I love your wording when you are describing the food, and they are not scripted as well, just instant reactions, which makes it even better. Feel like this is something a lot of vloggers are missing.

Aw you're so welcome tony!!!! So glad you enjoyed those 3 spots!
the food they all look good, thanks for sharing we might go there on August. I was surprise she can ate a lot the sushi lol and rice with meat amazing girl. I only can eat nigiri already full, cant eat too much rice.
Thank you for this video! Loved your suggestions and reactions to each food. Also loved the price breakdown. I think it would be super helpful if you could also put timestamps or sections for each restaurant in your videos for ease.

Great video ! I'm heading to Vancouver BC at the end of April for the Richmond Night Market. I hope it's still happening since it closed for Covid. I definitely want to try Phnom Penh ! I really like how you have the restaurant name and address on the screen as well as what you ordered and it's price !
I love these kinda videos, I’m such a foodie😅
Thank you for suggesting Tom Sushi, the Salmon Jalapeno Aburi Hako was definitely something to write home about! Everything was sooooo good. From the Miso soup to the scallop Motoyaki!

Just tried the Phnom Pehn location due to your recommendation. Butter chicken was 🔥🔥👍 Their butter beef was okay. Also tried their lemongrass chicken and was super disappointed. As a Cambodian, I don’t know if the chef was just off with their cooking that day but it tasted like a water downed version of what legit Cambodian lemongrass chicken is. Also I the owners didn’t seem to be 100% Cambodian, definitely seemed like they were mixed with Chinese or Vietnamese. Maybe that’s why their Cambodian flavor was off, but the Vietnamese food was good.

That's what I was saying when I was watching this video. Phnom Penh restaurant had no khmer writing on their signage nor their menu, most of the foods are vietnamese, barely any cambodian dishes... not sure why it's called Phnom Penh Restaurant...

The nigiri pieces you mentioned did not look like toro...those who have had toro of any kind would know. You might of gotten served Escolar instead which restaurants pass off as toro. Also Hamachi is not tuna...

You must be rich to be able to afford to eat out like this.
I am Canadian born and raised. I lived in Vancouver for about 30 years and have tried to like Asian food. By and large it just sucks. I have tried EVERYTHING. Some really gross stuff is Shanghai. Who takes good food and just boils the crap out of it? Then try to make up for that centuries old mistake by drowning it in sauce. Mongolian kinda makes up for that travesty. Some of the sushi is not bad but that mostly just sucks. It's sad this person advertises THREE restaurants and never leaves chinatown???? crikey
