There is a popular restaurant in Siem Reap that is named for this national dish, and their sign boasts of having the best amok in the city. It's located in one of the alleys of Pub street and is alongside other restaurants. There is something about Amok though. When you first sit down at Amok for dinner, you might feel as if you're no longer in Cambodia. The warm decor, the colorful table settings, and the white and blue china all seem to suggest that you're anywhere but Cambodia. It's as if you're tucked in a little, exotic place, somewhere far, far away in the East. But wait a minute, Cambodia does meet that description! It all comes back as soon as the waiter smiles at you. Then you're back in the land of the smiles, Cambodia.
