I've been here more than once. The coconut bubble tea is delicious. I don't remember straying away from the noodle dishes here as they don't seem to have many other vegetarian choices in other areas. It's cheap food with large servings. Brought my family here and everyone enjoyed their food. At one point, we ordered the green papaya salad, which was extremely spicy. Waay to spicy for me and my boyfriend (granted I don't have an iron tongue). This may be a place people pass by to go somewhere more aestetically pleasing, but once you get past that, it's a good place to eat.

My girlfriend, who is Cambodian, and I went to Cheng Heng today after a horrible experience with Village Wok in Minneapolis and the moment the food was put in front of me, I knew it was going to be good. I had the #52, which is in the "new item" section of the menu and it was delicious. The green peppers were crunchy and perfectly cooked, as were the onions -- and the chicken was wonderful. The subtle sweet sauce in this dish is what convinced me. Eaten with chopsticks. My girlfriend choose the #15 which featured Chow Fun-like noodles (she says it's spoken like Mee-gah-ton noodles) but she enjoyed it very much. I would suggest getting a soda dispenser as opposed to using normal 12oz soda cans because not only does it taste better when dining out in my opinion, but it's also cheaper for the store itself. This was my first experience with Cheng Heng and it won't be my last.

Although this is a modest restaurant in the middle of frogtown this is one of my favorite places in the entire twin cities. I frequent this place at least once a month if not more sometimes. The spring rolls are excellent as well as the cream puffs, try them both. I try something different each time I go. They have excellent soups. I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu. This is a true Cambodian restaurant.

What to Drink:
Don't miss the young coconut--a whole coconut, with the bottom squared off. The top is cut to make a little lid, a straw is inserted and voila. You'll think you're on the Love Boat.
