It was only 9:30 A.M. when we finished touring around Angkor Wat complex, and yet it already felt like we've went through the whole day. Then I realized that this is because we started the day at 4 in the morning. So after four hours of standing and walking with only a few winks of sleep, I was thankful that we were guided to an eatery just outside the complex, where I ordered a cup of White Coffee and a plate of Flat Fried Rice Noodle Soup with Beef and Vegetables off their menu. I thought it would be soothing to warm my stomach with a soup after a long walk.
The white coffee was too sweet for my taste, and then I was surprised to see my "noodle soup" served to me without the, uhm, soup. In front of me was a mixture of an inch-wide flat noodles, beef, vegetables and a little bit of sauce. I am always passive when it comes to customer service that it's next to impossible that I would ever call out a server to complain, much more when on a foreign land. So I thought, whatever, I'm still going to eat it anyway, haha! And my my, was it the tastiest, most delicious pancit noodles that ever landed on my mouth! It was unbelievably good, for the way it looked so simple. And also unbelievable that I don't have any photo of it, hehehe.
Outside the eatery was this beautiful view of tall trees firmly standing on lush green grass, with a row of tuk-tuks waiting on the side. It looked and felt peaceful as I breathed in the last straw of cold morning breeze.
Afterwards, Bayon Temple :)
