Cambodia's Cuisine Recognized, Gaining Popularity

With the growing number of tourists choosing Cambodia as their holiday destination, the cuisine of the country is gaining popularity as well. The pan-Asian broadcaster Channel News Asia recognizes the resurrection of traditional cooking in the Kingdom by featuring the Cambodia Cooking Class in its ‘Taste Matters' programme on July 11, 2008.

In the tv-show, presenter Marc Dass explores the psyche of Phnom Penh, as he learns to cook its signature dish, Fish Amok. Cooking class chef Heng demonstrates how to prepare this fish curry, dry steamed in a cup of banana leaves. There is a lot of time involved in creating Fish Amok, and the result is a superb dish.

As more
and more people discover, Khmer food has its own distinct character in a subtle balance of flavours. The Cambodia Cooking Class attracts a steadily increasing number of students. Food is at the heart of every culture, so taking part in the cooking classes gives tourists a unique inside into Cambodia and its people.

Channel News Asia's programme ‘Taste Matters' features Cambodian cuisine on Friday July 11th at 6:30pm Cambodian time (11.30am CST/GMT). The program is repeated the following Monday July 14th at 09:30am and Tuesday July 15th at 1:30pm (Cambodian times).

About Cambodia Cooking Class & frizz restaurant
The frizz restaurant (www.frizz-restaurant.com) was established in Phnom Penh five years ago to bring traditional and tasty Khmer cuisine to the increasing number of tourists visiting Cambodia. As more people discovered the beautiful flavours of Khmer food, the restaurant in 2005 started the first cookery class for tourists and expats in Phnom Penh, the Cambodia Cooking Class (www.cambodia-cooking-class.com).
