Khmer Express

We've been going to Khmer Express for a few years & were very happy to see that they finally reopened.
They now take credit cards which is very convenient.
The staff is as usual very friendly.
However, since the change in owners, the taste on most dishes we used to order is not as good. The fried chicken pieces are smaller, use less batter, & less seasoning than before.
The fried rice had almost no seasoning.
The imperial rolls are now with chicken & the texture is mushy instead.
The ke tirv phnom penh is almost as good as before - but the soup lacks the distinct old school Khmer Express flavor.
& lastly the prices have gone up significantly since before the reopening; this combined with the less pleasing food makes us more reticent to come back as often as we did.
We're going to probably try it again in a few months once they get their footing; as they just reopened.

Little gem in Laval!! Kind staff, affordable prices & amazing food. You can't go wrong with the Loc Lac, fried rice, soups, spring rolls, chicken wings... Go try!

***Update since new owner***
Don't expect the same culinary experience. They are just not quite there yet. The fried vegetable spring is the same, the taro one is definitely less good than before. The 2 meat dishes I took, the meat is just very dry. Cut too small. The meats had some sauce before after coming off the grill. Now just under seasoned & dry. Also never got the lime sauce with the Lok Lak. Going with 4 stars because maybe with some time, they will get better...
