For a certain price, diners can handpick veggies, fruits, sidings, and condiments to create their own meal. Their menu of healthy wraps and salads are appropriately named after a few well-known countries represented by their local ingredients such as “Phnom Penh” for crispy noodles, “Venice” for parmesan cheese, and other healthy choices.

Vego Salad bar is a small and cosy space at Street 51 (Pasteur), BKK 1, Chamkar Mon District, just opposite Wat Lanka. You can even order your choice salad and beverage online and wait for your food to be delivered right at your doorstep in an hour.

Just 1.5 kilometers from YK Art House is a lovely garden cafe and bar called Farm to Table. They offer some of the freshest seasonal produce in Phnom Penh by partnering with farmers and cooperatives in Cambodia that support local organic farming.

Although they do service carnivores, several vegetarian dishes stand out on the Farm to Table menu. Check out their cauliflower kung pao, vegetarian pho (citrus broth with rice noodles and garden veggies) and coconut-cashew vegan cheesecake.  

Farm to Table is also kid-friendly, featuring a nature-themed play area with chickens, a tractor, fruit trees, tropical fish and more. It also has a bar which opens late and serves a solid assortment of imported wines in a very relaxing indoor/outdoor patio style garden.

This is also known as a go-to place for vegetarians on a budget as they serve dishes for as low as $1.
