I was dying to try the famous 'lotus drink' I’d heard so much about. It turned out to be incredibly refreshing - a perfect blend of zesty honey lemon tea and aromatic herbal ingredients served over crushed ice with a natural straw.
The shop itself has a lovely rustic charm, the interior is cozy, small, and beautifully decorated. It became my daily ritual to grab one while I was there, especially since it was so affordable at just 19,000 VND.
I also ordered the grilled pork, which was delicious! To me, it tasted a bit like Moo Satay or Gai Dang (red grilled chicken), served with a savory bean-based dipping sauce. (I might be wrong about the ingredients, but it was definitely yummy!
My only complaint was the service, which was a bit slow due to how busy it gets. Also, a word of caution "I actually found a bee in my cup the second time I bought it" - it’s a guarantee the drink is natural when even a bee wants to try it
