Saturday Lunch Buffet at Sunway Hotel

For only $13/person, the Saturday lunch buffet at Sun Cafe Restaurant in Sunway Hotel is the cheapest buffet I have ever been to. Most of the hotel buffet in Phnom Penh range from $22 - $35.

There are several good choices of food but don't expect 5* choices. If you want a relaxed Saturday lunch, this one's perfect because they also have a live band serenading you.

Seafood and Mongolian BBQ Buffet at Himawari Hotel

Here's another place in Phnom Penh we keep on coming back - the buffet at Himawari Hotel. Personally, the draw for me is the salmon sashimi and the barbeque. Their chicken wing bbq is so delish! I bet you'd come back for more.

They don't have a very fancy spread like that of Sofitel or Raffles but if you're like me and you only want the sashimi and a little bit of something then this is the place for you too.

Seafood and Mongolian BBQ Buffet is every night and costs $21.80++ per person. It's actually cheaper compared to the other buffets in the city.

Bread section and some Malaysian Dish

Salad section

BBQ section - chicken, beef, pork, clam, fish, prawns, etc..

Sushi

Fresh Oysters

My favorite - salmon sashimi

Steam boat or stir-fry with veggies and noodles (not in picture though)

Dessert - fruits and some sweets.

I also love it that the coffee and tea are part of the buffet. And if the weather is good, you can even dine al fresco with a view of the Mekong River. It's perfect!

Coffee Shop: Gloria Jean's Coffees Phnom Penh

Hubby and I are coffee and tea lovers. We're lucky that Phnom Penh seems to have coffee shops in every corner of their tiny streets.

One of our favorite coffee shop is Gloria Jean's Coffees, an Australian-owned International chain of coffee shops. Gloria Jean's Coffees Phnom Penh's first store opened in 2010 and now they have three branches - BKK 1, Riverside and Canadia Tower.

We've been to three locations and our favorite place is in Riverside.
