Let's start with calm "Beer Evening" . Beer in Cambodia It is not difficult to find - dominates the beer Angkor, as well as the varieties of beer under the names of Cambodia, Phnom Penh, Banker, Anchor (pronounced An-Chor to distinguish it from Ang Cor) and Klang. If there is a passionate desire to drink 'proper' beer, drinks from the mini-brewerine of the Phnom Penh will definitely like.
At the far end of the embankment, Sisowat (Sisowath Quay), at the hotel Himawari Hotel (To be more accurate, 313 Sisowath Quay) Own mini brewery is open. The choice of beer is small there, but the price tag is quite high. Happy Watch is the best option to try the Dark Beer Gem and Jade, Lightly Elson and Red Dragon Cider with unusual aromas (in preparations used ingredients such as pithy and black pepper).
Next to Wat Bot you will find MUNICH BEER RESTAURANT (68 SOTHEAROS BOULEVARD) - another beer bar. Very popular with local drinking residents, with excellent snacks and two main types of beer. Below, if it is hot, you will blow the air conditioner, and at the top there is a great view of Vietnamese Friendship Park.
"Royal brewery" ("Kingdom Brewery") (at 1748 National Road 5) within a minute drive to Tuk-Tuka from the tourist part of the city, was opened in 2009 - the pilzner and the dark lager in German style are boiled.
By the way, in the city you can order a tour to this brewery, after which you can have a beer, for the process of production of which you just observed (along with snacks costs about $ 12). If you are not interested in the process of making beer, you can drink a hint drink from this plant in bars throughout the city.
Cider from Bruntys - The first Cydr Cambodia, which is produced on an industrial scale, and all thanks to the British from South-West England. The first batch of drink has become available in April 2013, and today it can be found in several bars in Phnom Penh, including Green Vespa. There is a traditional apple cider, there is a sweetest pear and strawberry.
Going further. Nightlife. Any evening in Phnom Penh must begin with sunset and river loving. For these purposes, head to any roof bar, for example, "Le Moon" (And he is also great to admire sunset from the deck of a cruise boat).
When the night has already come, it's time to dinner well. Beer gardens and spacious restaurants are scattered throughout the city, and most of them will offer the British menus, which is great. "SOVANNA RESTAURANT" on Street 21 (opposite the Willow Hotel) is popular among Cambodian families, emigrants and tourists - everyone comes here to the late dinner, in order to taste the pork grill and beef with a pepper sauce, or a healthy crab with rice, and all this is relying with a beer Angkor (which Bring in a jug).
Further go per party. Scroll through the magazines that you can offer you at the hotel - such as The Advisor and Wupp, and see what concerts and parties are scheduled. Bars Equinox and MetaHouse. As a rule, do not disappoint - there is live music or DJs (on weekends).
At a certain point, as a rule, after midnight, tourists becomes very necessary to go to nightclubs. Khmer nightclubs are very loud and drinks there is expensive. If clubs with seductive names "Egypt", "K Club" or "Nova" You are not impressed, follow the Street 51 in clubs HEART OF DARKNESS or "PONTOON".
Music in 'The Heart' is good, usually top 40 (well, something from very boring, like Gangnam Style), and "Pontoon" often invites foreign DJs - the entrance to such parties is paid (but not particularly expensive).
Street Street 51 It can offer a couple of workers in late night bars. So, if you just do not want to go home or have already lost a sense of direction and do not remember where your hotel (and do not even want to remember), try HOWIES, "THE DRUNKEN SPONGE" or "ZEPPELIN BAR" . Completely bars these are open up to 05:00. When the first rays of the Sun will penetrate the bar and you will ask you, so to speak, you can go to the Paddy Rice on the river bank, capture there Blood Mary and order a hamburger with bacon (the kitchen opens at 6:00).
If you are interested Drag Show , then about them a little more. In general, tourists often expect a "sharp" nightlife, similar to the one that in Thailand, but Phnom Penh is categorically not Bangkok. There are a lot of taboo, and it seems funny for the city, famous for its sex tourism. Fortunately, no prohibitions are applied to the Drag show and now there are several places in the capital, where you can enjoy this unusual action. It is worth noting that these shows here are clearly not at such a high level, as in Thailand, the suites from the artists are self-made, and they sing curved. But still, it's fun! Existing club since 2008 "Blue Chilli" (ST 178, 36) - Favorite among and expatov, and local.
The place is filled with guests very tight every Friday and Saturday in the evening - all come to lay on the show at 23:00, during which artist artists nepoupe swept the phonogram, having taught along the bar counter in shoes on such high heels, from the species of which even the most recoverable fashionable uncomfortable.If you do not want to be involved in the show, follow the rule "Never look to the transvestites in the eye", and generally sit down, where and the people are smaller and breathing easier.
Nearby is Rainbow Bar (ST 172, building 73).
Here you will perform a variety of "bienn" and "Nikki Minazh", and mostly the dance shows. Or, rather, dance. The shows take place every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and it is better to come early so as not to stand all the shows (and it starts usually at 22:00). If you ended up with a dealership to the beginning and the people, so much that you have to sit on a stool behind the boot, you can watch the show on the big screen - no wig and heel will take sight.
New club (in a couple of quarters from the above) - "2 colors" (ST 13, 225), with a pretty lounge atmosphere. On Thursdays, the drag show is held here, and they act these days many of the same "girls" as in Blue Chilli, so this is a good alternative if you could not look at the weekend show.
