📍Siem Reap, Cambodia

Tucked down a quiet dirt road just outside Siem Reap, Lum Orng is the kind of hidden gem you only hear about from someone who has actually been. The setting is calm, surrounded by fields and absolutely worth the journey from town.

Lum Orng is Cambodia’s first farm to table restaurant, led by chef and owner Sothea Seng.

Here he cooks what he calls New Mekong Cuisine, dishes rooted in Cambodian heritage but shaped by the flavours, plants and food traditions shared across the Mekong region. The menu changes constantly, guided by produce from his own farm across the road, nearby markets and local growers.

In Khmer, Lum Orng means pollen, the grain that carries life from one place to another. It symbolises renewal, seasonality and the passing of knowledge from one generation to the next.

What you taste here is not just flavour. It is the land, the seasons and the hands that tended it. Lum Orng shows how food can keep tradition alive and reminds us that food is culture.

In this week’s What’s Hot & What’s Not, meet Annie.

🔥 What’s Hot

Immersive travel that lets us experience local life, food that reflects a place's history and culture, travel that teaches us new things and doesn't just look good on Instagram, slow travel.

❄️ What’s Not

Cafes or restaurants that create instagrammable spaces and food but tastes like crap! Make it make sense.
