Last week I went to the Crab Market with my classmates and my teachers to make a report about crab market.
My teacher divided the students into different groups. Some had to collect informations, other had to make interviews. There were also cameramen and women, video editors, blogger editors.
We are SELA and THYDA, students from 2nd Year at Don Bosco School Kep. Our team had to contact restaurants to collect information and to make an appointment for an interview. We went to SO KHEANG restaurant, located next to the crab market. The restaurant owner is a woman. Her name is So Kheang like her restaurant.
Last week we asked her some questions about her restaurant history. She told us that before she had this restaurant, she used to sell crab on the beach for 20 years. So, she is a crab expert.
5 years ago, she decided to open a restaurant. She declared that customers’ favorite meal is fried crab with green pepper. She added that especially foreigners appreciate this crab.
All the crab she sold was brought by fishermen. She explained, that in the morning fishermen bring crab from the sea to the beach. Then, she buys it from them. She also need to buy a key ingredient : green pepper. She buys it from Kampot province, which about 24 km from Kep.
In her restaurant she has a lot of customers especially during weekends and holidays. There are different varieties of crabs. They all taste differently. For example, crabs form number 1 category cost 45000 riel (around 11 dollars), number 2 cost 35000 riel (around 8,5 dollars) ,simple crabs cost 25000 riel (around 6$) and the cheapest crab costs under 20000 riel (under 5$) .
Next week we will go there to interview her again. She will show us how to cook fried crab with green pepper.
After that, we tool some group photos at the market.
