Über diesen Tip
Yang Pov Riverside is a riverside pub where a house band plays old-school Khmer songs, and the weekly gig guide lists it on most nights. The room gets lively around 9 or 10pm, so come earlier for a better seat. Reviewers say staff and performers sometimes teach traditional dances, so be ready to join in. Opening hours are unclear, so check before heading out.
