A landmark restaurant for authentic Khmer cuisine in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap, the Malis is not only a culinary destination and a privileged place to discover the delicate and fragrant flavours of Cambodian cuisine, whose traditional recipes have been brought up by Master Chef Luu Meng.
Malis is also a place of smiles. Those famous Khmer smiles that add that little something extra to the welcome extended by the young team at this temple of Cambodian cuisine. During your visit, you’ll be greeted with plenty of smiles, reminding you that you’re not just discovering or rediscovering Khmer cuisine, but also that you’re most definitely welcome.
And the best part is, you’ll find those same smiles in the kitchen too! They are the ones who prepare the most amazing amoks and prahok fish dishes, m’chou prey and royal mak mee, and dozens of other incredible Khmer recipes.
In these times, which are not always easy, taking a gastronomic break in one of the capital’s best restaurants should be a special moment of relaxation, good humour and a smile!
The Malis restaurant burst onto the scene in Phnom Penh in 2004, born from the passion of its creators to bring Khmer cuisine back to its former glory. After the challenging period of 1975-1979, when traditional recipes were sadly lost, the Malis team was determined to bring them back. Malis is perfectly located in the heart of Phnom Penh, just a few steps from the Independence Monument. Clients can choose to dine al fresco in a tropical garden, surrounded by ponds, frangipani trees and a giant Buddha statue or can dine indoors in the comfort of air-conditioned rooms.
Le Malis is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It’s even possible to book private rooms for business lunches or other special events.
