Phnom Penh,CAMBODIA

A new dining and mixology capital emerges in this vibrant city that harbours a deep-rooted cultural heritage.

Kinin

An eclectic restaurant-cum-bar in the bustling neighbourhood of Toul Tom Poung, Kinin's laid-back ambience belies its excellent reputation in Phnom Penh's dining scene. Be sure to try the signature honey-glazed duck breast as well as the Kampot Lok Lak, a flavoursome dish of stir-fried beef coated in a glossy sauce infused with the iconic Cambodian Kampot pepper. Also an antique shop, botanical nursery and ceramic store all at once, this is arguably the best spot in town to enjoy a refreshing cocktail against the lush greenery.

Mawsim Distillery and Concept Bar

Distillery by day and tasting bar by night, Mawsim is a hidden gem; it's tucked away on the second floor of an unassuming industrial building that you wouldn't look twice at. Ryuji Nukata, the amiable owner-bartender, invites guests to sample a curated range of libations infused with a local twist, topped with house-made tonic and orange syrup. If you're lucky, he'll even give you a distillery tour showcasing the craftsmanship behind the award-winning small-batch gin label.
