Delectable French-inspired delicatessen restaurant which purveys an unpretentious, casual dining experience in the heart of Phnom Penh City.
Another proud product of Cambodia’s finest hospitality group, Thalias, Khema La Poste takes over a colonial building which dates back to the 1890s. The quaint neighborhood exudes understated elegance yet adjacent to the main vivacious street and close proximity to Tonle Sap river. Interior-wise, brick walls are left unfinished intentionally with marble tables and hardwood flooring, the perfect interpretation of a modern-day French cafe. The space is cozy with an abundance of natural light penetrating through the massive windows, shows a great deal when it comes to service and undivided attention to the guest and food.
The menu advertises heavily on traditional and modern-day European gourmet, with the insertion of a few Khmer food items such as the famous Fish Amok, the Cambodian national dish. Among the dish that stands out is Steak-Frites Café de Paris. Tender beef slices are simmered on Khema’s special Café de Paris butter-liver sauce accompanied with golden crisp house-made French fries. The steak is robust in flavor and glides gracefully down one’s appetite, truly divine.
To end the meal on high, a selection of homemade desserts are daintily showcased at the counter alongside fresh bakes, imported cheeses, cured meats and deli items. While the dining ambiance is top-notch, Khema introduces takeout option for special occasions or those who prefer grab-and-go. The imported produce is predominantly from France and has been carefully hand-picked by the culinary experts.
Wine connoisseur will find Khema’s listing exciting and to us at SavourBlackBookAsia, one of the best wine spot in the capital. Trained Sommelier are serviceable on site to enlighten one on the optimum wine pairing for the plates and also on how to pick up a bottle or two.

Whether it’s a day or night occasion, the menu and service do not fail to impress.
