The short answer
Vitking House: what visitors should know first
A cheap, plain vegetarian meal for travellers who do not mind imitation meat. The guide calls it all-vegetarian, but egg is unconfirmed, so it carries no strict tag; confirm which branch and hours first.

Why it matters
Why Vitking House is worth your time
Khmer cooking is hard for vegetarians because fish sauce and prahok are in so much of it. A kitchen that rebuilds Khmer dishes on soy gives families a way to taste the style without those ingredients, at a price that is hard to beat.
It is a plain neighbourhood place, not a showpiece, and the sources are a single directory. Go for the practical reasons, ask questions about egg and seasoning, and do not expect refined cooking.

How to experience it
A vegetarian guide lists Vitking House 1 at 370 Street 163 as an all-vegetarian restaurant serving Khmer food with soy or other meat substitutes, with most dishes at two to four US dollars. It lists a third branch, Vitking House 3, at 315 Street 430 with the same menu, near Russian Market.
The food is Khmer in style but built on substitutes, which is a plus for vegetarians who want to avoid meat contact and a minus for anyone who dislikes soy proteins. We did not find a menu, so ask the staff to explain each dish and whether it contains egg, fish sauce or shrimp paste.
Because there are several branches, confirm which one you are heading to, and check opening hours on a current listing.
