Depending what you expect, it is not a resort city, we wanted to visit a small city to see how real people live, we like the street food scene at Battambang. Phnom Sampov worth a visit.
You can read some of my restaurant reviews:
The night market at the water front in Battambang is something not to miss. Street food are much more interesting in variety than in Siem Reap. You can see real locals eating at the stands. It is located not far from the Central market, on the 2 banks of the Stung Sangker River.

Jaan Bai, located in the main streets in the centre of Battambang, not too far from the central market. A modern style café used seasonal produce from local farmers, neighbouring markets or even the chef’s garden. On their menu they stressed that no MSG were used. Menu is basically Khmer cooking with a few Thai dishes.

Nary Kitchen is a family owned restaurant operated by a native couple coming from Kampot. The wife is the chef and husband occupies the service. It is located in a quiet street that is not brightly lit at night, from a distance we thought the place was not open.
We ordered from what was proposed in the cooking lessons menu to test the food.
