About Us
Our Story & Mission
Founded by a team of Cambodian culinary enthusiasts in the heart of Phnom Penh, TasteBridge Phnom Penh was born from a shared vision: to preserve and celebrate the vibrant traditions of Khmer cuisine. Inspired by the markets, villages, and food memories of Cambodia, our founders set out to create a welcoming hub where learners of all ages can discover new skills, flavors, and friendships. Every ingredient we use and every story we share reflects our commitment to authenticity, community, and culinary joy.
