I had some pretty naff food in Oz but the meat pies were really the pits. I do not believe the only meat in there is Wombat road kill.spitthedog wrote:23 million Australians can't be wrong about the quality of good ol' traditional British grub can they?

I have to agree with Ricecakes. I was last there maybe a year ago for a Sunday roast. Next to us was this totally drunk and equally loud pom (at around 11am) who obviously hadn't slept a wink, but had rather powered through the night drinking heavily. That was a bit annoying, but what made it really weird was that next to him was his teenage son (as in, around 15) who didn't look drunk, but could barely stay awake. I assume they'd been drinking and whoring the whole night or something. Either way, that's one of the better types of Paddy Rice clientele.

Sure he was a Pom? He might have been an elocuted yank, maybe?
Nothing but an opinionated tourist. The Pope spends more time in countries than I do ! It is also not my place to comment on a gentleman's dress. A real 23 minute wonder, that obviously knows little about ovens and cooking in Cambodia.

Fixed that for ya

I went for lunch at the Fish and Co in Aeon a few days ago, and a male waiter brought over the food along with a foul stench of body odor. It was absolutely disgusting! Some of the guys working at Lucky supermarket are in need of a good scrub too, even the guys refilling the deodorants are stinky as hell.
So my question is, what would you do? Would you ignore it and not dine there again, speak to the manager, or tell them straight?

So a couple of days ago I heard a rumour that Paddy Rice had closed.
Doors shuttered, furniture being taken out, et cetera.
This morning, as I was in town anyway, I took a slow drive along the riverfront and sure enough all was shuttered up, except for a small doorway in the middle, from which several Khmer workmen seemed to be meandering in and out and generally looking shifty and workshy.
Guess another one bites the dust.

Had a chat with the former Englishman manager while the place was being cleared out. 18 months of losses, worst in the 10 years he has bern there. A 14-storey building is going up there, and 5 more curved buildings across the river, being built by Sokha or some company like that. They have hotels here and in Siem Riep. A lot more places to be shuttering this year apparently.
I always kind of liked Paddy Rice, especially Saturday football and rugby nights. The 1/2 brekky was good ....Never ate anything else there. The guys behind the bar were excellent but the waitresses were usually lousy. The former manager is taking a few months off and might decide on another bar/restaurant.

Paddy had annual halloween parties (see their photos) and Xmas dinners which seemed to go over well over the years. And Saint Patrick's day was popular too...There are definately worse places.

I heard it was just that the lease was up and the price was increasing too much to renew.
