About this experience
If something can easily connect you to a certain culture no matter where you are in the world, that is food. When you arrive to a new place, trying the most popular local dishes is a great intro to the local culture and, in many cases, even an ice-breaker to make conversation with people living there.
Learning to cook Khmer food is a great way to introduce your Cambodian experience to your friends.
