Mount Everest:
I can't recommend this place highly enough - The owners are great guys - very very nice and they really reward repeat customers. While waiting for takeaway (a short 10min wait) they fed us with papadums (sp?) - we ate three serves before our food was ready, they just kept coming out!
Ordering over the phone is very very easy, they take the time to understand your directions so they get to your house quickly and before the food gets cold!
The food is fantastic - very large portions as well! I recommend the Chicken Masala, Chicken roganjosh (sp?) and garlic narn (sp?) - I've fed three people to stuffing point on one serve of chicken roganjosh, one serve or rice and one serve of garlic narn. We were all stuffed to the brim! - The mango lassies are also fantastic!
My best ordering experience in phnom penh, was when thier delivery guy didn't have exact change for our $8:30 order (feeding three people) - without a single hesitation he just said "$8 ok" - I gave him $9 because I was so impressed!
All in all - this place is fantastic! Great for a lazy sunday takeaway. Fantastic food, incredible service, huge portions and great value.
Steves Steakhouse
Steves steakhouse seems to have a bit of a bad reputation. Having been to steves many times in the last six months, I really can't understand it.
I've got greek blood, and speaking from experience, their greek dishes are pretty damn good! I've even had a meal of only Tzatziki and pita bread! Their lamb souvlaki is sensational!
Well they have just finished renovating and the it looks fantastic! There is a nice clean indoor airconditioned area (with an air filter as well?) - and now their outdoor area and bar has just been completed. Its a very nice place to sit, the bar looks fantastic, and they now have two pool tables. A big screen on the wall and a TV over the bar to complete the package.
Its very hard to judge where steves should fit in the spectrum - it looks like a great sports bar, but i would also recommend it as a nice restaurant!
If you've been to steves in the past and been disapointed, its worth a second chance! While I dont personally like the american style beef, the greek food and burgers are fantastic.
Service is excellent and prices are resonable, the setting is very nice with a lot of options (ac/outdoors etc). Two pool tables goes down well with me, because there is nothing worse than table hogs.
Hope I've been helpful.
Mount Everest and Steves Steakhouse
I'm going to disagree with this - In terms of indian food in Cambodia, Mount everest is very reasonable! Also, if you only order what you can eat (and I can eat as much as any self respecting bloke) you can feed 3 people for under $10.BirdBrain wrote:Mount Everest is one of my favourite PP restaurants. A little expensive but well worth it.
Last time I went, we ordered a Chicken Masala, Chicken Roganjosh, 4 Garlic Narn, 2 Vegitarian Semosas, 3 serves of rice and two mango lassies. $23 and we had a feast for 6, with heaps of leftovers (still haven't managed to polish them off)
so yes, if you order a curry, a rice and a drink each, then share two types of narn, its going to be expensive, but your also going to walk out full to the brim and leaving heaps of food on the table.
I lived in Cambo for two years and frequented Mt Everest on many occasion. The owners always gave us a discount.
The important thing is my wife and mother in law liked it, and they are both of Indian desent, nobody is more critical of Indian food than Indians.
I can still remember ordering a Chicken Biryani home deivered for US$3.50, it was big enough to make two meals for my wife and I, so it equated to US$0.81 a meal.

I first started going to Steve's back in 99 when it was on Norodom. I have often drunk with Steve in that old place and the new one and even with his dad when he was out from the States, and had a few games of pool etc in the current place. His wife ran one of the schools here. Haven't been there for a year or so though so don't know how it is these days. Before it was really the only place I knew in town to get some decent Greek food
There is nothing more Australian than spending time in somebody else's country
I dont think his name is actually steve - but yes, he is a massive gas bag and sometimes I just want to eat my dinner in peace rather than discussing how his cambodian beef is better than australian beef - toss pot! But I haven't seen him in the last XX times I've visited steves steakhouse so its not been a problem, and in the past I would just look at my food until he walked past.keeping_it_riel wrote:But Steve though......
Have you actually met him?
This country is too small for me to be saying bad things about something, so mr steakhouse if your reading this, I'm sorry but if you have to talk, you really should find something interesting to talk about.

Mount Everest is OK, but not a patch on Sher-el-Punjab.
