         In addition to the Banteay Chhmar Community Based Tourism
         temple tour, homestays and restaurant, the organization is also
         promoting the preservation of a delectable treat, Dalambok,
         or Pounded Flat Rice. The preparation process can be quite
         arduous after dry-frying the rice in a wok as usually two women
         pound and pound the rice flat before it’s served or possibly
         mixed with coconut and banana. Dalambok is the special
         treat served on Bon Om Touk, the Cambodian water festival
                                                th
         celebrated on the full moon of the 12  lunar month.
