• Cambodian • West Melbourne
Hi my name’s Neri!Proud owner of Angkor Café & Restaurant. A modern Cambodian eatery located on Spencer Street in West Melbourne! Be honest with me here. When you think of Asian cuisine… What pops up in your mind?Chinese? - Vietnamese? - Thai? Cambodian is rarely in that convo, but let me try change that- You seeI was born and raised in Cambodia. Post-war, but the one thing that kept us going… was grandma’s cooking. The unique flavours and special sauces. The tantalising spices of the curries. The fish amok’s and the prahok’s. It was a bonding experience for the family and has stuck with me ever since. When I was a young adult I had the dream of moving to Australia. ‎After years of being here I realised, that the food that I grew up with, Everything I had experienced up to that point, was not readily available in Australia. So Angkor Café & Restaurant was born at the differences in quality & fresh ingredients used introducing Cambodian cuisine to Melbournians just like yourself.
