There is always light to shed on every meal you had, even if you’re on a romantic-candle-light dinner you still need light. But here, you won’t get to see what your food looks like. Dine in the Dark opened in 2013 expanding from Bangkok and is inspired by many dark restaurants in the world.

Situated in the downtown of Phnom Penh, Dine in the Dark requires their customers to keep their phones outside the dining place. They then will be guided by a group of “Guide” who are students from the School for Blind and Deaf of Krusar Tmey to their table. In an 18$ 3-meal-course, you can have 3 types of cuisine that are Khmer, Western, and Vegetarian.

Not only dining in the dark is a new experience, it is also in a purpose to raise awareness of blind people to the public as well as helping them with employment and empowering. Moreover, it is also believed that when you lost one sense, you’ll get better at another. Meaning when you cannot see the food, your taste bud will work better in identifying and tasting the food.
