Shocking Food Market In Cambodia

Welcome to a new vlog guys. Today we are going around a small market here in Siem Reap and we're checking out all the local stuff that they make. So all the stuff here that you've just seen in that intro is all made by local Cambodian people and this is where it's like really really different to Thailand because there was nothing like that in Thailand that we saw. This is all like fine jewellery, paintings, t-shirts, all that kind of stuff. We do need to get some food in a minute and I'm in need of a coffee as always but this is really cool. We're also going to check out in a minute another market which is like the main Siem Reap market near the river. It's one that we swung past the other day and it was super super busy. This is nice and chilled. It's Sunday here today which is like their holy It's a lot quieter on the street so we were wondering if the other market's going to be quiet as well. The other day it was packed but I think now we need to get some food. We've got some iced lattes. It's very hot again today and I feel like drinking a massive one of these will cool me down and we can look through the market a bit better. They're huge. They are actually massive but what I like here is that they keep asking me if I want sugar or not so instead of just putting loads of sugar syrup in it they say do you want sugar or not and I go for no because otherwise it's a bit sweet and it's better for you. Although I did have a little bit today in this one but it's all good. We're going to get some food first. We found this sort of more local looking street. It looks much much more local. Prices are much cheaper. It's like $1.50 for some fried rice compared to like $7. It's much better. Kimchi fried rice. That sounds good. That looks good. That looks great. Get a fried egg with it. Thank you. Thank you. I've got one of these and one of these. One with not an egg on top. That's the only difference I can see. This looks so good. So the actual only difference by the looks is the fried egg. It's not going to shock me is it? No it's not. How is it? Really nice and it's making it taste nicer how cheap it is. Oh yeah this was $1.50. I really want to pop your egg can I? You want to? Yeah go on then. Sorry is that not talent? I've just popped an egg and it's not done anything. No don't make it all. Okay. Oh nice. Perfect. That'll actually be so nice in your rice. I was going to fall off the plate. We've just been having a chat here about the fake watches that they sell in the markets. There's so much fake stuff like t-shirts. Supreme t-shirts. Adidas trainers. Whatever you can think of in England. Rolex watches. Ray-Ban sunglasses which I did buy the other day. These are good quality though. You wouldn't know the difference if I wore these in England. I said to Lucy shall I get a watch? She said it's such a nice looking watch. I felt it was really light. Lucy was like no you cannot do that. You can't spend $20 on a Rolex and go home and wear it. So you've got to work for a Rolex George. You've got to earn it. You can't just buy a cheap fake and just wear it around. So we don't know if we've explained much about the currency here. The US dollars is what you've been using and it's widely accepted here. Everything's in dollars. But Riyal is like the Cambodian currency. If you get change back that's less than a dollar they give it to you. Even if you pay in US dollars they give it to you back in Riyal. And two thousand of it is worth 50 cents. Our dinner was $3.50 for both of us so we're going to pay 50 cent of it with this. We're going in. Hello. So many different things. There's like loads of jewellery and they've drawn a huge line on it so it looks nice and sparkly. Loads of like fabric stuff and scarves. Pretty much whatever you can think of. If we were on holiday for a few weeks I'd literally like come up with an empty suitcase, buy everything and take it home. It's all so cheap and there's so many things I'd want to take home here but we can't. This whole section is jewellery. As it's a Sunday there's loads of children here. There weren't any the other day when we came on the weekday. I guess it's because normally they're in school but now like their parents' businesses in this market they just come along for the day and chill out in the market. Such a cool way to spend your weekend. And as expected it is actually quieter. Much quieter than the other night. It's like we've got the place ourselves and it's so big you could get lost. This is a shop just dedicated to like Buddha statues and stuff. And of course... Hello. Without being big-headed I've been called beautiful about 89 times today and my confidence is through the roof. I haven't. You got called handsome once. That's true. The food bit now, it looks like there's no tourists in it and it's like the food for the weekend. Yeah it looks like that. Fresh ingredients. Nice. So that was so cool to see that market. It's absolutely massive. You can definitely get lost in there if you weren't careful. We kept coming out, popping out, we're like where are we? Are we near the river? You can use the river as a bit of a guide to where you are. It goes all the way down there, all the way along and then back to this river here. It's always like on one side of it. If you find the river you know you're all good. Some of the food we saw in there was like quite more shocking to us because like in a British supermarket or something all the meat, and it's really bad to say we're meat eaters, but all the meat in England obviously as you know is chopped up, ready to go, packaged up, looks nice, nice packaging stuff. There it was literally like chickens just out. Like the feathers were off, their heads were still on, skin was still on and for us it was quite like whoa that's that's like in a way hard to look at which is totally totally we do eat meat so we shouldn't be shocked by it but we're not used to seeing that every day so it's kind of kind of weird but and they were also fish like still alive like just flopping around dying basically and they were just like chucking around ripping their guts out and things so but that's that's the way it is. We probably just ate some in our rice so so we can't really say a lot. Yep found a little shop to get some snacks for later. Ice cream. We've been spending too much money on dinners so we're getting some 25 cent dinners for tonight. I don't know what these will be like. Hotel dinner. Trying it all. We are so tight I swear. No our dinner's even up with $17. This is a 50 cent 50 cent dinner. Not bad. I want a Magnum so bad. I'm gonna be healthy. Nice nips Louise. We've just picked up a can of beer and it's about 15p. Thank you. We've literally been walking around for the last 15 minutes like with no GPS again in a maze of all these roads trying to remember where the laundry place is. We've now found it but everywhere looks very similar and you can't be like oh there's a Tesco there it's near that it's all like very little shops and like restaurants and stuff but none of them are like particularly like stand out so it's so hard to work out where you are but thankfully we've found it. The benefit is though we've stumbled across a nice spot for a sunset. We can see our clothes in there. Swim time. You alright? This is our last night at this hotel and we are so gonna miss this port. It's been so so nice. We've loved just at the end of a long day out in the heat and stuff. Coming here in the evenings having a swim for an hour or so. We're gonna end this video here now guys. Thank you so much for watching today. We hope you enjoyed exploring the markets and what else have we done today? Tomorrow we leave Seymour East which we're very excited about. We go to somewhere new and somewhere very nice actually. We're very excited to go here. Please leave a comment if you enjoyed this video and we'll see you tomorrow. Bye!
