Topaz’s ‘Echoes of the Mekong’ menu offers a unique and refined culinary journey, perfectly combining the rich traditional flavours of Cambodia with the finesse of French gastronomy.
This thoughtful reinterpretation of iconic Khmer ingredients, such as prahok, invites guests to discover familiar flavours in a refined and surprising way. For those seeking a culinary experience that honours heritage while embracing innovation, Topaz stands out for its respectful and refined cultural fusion cuisine.
The ‘Echoes of the Mekong’ menu is more than just a fusion of two cuisines; it pays homage to Cambodian culinary roots through the prism of French cuisine. This approach allows guests to rediscover the soul of Khmer ingredients with a refined touch, creating dishes that inspire both pleasure and wonder. Unlike classic fusion menus, Topaz’s offering is deeply rooted in tradition, yet presented with modern elegance, for a thoughtful and enriching experience.
The ‘Echoes of the Mekong’ menu offers surprising compositions that mark a new stage in local gastronomic innovation. Guests can discover some truly amazing dishes with a particularly generous selection. We were particularly impressed by the fresh sea bass dressed in a delicate vinaigrette with Cambodian fermentation notes and garnished with Sturia caviar, a perfect example of freshness delicately combined with the very Cambodian flavour of prahok.
We would also like to mention the sumptuous slow-cooked pork shoulder, glazed with a Cambodian honey and umami reduction and served with Dauphine potatoes, a dish that is 200% successful.
Not to be forgotten is the exotic dessert, a sweet mango mousse with passion fruit and a signature salted ice cream, an elegant nod to traditional Cambodian depth. All accompanied by the finest wines from the Topaz cellar, undoubtedly one of the best in the capital.
