Meanwhile she boiled a pot of water with a couple of stalks of lemon grass and a bunch of basil.

The snails were added to the pot and boiled for about 5 or 6 minutes and served hot. She made a dip of salt, pepper and lime juice. They tasted like heaven. For your information, they costs 3000 riel a kilo, about USD0.75, and these were just slightly smaller than a tennis ball.

Make sure you get a dose of deworming tablets when u get home and also ask your doctor for a dose of fluke meds. Snails are great but freshwater snails, because they are collected from paddy fields (where pig and anumal excrement is used as fertilizer) they tend to have all sorts of nasties like flukes, flatworms etc

Thks for the advice. I have a cast iron stomach. I am quite adventurous when it comes to eating, always like to anything new even if it looks intimidating. Philosophy is if don't like after tasting, that will be the last time.

Only time I had serious food poisoning was way back in '84 in Manila. The daily brownouts caused food to deteriorate in the fridges and stupidly we had sashimi.

Even in India I had no problem, but I need to mention only bottled water and hot piping food there.

Paris is one of the best choice. $20 ST and $5 for massage. Do not pay anything more than that. They will said they give good service and ask for more. Just BS.
Mean Haur had been fine by govt and now unless you are old timer there is no action.

Faidenk your blog is very entertaining and a good read.
Your writing style has captured my imagination and piqued my interest.

It would be a pleasure to call upon your hospitality and buy you a beer one day as I am interested to explore the khamer and visit you, just to see the sights and sounds myself.

Kudos for your efforts in updating this thread from scratch and I hope you do not stop updating as I really enjoy your writing and little adventures.

Cheers!

Just went PP recently and just sharing my happy moment over there.

Before going,i pm TS on which hotel or guesthouse to stay and he recomend me a good one which is affordable,clean and good security.Right opposite is a eatery and also 1 that was open by a singaporean which sell our local food.

Reach there and contact TS,too bad due to some hipcup,i was not able to see him on the first night.On my 2nd day,i use the hotel phone and manage to get him.Meet him near soraya shopping center during noon time and have a chat with him at the food court.Later i follow him to his usual snooker place.pretty and young girl over as marker.TS told me they are much fairer and yound and told me there is 2 ktv room upstairs and can bring them up after the game.

his friend came few hours later and we proceed to st 136.Usual few places he frequent,sizzer,136 and others.girls plently and we go bar hopping and roam around before proceeding to ktv.Room was damm big with personal toliet attach inside and 1 personal waitress keying in the songs for u.Mummy came and lead girls in.Each time is 4 or 5 girls.choose mine and sit down with her.have a chat with TS and was told they charge 80 usd and above for overnight.Was quite suprise and told TS that is a bit expensive for the standard compare to st 136 girls which charge maybe lower,he agree and say that is the standard charge for girls from KTV.The girl i sat with dont seem like interested in me and she did not speak any english,so my night was spend alone but never the less,is great to go their ktv and experience and TS told me that standard ktv tips is at least 10 usd,so i gave her and left with TS and friend for supper

[Golden question]

next day wake up and receive a call from TS and asking me to go ST 136 bar hopping tonight.Agree and met him at st 136.Roam around and was bring to st 51.Is also a pub street with disco,heart of darkness, there.We went to a place call shanghai and sat st the bar counter.Pretty and young girls will come and chat with u.Very friendly.Before going in,he told me that the girls can be quite pushy in ladies drink and i should ignore if i dont feel like buying and was told that normally those girls will not go out with customers.

Later we roam around and TS bring us to walkabout.Is a non aircon place and TS told me is famous for some ang mo who can get a cheap fuck for less than 15 USD.we return to st 136 and end our day there

[Golden question]

3rd day,got a call from TS that he got something on today so wont be meeting me.I say is ok cos i also must understand he got his own things to do also,so i venture out myself.Went to paris for massage.Rate as usual,5 usd for massage and 20 usd for fuck.Choose a big neh neh.I think at least d cup but a bit meaty.suck like no tomorrow and ended happily.Spend my night at bar hopping at st 136.went to mr butterfly,lots of girl and as usual,they will crowd around u and chat with u so they will have a chance to ask u to buy lady drink.1 draught beer cos more compare to others but was quite fun there.Tips is normally 1USD but u can pay more if u find that the girl is good.

Ask a girl for ST and was quoted 50 usd.Bargain down to 30 usd.went back to my room but she was damm drunk but also makes it more fun.After the deed is done,she left my room.Ring ring,i answer my room phone,lobby staff call me and ask me:the lady go ok.I reply ok,seem that they are good in ensuring customer security

[Golden question]

spend my few days there and went to luxury massage.TS and friends never try before,so i might as well go and try.Went there and was brought to a room to choose the girl,around 30 girls to choose.quality and looks is better compare to paris but more expensive.10 usd for massage and 40 usd for fuck.room was excellent with big mirrors on 4 side of the wall and also on the celling.so u can see around when fucking her.

spend my last night at sizzer and ask 1 for ST and was told she afraid to go cos those girls know she dont go out with customer,After some pestering,she agreed but want 1 of her friend to go out together meaning to say i have to bar fine 10usd each.I ask why and she told me,like that the ladies there will not think we go hotel but disco.I refuse and ended up alone sleeping.

Really must thank TS for showing me around

Yo GQ,

Actually there's one place I would have like to bring you, a beer garden. There's a huge one with more than 200 girls. Many good looking, problem is most of them speaks English as much as you speak Khmer. Cheap beer and food. I would put it down as an experience. Next time, perhaps. Cheers.

Have been busy looking busy. The truth is writer's block and lack of anything exciting to write about. There's only so much things mundane one can write about. I hope to be a little more active from now.
