I don't even like coffee, but I couldn't get enough of this stuff. The beans are grown in the central highlands and the rich brew itself is best served with a dab of evaporated milk.
In Hanoi, seek out the little cafe by the east side of Hoan Kiem Lake, settle down with a paper and watch the world go by. It's amazing that distributors Vinacafe aren't yet out to conquer the world.
