Amok, Angkor Palm Restaurant, Siem Reap, Cambodia, taken July 2010.
Amok, baked fish in banana leaf, is the most popular dish in this trendy Seam Reap restaurant. It has been featured on Cambodian TV, lauded in my Lonely Planet guide, and probably reviewed online extensively. I can't help but feel that Khmer cuisine contains overtones of the French kitchen that was introduced to Cambodia during the 100-year-long French occupation.
