It's not the best but I like the owner's effort to preserve the Cambodian culture. The owner tries to integrate the sense of culture into the shop's environment. Though it's not so well integrated and designed, but I do appreciate the effort and his/her love toward all materials displayed here. From outside, it doesn't look much like a coffee shop but it doesn't matter as long as you can grab a coffee inside. If you're around, I recommend you to check out and try a coffee here, at least to see that we have people who have a deep love toward our culture and try their best to preserve it. My 5 stars are my appreciation for the owner's effort.
