Vegan and vegetarian in Phnom Penh
Plant-based is easier here than it used to be: vegetarian spots, a vegan café, a dosa place and a Khmer kitchen. Fish sauce hides in many dishes, so if you're vegan, ask the kitchen.
Khmer and Western with a vegetarian menu (tofu amok). Not fully vegetarian, so ask what's vegan. $5–10.
Fully vegetarian Khmer, often with soy-based meat substitutes. Cheap, $2–5. Vegans, ask about fish sauce.
Fully vegan, calm and cosy. Mediterranean and Asian dishes; the vegan pizza gets praise. $8–14. Check hours.
Vegetarian, opens 6:30am for an early breakfast. Good value, free tea, $3–6.
Vegetarian and vegan Khmer buffet. Try the vegan amok and red curry, $2–5. Not everything is vegan, so ask.
Dosas, tofu tikka masala, tandoor dishes and chai, mostly vegan. $8–15. Closed Mondays.
