What to expect:

Tucked away in a narrow alley in the Old Quarter, you'll find the the best spot for Hanoi's famous egg coffee. Don't be surprised by the bustling crowd perched on tiny stools; it's all part of the authentic experience. This iconic drink, invented in 1946 out of necessity during a milk shortage, is more of a dessert than a coffee - a rich, creamy, tiramisu-like treat that's a must-try for any visitor.
