This was the best dessert I had. The big ice cubes made such a difference! Made it cold but not diluted. Definitely recommend.

Nice little cafe on a busy street. Good for people watching! Very modest prices, and a lot of options. During Tét they were out of a few items, but the Thai milk tea we settled on was quite tasty. One word of warning: there is a shop with many birds/birdcages next door. If you sit immediately next to that shop, unfortunately you will catch the scent of dirty birdcages occasionally, so I would suggest not sitting directly next to it (when you’re looking at the cafe from the street, the bird shop would be on the left). That is certainly not the fault of this cafe, so I wouldn’t dock any stars for that little inconvenience. Stop by and get a refreshing drink!
