My daughter is in Cambodia for the summer working on her master's project.    I asked her if there was good bread in Cambodia.   I guess I was expecting some cool and unknown to me Asian varieties.   She surprised me by saying that there was a lot of very good very cheap French bread.   I asked her to send me some pictures to post on this site.   Here is what she sent:

From the looks of it, I think she's right about the quality.   Now I have to go back to David Snyder's post on shaping and see how to recreate the fabulous shapes of these batards.   I also like the cross scoring on the last one.    Any ideas about what these might be?  -Varda
