Olive Cuisine de Saison
Run by a French expat, Olive Cuisine de Saison is an upscale restaurant that serves French and Mediterranean fare. Though it’s located not far from the generic eateries on Pub Street, Olive's tasteful, serene aesthetic makes it feel a world apart. The menu features an array of French, Mediterranean and Khmer dishes, all carefully prepared and beautifully plated. A standout is the seafood pasta: spaghetti with prawns, squid and fish in a creamy sauce of tomatoes and crab brightened with a topping of fresh arugula.

Dakida
Siem Reap has a large Korean population and a plethora of Korean restaurants. Dakida’s menu is slightly different from the others, because it specializes in bar foods -- like crispy fried chicken balls, ramen, and breaded, deep-fried prawns -- that go well with Korean beer and soju. The standout item on their menu is the $7 barbecue pork set, an incredible value, featuring unlimited servings of pork grilled at your table, kimchi tofu soup, steamed egg and an array of the delicious Korean side dishes called banchan.

Mie Cafe
Siv Pola is one of Cambodia's best young up-and-coming chefs. He grew up in a small village outside of Siem Reap, where his mother inspired his love of cooking. Later, he trained abroad, landing in Switzerland and working at Michelin-starred Domaine de Châteauvieux before coming back to Cambodia to open his own restaurant, Mie Cafe. A stand-out dish on the menu is a cross between a French beef tartare and Cambodian laab, served very rare and spiced with lemongrass, galangal, kaffir lime and fresh chili. Topped with a delicate wakame salad and violet butterfly pea flowers, the dish is a perfect example of how Siv's best creations effortlessly meld east and west.

Cuisine Wat Damnak
Recently declared one of the 50 best restaurants in Asia, Cuisine Wat Damnak is gaining international acclaim for its unique take on Cambodian food. The French chef, Joannes Riviere, uses only local ingredients: freshwater fish from the Tonle Sap lake, foraged Cambodian herbs, earthy wild mushrooms, butterfly pea shoots grown in his own garden. Riviere plays with the traditional flavors in Khmer cuisine and combines them in ways that are entirely his own. He offers two five- or six-course menus that change weekly, but local freshwater fish, a staple of the Cambodian diet, always features.

Mariscos German Taco Truck
Long before food trucks became a trend, taco trucks like Mariscos German were serving up delicious Mexican food in San Diego. There are many that exist, almost all starting their name with "Mariscos," but Mariscos German is arguably the best. The truck is parked faithfully next to the same liquor store every day and there's no need to hunt them down or follow them on social media to figure out where they will be next. Nearly everything on the menu is affordable and tasty. if you're a seafood lover, definitely go for the Tostada Loca, which seems to contain just about every seafood imaginable. Make sure not to pass up on the complimentary consomme, a concentrated and hearty broth, while you wait for your food.

Two for the Road
Two for the Road was recently named the No. 2 food truck in the country, according to The Daily Meal. Specializing in classic American comfort food, this truck prides itself in using quality ingredients and giving you your money's worth. Make sure to check out their popular Cap ‘N’ Crunch Crab Cakes, which pack a ton of flavor. The burgers and lobster rolls are equally worthy.

Star of Greece
The famous and popular Star of Greece sits on the South Australian coastline overlooking the beautiful and pristine Port Willunga Beach. The food served here is fresh where they utilise seasonal produce accompanied with the loveliest of presentation on every plate. A highlight from their lunch menu was the seared deep sea scallops, potato, yolk puree, rocket and brown butter. A trio of plump and juicy scallops with a slight sear on the outside with yellow potato sphere balls cooked just right, still soft yet firm enough to hold its shape and not fall apart once a fork and knife touched it. Dots of yolk puree, a small drizzle of brown butter and baby rocket leaves completed the pretty looking dish. As the food is seasonal, the dishes are different almost every time, but rest assured, everything is fantastic and flavorful! Drive out of town for a beautiful meal paired with a stunning view that is postcard worthy.

Wood Shop BBQ
Two guys out of the South got together over some beers one day and decided to do something about the desperate barbecue situation in Seattle. The result is smoke-ring laden, flavor-heavy, and worth running out and finding their truck right now. The menu is small, concise, and filled only with smoked-meats--and that's all that you'll need.

Don Lucho's Food Cart
It's nothing but a cart that gets dragged into breweries and outside bottle shops, but it's the place to find one of the city's best sandwiches. Lomo saltado is a classic Peruvian steak dish, but this truck reimagines it. The whole hot mess is held together on soft bread, which is happy to absorb the flavor dripping from the freshly-grilled meat. Red onions and tomatoes brighten things up, but the real heat comes from your choice of sauces: mild aji amarillo or the fiery rocoto.

Grater Grilled Cheese Truck
This popular food truck, which also recently opened two storefronts, creates some of the best grilled cheese sandwiches you've ever tasted. Not to be missed is the Puerto Nuevo Style Lobster. This sandwich consists of a five cheese blend, chunks of butter fried lobster, snow crab and their signature Sierra Nevada pale ale chipotle aioli. The taste is worth every single calorie.
