Just moved back

Good content

My husband loves Khmer food! Above all asian foods.

Great interview. Good to hear Vuthy’s journey back home. Srok is not for everyone but it has a lot to offer. Num banjok should be the national dish for the country. Every Khmer, local and abroad, has had num banjok at least once in their lifetime. It’s the quintessential Khmer dish. Alas, Khmer decision makers have a tendency to ignore what is real and true and grasp whatever is popular for the day.

On Jesus Christ, Cambodia is a treasure trove of affordability, where the cost of living echoes the whispers of the good old early '90s in killafornia. It offers a beautiful opportunity to step back in time, allowing you to rewrite your financial story and reshape your relationship with money, giving you a precious second chance at life. So, you better play your cards right or you just like fumbling and play victimize.

waiting to watch his food transaction 🙏🙏🙏

He looks like Jon from Jon and Kate plus eight

I agrees. we dont horn or beep o other peple. whereas in Australia in particular.

I agreed. trust the local, as cambodian are very kind and honest ❤❤❤❤❤

I came to the States in 1980, I can visit srok Khmer but not live longer than maybe a month

សូមសរសើរដែលត្រលប់មកកម្ពុជាវិញ។ Welcome you back home, Cambodia.❤

Why do it say khmer but you say cumeye ?? Cumeye is not a word !!

Love this brother❤❤❤🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭

Thanks for sharing your story, Mr. Savuthy. Lump in my throat, when you mention the worry the feeling your dad had

Prices are more expensive than Thailand ? what ! . That is not supposed to be in my point of view

Whenever I go to Cambodia, I avoid PP like the plague because there are too many Vietnamese and Chinese there.

I’ll visit you when I do go to Cambodia and actually I was thinking of moving back there it’s a plan and I am hoping my wife and adult children see it and want to move there as well

I truly understand his dad's feelings 😊 28:57 You can always go back to the States any time. Can you ?😊 May i ask what is his restaurant's name and where please.

He's Khmer American but can't pronounce Phnom Penh right. 😂 Joking aside. Glad he likes it there. Plan to retire there soon also.

What is the name of his restaurant and where is located ?

Wow it's too amazing......to hear the positive experiences you have in Cambodia. We want to go and visit you brother. From Long Beach, California.

I have a lot of great memories in that restaurant. Great food and friends. Can't wait to see you again bro. I have never felt unsafe in phnom penh, walking around at night i feel safer there than here in California.

I so agree. We don’t eat amok.

Amok is for elite family...Royalty

When you get sick, you will realize that Cambodia is not a place to stay unless you are financially healthy or abundant.

Combodia is not well developed country that why people are free, not stress cux they got nothing to stress about look hawaii it once was a nice country with love now its different ruined. Only if they developed it themselves like mexico did by trade to the USA, Canada and china. Yeah some mexican couldn't wait so they crossed the border but now they see mexico winning alot are returning back in numbers even some born american mexican.

Live Cambodia if you healthy you are okay but if you not that a problem. You paid 100% from your pocket

I am Cambodian and I said wtf is amok lmao

I totally agree with him on the food promotion.

You are crazy man, I would never move back to that stupid country.

you can sale every thing and go to live in cambodia but when you return with emty hand crazy idea .

As a Cambodian American who was also a Khmer Rouge survivor, I can understand people emigrating to seek better lives abroad. However, a lot of Khmer people just want to get out because they can't stand being Khmer and being around other Khmer people. Like your guest I moved back to Cambodia several years ago and have no plans to go back to America. I'll check out the restaurant soon and hope to meet Savuthy.

Amok is a true Khmer dish, but he’s partially right-it’s not as common as something like Korko. Amok feels more like a dish for the elites; not every family cook knows how to make it, while most can prepare Korko. The reason Korko isn’t chosen as the national dish might be due to a few factors. One of them could be its complexity as an international dish-some foreigners might experience stomach upset because of the variety of vegetables and spices involved. By the way, street food in Cambodia is much more up to the standard nowadays as people become better financially and they start caring more about what they eat.

I thought Khmer food in Cambodia was going to be really good when i went their turns out Khmer food in Cali was wayyyyy better.

Im a long beach cambodian i never had amok or a family member cook it as well.

Very good episode. He’s very well spoken. Hope to visit his restaurant some day

One day I will move to Khmer and cook too.

He got the point and I love it.

Didn’t know Khmer lived in cashmere 😂!

amok is Khmer dish popular in Siem Reap.

I traveled to Thailand then visited Cambodia for two weeks, then vietnam for a week. These countries are horrible.

My mom told me that Amok is made for to serve only for royalty. Not for commoner. Please educate the guy!!

Excellent video. Congratulations to Savuthy for having the courage to move to Srok Khmer and started a successful business. Your father is a smart man by forcing you to learn Khmer. When I was growing up my mother forced me to learn Khmer also. Although I’m not that fluent in Khmer, I can still appreciate the culture and tradition. Thanks for sharing your story. Where is your restaurant located? I will be in Phnom Penh in a couple of weeks. I would block to visit your restaurant.

More of this type of interviews, please and I'm considering Cambodia as my next long term stay.

❤❤❤❤❤❤

I love Cambodia it’s a gems country full of natural resources , minerals , bountiful green forestry . People are beautiful , lovely , loyal , charitable . Cambodia were form since Khmer Empire Civilization it’s a heavily influencial Civilization Khmer Empire occupied half of SEA territorials . But due to its imminent threats from neighboring people Khmer Empire outlying provinces were raids and lost on a massive scales that cause the downfall of Khmer Empire Civilization. Then Modern time following the atrocities of Genocides(1975-1979) Genocides cause by political motives that involved with neighboring people within Cambodia country . Killing Millions of great Khmers population !

I hope everyone khmer american have the same mindset as him.

Your best interview yet, a remarkable ly

If you can make the same amount of money there like in the states, that would be great ! Cambodia is not that cheap and healthcare is not good. That’s why rich Cambodian usually go abroad for serious medical issues. There are good and bad people everywhere. There are plenty of young Cambodian girls marry very old men from the states for money and opportunities to come to the states etc
