C’est vrai?
I’d seen the ad in the tourist guide, but didn’t quite believe it at first.
Now, from Reuters: “Pol Pot menu too much to swallow in Cambodia” http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/BKK6585.htm
I’m sure much discussion will follow from Phnom Penhois and foreigners. The Documentation Center of Cambodia and historians will have some strong criticisms. And the Ministry of Tourism is checking it out.
I’m not going to dwell on this; there are plenty of farmers in the countryside who are not eating much better than the food at ‘L’Histoire’. They’re just not paying $6 a plate. http://tinyurl.com/e2tgh
