A taste of something different for lunch today: Italiano classico on the riverfront in Phnom Penh.

Khmer food is on “hold” and opting for pasta spaghetti with olive oil, herbs, extra Parmesan and clams.

They nail it. The pasta is “to the tooth”.

A good choice, for under USD10. Bgari Italian restaurant, on Street 1. I will be back.

PS: they also do a good breakfast cappuccino here and we Melburnians are very picky about coffee
