☕ Vietnamese Drip Coffee

A slow and ritual-like experience! Coarsely ground coffee drips into a cup of sweetened condensed milk — stir it well and pour it over ice.

💡 【Practical Tips】

⚠️ Vietnamese currency has a lot of zeros. Double-check the number of zeroes before paying. A small calculator can be handy~

⚠️ Grab is the best way to get around! No fear of scams — prices are clearly listed. Motorbikes are the city’s main ride. Walk slowly when crossing the street — drivers will naturally swerve around you.

⚠️ Locals love to say it’s “coffee time” ☕ — When in Rome, do as the Romans do! Try different cafés, and remember to say “Xin chào” (hello) and “Cảm ơn” (thank you) to connect with people.

⚠️ Protect yourself from the tropical sun! Hats, sunglasses, and sunscreen are a must. Carry a foldable umbrella during the rainy season — trust me, rain here is romantically cinematic.

⚠️ Guys, bookmark this guide 🌟 — every corner of Ho Chi Minh City is worth exploring slowly. Get your stomachs and cameras ready. Adventure awaits! 🚀
