Any expats currently in Phnom Penh? =)

Hi guys,

I'm just writing to see if there are any expats currently in Phnom Penh who would like to meet up and maybe grab a beer or two?

I just came here yesterday and will be here until August. Hopefully I'll have time to do all the touristy things as well as working so if you haven't been to angkor wat yet I'm up for it ;)

Cheers,
Max

Hello Max,

Welcome to Expat.com!

Nice idea! Hope you make lots of contacts here. ;)

Regards,
Pravin.

Hi max...
Come back on this forum on Friday afternoon...
Sure some of us will have a drink during the weekend.

I want to join the next expat meet up too! :)

Hi Samantha1...
I haven't heard about the expat meet up since a long time... guess everyone is very busy. ... :)
However, I'm usually having few drinks with "who wants to" on Fridays and Saturdays.
As I said to max, come back on this forum on Friday for more updates about this weekend.

When this workweek is over i'll definitly go out for drinks :-)

Hope so ! :lol::lol::lol:

sounds awesome! i hope i'll see you friday or saturday than =)

cheers!

So...
Samantha1, max a and 1Helio. ... let's talk about this friday.
Samatha1, I just see now that you are in Cambodia since 2010....! So you should be the one telling us where we could go tomorrow. I am thinking about eating something first and then having a drink somewhere. ..
But I really don't know where.

Hi everyone,

Hope you don't mind one more person joining :)!

I have been in Phnom Penh for a month now and haven't been out much. I look forward to getting a drink or two tomorrow.

Hi Nikunjoli
We will be happy to have you joining us.
Welcome in Cambodia.

Friday! What kind of food are you all into?

Well ... can not talk for the others.. but as for me, I can eat ALL kind of food... I like khmer food and western food... but usually khmer food is cheaper... so lets wait the others to answer...

If it's okay with you guys I prefer NOT to drive to the Burger King at the airport for a bite :D

Khmer/Thai works for me. Or Mexican. Or BBQ might be nice too.

Cheers

Michel

Great...
now let's wait for max's answer...
After all, he created this post! :D

hi guys! nice to see we'll be a few =)

should we go for local food than?
I don't know many places yet, so far I've only been to a few places riverside were I stay,
equinox on a music quiz, which was awesome (I liked that area, don't what it's called though) and somewhere close to where they have have a lot of weddings hehe (that place was also nice, but more for eating than drinking)..

But if you don't mind, I'll leave it to you guys to pick a place =)

See you guys tomorrow!

Great...
So Samantha1. .. we are now listing to you :D
Seems to be khmer food.
You have a whole day to make a choice...
Just let us know ASAP at what time and where we meet.

Oh the pressure. Well Boat Noodle on street 294 has really good Khmer food but the service is awful, more than usual for Cambodia. There's a place called Chinese Noodle on Monivong that does hand-pulled noodles which are so good, but not much else. There's Romdeng Restaurant, which is an NGO place on street 174 but it closes at 9 o'clock. Any preferences? Time?

Well.. don't worry. ...
The point is first to meet each others... eating is just a plus :D
I think we have to meet on Riverside. .. not too late because most of the places we could go are closing quite early.
What about 7:45PM?
Will that be okay for everyone?
We could meet in the Riverside Bistro corner Preah Sisowath and st. 148.

Any plans for this Friday? :)

Yep... should do something.
One more girl...
Jenna... from Australia.
Any suggestions?

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say : eat-drink-music-drinksomemore :D

Not too loud the music please... I am getting older now :lol:

Besides contact lenses falling out because of the base line, the free eye surgery when looking into one of the lasers and the excess men in black that don't know if they have to serve you or shoot you ..it's not so bad :D

Free beer for who knows what place I'm talking about :P
