Ankhor wat is a nice place to go to....it's rather touristy tho. For me...when i go to a country, i leave my own cultures,food, loves and hates behind and become as close to being "one of them" as i can. Same as here....i don't eat farang food and haven't even bought a loaf of bread for months....now i'm living totally thai.
Theres many nice temples there. In phom penh theres toul sleng and the killing fields museums. Toul sleng is REAL and very humbling.
Battambang....is great....not very touristy. Not a great lot to do there if you don't have family to be with. Has a couple good temples etc.

food.... My fav is char gidim barang kineer saik droob -fried onion with pork
or bobor mon...... basically khao tom gai but a lot nicer
