"One of just a handful of Cambodian food spots in the East Bay, Battambang offers proof that Chinatown isn’t just about the Chinese food — and hasn’t been since this family-run restaurant first arrived in the neighborhood in the early ‘90s. The menu has a number of Thai standards too, but you’ll serve yourself well if you stick to the Cambodian dishes: the smoky soft-cooked eggplant and the amok trei — catfish steamed inside a banana leaf with lemongrass curry." - Luke Tsai
