Read about this interesting culinary spot in the Lonely Planet guide book and figured why not! The experience was superbly pleasant from start to finish. The owner, a friendly, fun, enthusiastic gentleman was very thorough, helpful and ...encouraging. The food itself was delicious . Yes they are insects, yes it takes a mental leap of faith but yes you will be fine and you will feel full and satisfied. I did stick around for dessert (opted for no insects) which was beyond delicious. I highly recommend you make this place a stop during your Siem Reap travels! It will at the very least be something to talk about!

Although it may sound and look scary but the waiters/owner are there to explain their menu from A to Z in a humorous way that somehow makes you feel confident to try their gross dishes. I tried tarantula, silk worms, ants, dragonflies and crickets, they're OKAY, taste good (as in the sauce and presentation and freshness). But beware if they're someone in your group that might be allergic. My friend had allergy right after the meal and got red dots over his neck. We got him to a nearby pharmacy for medicine and he was ok after that.

We had the discovery plate to share amongst 4 people. It was my first time trying insects so i had a little trepidation, but the owner wonderfully explained everything and the best way to eat it. More or less everything just tasted like very crispy seafood or chicken, the scorpion body was a bit bitter and the water bug was extremely crispy, but all in all it was an excellent meal, and a fantastic i introduction to insects. The restaurant had also created a really lovely environment inside and out.

What an incredible experience. The level of food, presentation and education is first rate. We had never come across anything like this and it is a must do dinner/drinks if you're in Siem Reap. The teach you all you need to know about how each bug is prepared and give a lot of guidance on how to order depending on your level of comfort in trying new things. Some great signature cocktails to go with the unique menu of foods. The food photographs alone are worth the visit! We had the sampler platter that had a variety of different things to try. We had a go at all of it, but the tarantula feta cheese samosa was the standout as well as the extremely well rehearsed welcome/education pitch.
