Our newest tasting Journey is a vibrant tribute to Svay Rieng, a southeastern province of Cambodia known for its quiet rice paddies, abundant fruit trees, and deep-rooted culinary traditions. Centered around the beloved mango “svai” in Khmer — this menu explores the flavors of the countryside through seasonal produce, freshwater ingredients, and the spirit of home-cooked meals passed down through generations. Each course is a story of place, memory, and the soulful connection between food, land, and family. Join us for a journey to Mango Town.
