm to other living things, so it’s got a lot of feel-good factor too.
In Siem Reap, most burger places offer vegetarian or vegan options, catering for the growing number of planet conscious people living and travelling through Cambodia. There’s even a Vegan Villa bed and breakfast come homestay in Siem Reap that includes a veritable smorgasbord of delicious breakfast food each day. The owners Caryl and Paul will most likely tell you all of the latest foodie spots around town too — burgers and more.
In Phnom Penh, choices are increasing, too, and places like Sundown Social have a comforting menu of hotdogs and burgers to fill that craving for junk food. Most are plant based and you’d hardly know! Looking over the patchwork of roofs for Russian Market, the setting is pretty sweet too.
Vegetarians and vegans, the Kingdom of Burgers delivers on taste and quality. Carnivores, give it a chance, you’ll be pleasantly surprised.
