Yearning for something a little different this weekend? Let Slow Sundays introduce you to Bopha Devi , a restaurant specialising in the light and fragrant cuisine of Cambodia, commonly known as Khmer food.
Cambodia’s Vietnamese and Thai neighbours are better known ‘round these parts but, once tried, Khmer food is a welcome addition to Melbourne’s multicultural menu. Khmer food blends Chinese and Indian flavours with a strong French influence, reflecting Cambodia’s 90 years as a French colonial outpost.
This Sunday, why not try the Bopha Devi Slow Sundays specials. First there’s Prahok Ktih – a traditional Cambodian dish of spicy minced chicken, coconut milk and prahok (fermented salted fish similar to anchovies), served with crunchy vegetables.
Then there’s the Char Kroeung comprising tofu cooked with toasted peanuts, lime leaves, lemongrass, turmeric, bean shoots, carrots and capsicum. Vegetarian fare that everyone will enjoy.
Either dish will go down quite nicely with a cold beer – choose from Singha or a Cascade Light, or the house shiraz or semillion-sauvignon blanc.
Slow Sundays at Docklands, every Sunday until 29 August, between 2pm and 6pm. Enjoy a small meal and a selected beer or wine for only $15. At participating restaurants. Conditions apply.

I can’t wait to try Bopha Devi Docklands! I am a regular in Yarraville and it’s one of the few things that will tempt my friends from accross the bay to head way out west. Absolutely delicious.
