Cong Ca Phe
26 Lý Tự Trọng, Bến Nghé, Quận 1, Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam
Fast growing café chain
You might notice that this café is very different, first of all, from its name, Cong Ca Phe. Of course, its pronunciation
is similar to coffee in Chinese (which is similar to the rest of the languages as ‘coffee’ is a loan word). This street is full
of people: young, old, couples with kids – everyone enjoys this traditional street with its stools on the sidewalk and cof-
fee in a cup. The traditional Vietnam coffee is made in Phin. The most popular Vietnam coffees are: iced black coffee (Ca
Phe Den Da) and condensed milk ice coffee (Ca Phe Sua da), Sua da refers to the condensed milk in Vietnamese.
