Vietnamese Coffee Is More Than Just One Thing—Here's Where to Try It All in Hanoi | Condé Nast Traveler

"Every surface inside this more-than-thirty-year-old, four-floor coffee shop—walls, tables, windows, light fixtures, even the air conditioner box on the windowsill—is covered with sticky notes scrawled with messages from customers, making the place feel almost purpose-built for social media while still inviting you to put the camera away and just soak it all in. It’s easy to spend time here picking up notes and a pen to write as many messages as you like, then reading others’ missives, from declarations of love to resolutions to special-occasion wishes in a melange of languages. The best seats are by the windows overlooking Hoàn Kiếm lake, perfect for people-watching, especially on weekends when the street below turns into a pedestrian-only zone full of sketch artists, street performers, and roadside vendors. The signature coconut latte is both a great way to beat the heat and a must-order for coconut lovers." - Arundhati Hazra
