Everyone raves about them. I love it. Been going for years and all my friends always order the fried chicken dish.

Their chicken tastes consistently good all the time. Almost too consistent, lol.

So my question is, does their fried chicken wings have MSG (and in their other dishes)?

I suspect so, but I wanted to hear your thoughts, theories on this..

:D

The secret is love.

[Vale46Rossi]

Fuck, now I want to go eat Phnom Penh.

[kevin7352]

too much MSG bro.















:megusta:


on a side note, me and my gf noticed that if you got the large, they just load it up with wing tips LOL. it might be because the time we got a small we got lucky and there weren't any tips.
also the butter beef is kind of overrated and overpriced

[Vale46Rossi]

I always go for

Small Chicken Wings

Large Calamari

Beef and egg on rice

Lemon soda


So fucking good.

[NSX]

Man the sauce makes it so much better.

[twitchyzero]

^ the sauce is crazy good...but it masks the flavour of the already amazing seasoning on the wings

[Vansterdam]

place is good but i fucking hate the horrible waiting times

Gah this thread makes me want to go the Pnom Penh whyyyyy

[chin3se604]

sooo delish, had them last friday

also love their beef and egg /w rice :sweetjesus:

[Culverin]

From what I've been able to pick out, the sauce consists of at least lime juice and white pepper.

I kinda wish I knew south east asian cuisine better so I can reverse engineer their food :okay:

[Verdasco]

u fuckers forgot to say durian rice dessert, shits the bomb........ always have to order 2 plates... so small :okay:

[Vansterdam]

One would think that it is coated with salt.

But then again, that what normally happens when doing basic seasoning.

This is in chinatown right?
I haven't been to chinatown in awhile, can anyone vouch for parking in the afternoon lol.
I expect it to be a bit of a challenge and probably park a block or so away

wait a few mins you're bound to find parking infront of the store if not on the same street. Turnover is pretty high for their tables.

Chicken Wings (Large)
Deep Fried Squid (Large)
Lo Mein (with both kind of noodles)
Salad Roll
:sweetjesus:

[Vale46Rossi]

^

LOL

$3 "option"

[Verdasco]

wtf is the 3 dollar option lol

[Vale46Rossi]

He means changing the rice to fried rice.

[gdoh]

you guys make this place sound super good. time to go try it this weekend with the gf =]

[Ronin]

Essential eating: wings, butter beef, dry pho. Butter beef is overpriced but damn its good.

i would also add Beef Luc Lac (with option of fried rice instead of regular rice)

[dlo]

wait, whats the dry pho?

[murd0c]

so what is it, rare beef with what on top? remember you are talking to a white guy here lol

[shawnly1000]

so what is it, rare beef with what on top? remember you are talking to a white guy here lol

Rare beef with a citrusy/salty sauce, cilantro and fried onions/shallots.

[shawnly1000]

wait, whats the dry pho?

Think he's referring to the dry noodles (egg and/or rice noodles) with the sauce.

[Jer3]

oh wtf i never knew u could upgrade the rice in the beef luc lac to fried rice. all this time ive been ordering both the beef luc lac and fried rice separately...

[R&R]

where is this place?!

[Cassijon]

i wish this place was still on broadway... they had WAY more space... now its too fucking small that the wait is always ridiculous

[roflwaffle604]

where is this place?!

244 East Georgia Street, Vancouver
https://maps.google.ca/maps?ie=UTF8&cid=5639587481202505183&q=Phnom+Penh+Restaurant+Ltd&iwloc=A&gl=CA&hl=en

Dammit been craving Phnom Penh all week because of this thread

[TRDood]

Given the hype, I waited for an hour to try their food.

Wings 7/10 - the oil and sauce was too strong. It's more oily than "wind-sand" wings at Arberdeen but not as good.
Pho 6/10 - probably not my taste. It has a totally different broth.

The prices are quite expensive. I'd rather eat at a less busy pho place and skip the wait.

[bcrdukes]

Ummm...Phnom Pehn is not a pho place.

[RFlush]

so is your blog :ilied:

LOL

[Atsui]

how much is the butter beef

[soymilk]

$14

[european]

Looks good. I would like to know if there is MSG in there as well. A friend once said not to worry about MSG as it stands for mmmm so good!



lol

[Euro7r]

Food there must contains drugs or something in them :troll:. So good though :fullofwin:! But it's pricey for their chicken wings. I usually order wings and noodle soup.

[winson604]

My gf and I have actually found the quality of the wings to have gone down in the past year or so. Now with that said though, they basically went from a 10/10 to a 8/10 for me which is still better than most of the other wings so it's still sick in my books.

For those who don't want to go through the horrible wait times might want to consider Indochine on E Broadway. It's the son of Phnom Pehn who opened it and you can get the top 3 items there. Wings, butter beef, and Luc lac beef. The wings are for the most part the same but no tips, butter beef I haven't trie but looks the same, and the beef comes with fired rice and uses beef cubes instead of slices. So pretty close but not EXACT. It will definitely taste familiar for sure.

[winson604]

Thought I might as well post pics of what Indochine's dishes look like

Thanks jtrinh for reading! :)

AFAIK, they still do.
Very busy on Wednesdays though, for obvious reasons.

Phnom penh's wings definitely went downhill, I was there on sat.
Could use more garlic and they used to have a sweet aftertaste that I don't get anymore
The lemongrass chicken isn't as good either, not sure if it's just not as good on the weekends cause of how busy it is.
Butter beef still orgasmic.

QFT. I miss that sweet kick. Had some yesterday, and to be honest I keep going back to them assuming I got a bad batch the last time. But it's been too many batches :okay:

[wuuhoo]

went to indochine yesterday with the gf. The wings + butter beef are pretty good. Very similar to phnom penh but without the line up.

Half off on wings too :woot2:

[jonwon]

^ went yesterday as well, the beef luc lac was pretty good as well. also the waitress said from 3pm-6pm all dishes are 15% off

2 beef luc lacs, butter beef and an order of wings was about 40 with tax and tips included

[vanle]

have to try it, looks good
