Swensen's ice-cream is quite good and it is a popular choice in Siem Reap especially since the branch is near the Old Market area.
There are a lot of flavors to choose from, as well as milkshakes and sundaes and banana splits. It is really hard to choose since everything on the menu sounds delicious. The ice cream parlor is also brightly lit and with colors pleasing to the eyes.
Based on my Google search, Swensen's is originally a U.S. brand but is now owned by a Canadian food company. It has many branches in Asia that includes the Philippines although the ones in Manila closed already.
Aside from ice-cream, there's also ice-cream cake available at Swensen's. So Tempting to get one! Hopefully next time we visit Siem Reap I'll be able to try the ice-cream cake. :D
I was about to order the usual two scoops but noticed that they are serving Mango Sticky Rice Ice-Cream for a limited run. I like that!
Here's the Mango Sticky Rice Ice-Cream that I ordered. It has two scoops of mango ice-cream on-top-of green sticky rice, with some cream, scoconut strips, nuts, and caramel sauce. And if you notice the green seed-like thingy- that's a small "mango" candy. Yum! Btw, it comes with sweetened milk that you pour on the sticky rice. Think "suman."
