A new and large Angkor Market opened a few weeks ago in Siem Reap. Its on Route 6 on the left hand side if your going from town towards the airport.
Drove out for the first time yesterday. Have to say I was impressed. In the other Angkor market locations they always did a nice job cramming in a lot of selection - but it was often hit and miss as to what they would stock.
This new location is much like a Western Supermarket. They have a large selection of goods and produce. Lots of fresh meat. 2nd floor has home goods ( could use some signs on the aisles to help find stuff). Saw Australian sirloin, lots of seafood, good selection of fruits/vegetables. Didn't get to simple browse through as we were buying stuff for a party last night but was pleasantly surprised with what I did see.
If your living in Siem Reap might we worth the drive out - especially if there is something you can't find elsewhere.

Yes, it's very good. I live just up the road, so it's a very welcome addition.
I recommend the 5L boxes of crisp, dry white wine from Berri Estates. Delicious served chilled and only $17.50!
And they always give new, shiny dollar bills for your change - even to barang!

I was surprised to see cans of McEwan's Export and Boddingtons 'Draught' today in Angkor Market on road 6, Siem Reap. The Boddies (as it is known in Manchester) even has the little plastic widget inside to ensure a creamy head (1st used by the Guinness company in the 60s).
I forced myself (he he) to drink one of each just now and they were good - I think I preferred the Boddies.
McEwan's = $1.95/500ml can
Boddies = $1.80/440ml can
