I didn't know until I arrived in Vietnam that Brazil is the kingdom of coffee, but Vietnam's coffee is also famous in the world. The Vietnamese love coffee, just as the Chinese love tea, it is a kind of love and fascination that goes deep into the bone marrow and brings from the blood, perhaps it is that cup of coffee that gradually bakes out the gentle and easygoing patience of the Vietnamese people.

Pure Vietnamese coffee is drip coffee, with a special drip coffee pot, which is made of stainless steel and aluminum, with a pressing plate and a small hole in the lower part. I heard that the coffee filtered out of aluminum is more mellow and smooth. There will be a pot of refreshing iced tea in front of the coffee table. It is also a kind of comfort to enjoy the taste of iced tea slowly in the leisure time waiting for coffee. The full-bodied coffee slowly leaked into the glass from the dripping cup, covering the sweet condensed milk at the bottom of the cup, and the air was filled with long-lasting mellow fragrance, subconsciously sucking the wings of the nose, taking a deep breath, and at first it was just a faint fragrance, which seemed to be entangled, and gradually the fragrance began to thicken bit by bit, so the whole person seemed to be surrounded by the aroma of coffee, feeling heart and body indulged in it.

Vietnamese coffee uses condensed milk instead of milk and sugar. Vietnamese coffee mixed with condensed milk tastes peculiar and unimaginably strong, but it does not blend with the bitterness of the coffee. Sweet greasy and bitter tastes coexist between the teeth, launching a war of growth and decline, very much like the taste of love.

There are two kinds of places to drink coffee in Vietnam, one is high-end coffee shop, the other is open-air seating by the side of the road, and the price is also very different. In an open-air seating, you can enjoy delicious and pure Vietnamese coffee for two yuan, while in a high-end coffee shop, it costs 25 to 30 yuan.

High-end cafe, luxurious decoration, there are small bridge and flowing water, there is music playing, the table is filled with pink roses, full of romantic sentiment; in a quiet environment, slowly watching the thick coffee dripping slowly, as if time suddenly slows down. The room is full of coffee fragrance, the room is full of enjoyment, idle, contented. This kind of cafe is a place for leisure chat, where you can sit outside and bask in the sun and watch the street view.

Open-air seating, this is the most local Vietnamese culture. There are two plastic stools, one sitting and one serving coffee in the open-air seating on the street. Groups of Vietnamese can be seen everywhere, foreigners sitting around the coffee stalls in the street, chatting and reading newspapers in a low voice, the day looks particularly safe and beautiful.
