In August 2008 I stopped in Kompong Thom for 2 days to see Sambor Prei Kuk. I was surprised to find The American Restaurant on the side street next to the Arunras Hotel in Kompong Thom town center.

The American had homemade pizza and ice cream. Hardly what I would expect in the center of Cambodia. The quality was very good. They also have hamburgers and Khmer specialties. Its on the side street next to the Arunras Hotel displaying a big red sign.
I found Sambor Prei Kuk much more interesting than Angkor Wat. The place is a complex of 100 pre Angorian temples lost in a forest. It had one of those lost in time feelings. Its very easy to rent a motto with driver in KT for $4 round trip. I would definitely recommend a stop in KT for a day or two.
