L’histoire CafĂ© - DEFUNCT
 |
A way to relive the reign of the Khmer Rouge in culinary form. The menu consists of gruel-like dishes as well as a fancy egg dessert made for the anniversary of the Khmer Rouge’s rise, and a tea made for Khmer officers. The staff wears period garb of black ‘pajamas’ and checkered scarves too keep you in the mood.
The restaurant is across from the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum, which is where thousands of Cambodians were tortured and/or killed.
The restaurant was closed 1 October 2005 because it had no license. Business was also a little slow, and I hear the government is not very thrilled about this place. The owner has stated that he will get a license and reopen, but we shall see.
