Taking out a girl - where to go?
[quote="gavinmac"]Oh dear. So I'm guessing your budget for dinner for the two of you is about $7. That changes things.
I'd say Romdeng. It's near Street 172, it's not expensive if you forbid her from ordering the crab.[/quote]heh. I had thought perhaps I don’t know, maybe around $50 for taxi, dinner and cinema.
I have a flat here, it’s actually quite nice. But it costs $700/month and I know I could probably get something nicer somewhere else. Just haven’t gotten around to even looking yet.

No. Don't much like it here. I think it may have been a mistake to tell girls where I live. It's probably got a lousy reputation, but it's not like I knew that.batshitcrazyweirdo wrote:And then again, you could just go up and down street 172 until you know every beggar, thief, grass patch, fly patch, dry patch, watering hole and 'food' there is.

For $700 a month you could rent an entire guesthouse on Street 172.
Let's me give some other advice on first dates with Cambodian women. They can be particular about where they are comfortable eating based on location of restaurant, type of food, whether it's too high class or too low class for them, etc.
But you can't ask them "Where do you want to go?" because they will say "up to you" and you'll just look like an indecisive pussy.
I have found the best approach is to offer two places and let them choose, usually they will want to veto one of them.
"We can go to place A it's located here they serve pizza and oysters"
"Or we can go to place B it's located here and they serve Khmer food and donuts"
She will have a strong preference for one or the other.
Malis is very good, sort of a traditional-ish, very nice Khmer restaurant, classy, romantic, 50/50 Westerners and Khmers.
Chinese House is in a stunning building on the riverside though way north of the regular riverside action.
Mango Mango is good, live music, Khmer nouveau riche like to be seen there, not intimate though because the area out front is near the live music and the area in the back is near a pool table and thus more like a pub.
Khmer chicks will very often want to go to the Riverside to eat. Not sure why but they do.
Lastly, consider this important tip I gave on a prior thread. You're welcome.

It's worth noting that gavinmac is Cambodia's leading authority on first dates with Cambodian women.gavinmac wrote:Let's me give some other advice on first dates with Cambodian women.
He doesn't have a clue about second dates, though.

Mango Mango is located near the Russian Embassy, same street as Forest and Bottoms Up and I think Boss Club and Puzzles Gastropub. There's a whole restaurant row there for young, well off Khmers.horace wrote:GM where is mango mango?

During my dating days I liked the open air khmer restaurants. Usually the better the food, the worse the atmosphere and vice versa. After that you could drive around koh pich or sit by the river somewhere.
For long term dating we'd have a khmer dinner as usual then go to a tourist bar and restaurant I liked to hang out at. Once she felt more comfortable around tourists we started eating dinner there. I'm pretty shy myself so I don't want a bunch of friends witnessing my early dates.

Rune, you've been offered some good advice, and some not so good. This forum is awash with helpful information for you (and can certainly be useful for you to find a new place off of st 172). However, this is a two-way relationship here, and you'll get better information the more you interact. On that note, when asking dating advice, it's always nice to divulge an after-action report for us. You know, just the basics: Where did you go? How was it? Did she ask you to marry her?
You see, this all helps gavinmac's decade(s) long analysis of dating Khmer women. He's analyzed everything from "Do Khmer women have bigger ears than western women" to "Why does my Cambodian chick call so often and at strange hours?" and even, if the time comes, "How much should you pay for an engagement ring for a Cambodian woman." In fact, he can even tell you if you should or should not 'friend' them on Facebook, or should or should not marry a Khmer woman. But, in the end, this may be the most useful advice, for when the inevitable happens: On the Proper Etiquette when Seeing an Ex-Bargirl with Her New Husband

Mango Mango is on the back street (river side) leading to Aaon Mall. It's actually a fun place to hang out. gavinmac is right, its for well to do Khmers. On a side note, the food and service is pretty good. At one time they had a smoking hot female DJ working there.gavinmac wrote:Mango Mango is located near the Russian Embassy, same street as Forest and Bottoms Up and I think Boss Club and Puzzles Gastropub.
