Right today I'm taking you out for a
fantastic egg coffee, yesterday we had a
really disappointing egg coffee. I was
excited to take you out, when I got to
this place, which was super well reviewed,
turned out to be not what I expected. It
was a very very disappointing and I
promised you then I would take and find
the sort of egg coffee
that I really had expected, something
charming, something passionate and
something that you would enjoy if you
were in Hanoi. I found a place, we
actually searched all around the old
city, you'd be surprised where I found
this place, let's get on and check out
the best egg coffee in Hanoi.
So only a few doors up from my
disappointing coffee yesterday, we have cafe
Nang and this is where I want to take
you today, so come on inside and try a
really nice egg coffee.Now this is what
I was looking for, an individual egg
coffee made specially by somebody that
actually cared what they're producing.
Now a little bit about the history of
Cà phê trứng or egg coffee, here in
Vietnam. It was made during a time of a
shortage of milk, I think back in the
1950s and some entrepreneur came up with
the idea of emulsifying egg and sweet
condensed milk together to get this
wonderful creamy foam, combined great
Vietnamese coffee with that delicious
sweet foam, serve it on a little tea
light just to keep it warm so you can
sit back and enjoy the ambiance of this
great cafe and what better experience
could you want to in Hanoi. Now that's what
I'm talking about, that is egg coffee
the way I kind of expected it to be in
the last place. This is actually just two
doors up from the one we went to yesterday
that purports to be the best in town. Now you can see it's
chalk and cheese, it's 5,000 more or five
it's eh it's a tiny it's a few cents extra
the experience, the ambience, the wonderful, ....Cafe Nang...Cafe Nang is
the place. I'm going to put the details
up on the video anyway so you can see
but what chalk and cheese cafe Giang is
just two doors down here, know where near the same service or quality trust me. It makes
me a little sad actually but as we
came past the other place there are
queues and queues of people waiting to go in to
taste that very mediocre service that was in
there. I don't want to down on them hugely
but you know when you come
out and you want to experience something
it should at least be memorable. Which this absolutely is. That is
so good and I am going to put up a video on how to make this. You saw the lady, the lady,
the lady kindly show me how she did it
this truly is the best egg coffee in Hanoi.
Like many in Hanoi this coffee shop has
a lot of great history it became a
favorite of ours while we were in Hanoi
and I should say don't fixate just on
the egg coffee the next day we had a
delicious iced yogurt coffee which was
great so check out the full menu and
share the love and say hi to the owners
and I hope they're able to keep up this
high standard coffee into the future.
It's funny with the camera out now nobody's
going to ask me, normally when you walk
up and down this street the lads are all
out with the the menu boards they are
asking you to come in and eat but as soon as the camera came on
they've all stopped so I don't know wether
it's illegal or what is but anyway the sort
of food that you're going to get in this
street is highly westernized versions of
Vietnamese food it still makes fun eating
out, the drink, here is super cheap,
the people are very friendly.
That was the egg coffee experience I was
looking for on the first video I wanted
an egg coffee that had been made specifically
for me by somebody with a bit of passion,
wasn't that great. I hope you loved it,
share the love, give this the thumbs up
and we will see you in another video
Take care.
