The classic meal is a selection of Mekong delta dishes, with a fish in clay pot, pumpkin flower fritters and more, all cooked with local produce.

The degustation meal takes you one step further from very classic dishes of the region, with a whiff of fusion, tuned to marry tastes, with pork au caramel, shrimp in mango sauce and more delicacies. You may like to get some wine!

A blessing ceremony, a tradition of Khmer Theravada Buddhism, involving chants, fruits as ceremony offering and tea. It is also an occasion to dialogue with the monks. Personal offerings at the guests' discretion.
