A Morning in Ho Chi Minh Starts with a Steaming Cup of Egg Coffee
Step into a retro-style coffee apartment converted from an old house, order a hot Egg Coffee, and pair it with a plate of silky egg pudding and bread 🍮🍞. Leisurely sit by the window, gazing at the neon signs of coffee shop names on the walls of the old building, each hiding its own unique story.
🌆 In the afternoon, take a stroll through the city square, where skyscrapers and nostalgic apartments intertwine in the scenery. At night, switch to a different flavor by finding a steaming bowl of beef pho 🍜 in the alleys, paired with fresh herbs, as if the essence of Vietnam is dancing in the soup.
Ho Chi Minh is truly chill—old houses, coffee, street food—every moment is worth capturing.
