Jaan Bai

Street 2 in next to Psar Nat, Krong Battambang, Cambodia

Enjoy world-class cuisine for a good cause at the delicious, inviting Jaan Bai. This popular outpost, a Battambang lure for food-minded travelers, raises funds to support the Cambodian Children’s Trust and the kitchen and dining provide hands-on vocational training for local youth. The restaurant’s name translates to “rice bowl” in Khmer, but the menu ventures far beyond rice, showcasing authentic Thai, Cambodian, and Vietnamese staples, in small, shareable servings. The venture is the brainchild of several chefs and restaurateurs, including David Thompson of Bangkok‘s famous Ngam.
