The Khéma Raclette Party is back, giving you and your friends and family the chance to enjoy an unlimited, two-hour Free Flow of Raclette Cheese, from the experts at Frères Marchand, together with baby potatoes and Khéma Cold Cuts, as well as Free-Flow red and white house wine and buffet-style dishes alongside too.
It had to happen one day of course. Being one of Phnom Penh’s and Siem Reap’s favourite cheese dealers, it was only a matter of time before we decided to take the leap to making our own. And so, we are delighted to introduce you to Le Rousseau,
The Portuguese were the first Europeans to reach Asia by sea, indeed the first Europeans to set foot in Cambodia, so it is surprising that more is not known about the depth and range of their culinary impact on the region. If you go to almost any market in Phnom Penh, you will pass the evidence for it every day in the deliciously yellow, dense and creamy egg custard tarts wrapped in a light puff pastry crust you’ll eventually find as you meander along. And we love them so much, we’ve decided to start creating our own at Khéma, where our hardworking bakers have truly perfected them.
It was only a few weeks — it felt like more — but we certainly missed you, which is why we’ve gone all out to give you even more reasons to drop by Khéma Angkor for one of our sinfully good breakfasts, abundant lunches, night-time specials or just a simple, but indulgent, afternoon tea. And with Father’s Day on the horizon, we’ve also added a couple of extra-special offers into the mix, which you really aren’t going to want to miss.
At Khéma, we have wrapped up the traditions and knowledge that come from 100s of years of practice to provide you with some of the finest charcuterie available in Cambodia, and we prepare much of it in our own kitchens.
The story of cheese is almost as old as the story of human civilisation itself. Shards of ceramic pots carrying milk fats found in Anatolia (modern-day Turkey) and the Levant area of the Fertile Crescent and dating back to approximately 6500 BCE have been established as the earliest evidence of cheesemaking, and other finds in Eastern Europe suggest an even more ancient heritage.
This is a call-out to all those in Cambodia with the gift of a sweet tooth, because we have a pastry (or is it a cake?) that is guaranteed to deliver you into a whole new realm of Heaven. The Kouign-Amann (pronounced kween ah-mahn) is not designed for daintiness, or dieting. With equal portions butter and sugar, it has a crispy, caramelised golden shell wrapped around a dense, meltingly soft interior and is designed purely for deliciousness.
While Easter’s date changes from year to year, it is a celebration incontrovertibly rooted in springtime, and whichever way you plan to celebrate (or not) this year, we hope you’ll take a moment to check in with Khéma to sample our gourmet range of Chocolate Easter Eggs.
“We are Women. We are strong. We don’t give up when problems happen. We will always find a good solution for those problems.”
This is the powerful message for International Women’s Day from the Khéma team. We spoke to four of our hard-working chefs from our outlets at Khéma Pasteur, Khéma La Poste and Khéma Angkor, and while their background and experiences may differ, they are united in a belief that hard work and dedication to the task are the route to self-empowerment and the building of dreams.
