IDA à Phnom Penh

IDA is a drinks spot in Phnom Penh that regulars come back to. The pull here is consistency more than novelty, which is exactly what you want when you are booking somewhere you have not tried. ## On the menu You will find french here. Prices are reasonable for the area. Come for a drink first and decide about food once you have a table; the kitchen keeps sensible hours around the bar. ## Around here Phnom Penh is compact enough that you can pair this with a museum, a market or the riverfront in the same afternoon. ## How to get there Getting here is straightforward by tuk-tuk or a ride-hailing app; give the driver the name and the area rather than a street number, which is how most people navigate in Cambodia. Fares for a ride like this are low by most standards, and agreeing the price or using the app rate up front avoids the usual haggle at tourist-heavy spots. ## Before you go It is open Monday to Saturday. Lunchtime and early evening are the safe windows; later in the night some places wind the kitchen down before the listed closing time. A solid option to have in your back pocket.
