Saigon’s Coffee World

I visited a really nice coffee shop over a week ago called Coffee World, aka Cream and Fudge.  It is definitely a visit especially if you like waffles, yes I said waffles. Unfortunately my current diet does not allow me to eat waffles at this time but hopefully next year I can.

Instead, I ordered a green tea latte which was very good.  Yeah, I kept drooling over the waffles and ice cream.  Do me a favor and have a couple waffles for me :-)

This is one of the nicest coffee establishments I have visited in Saigon.  Addresses after the photos.

Rose Cafe – Saigon

Last Friday I met Le Viet-Kieu Saigonais at Rose Cafe located at the Ky Hoa Garden Hotel in District 10.  It is a really pleasant place to meet friends and have nice discussions.  It is fairly popular with the local Vietnamese but I do not see many Expats visiting this coffee shop while I was there.

You will like the nice pools, waterfall and fountain there.  It helps make this coffee shop a very relaxing place to stay.  I just got a few pictures the last time I visited.  I will try to get more on my next visit.

MOF- A nice Japanese style teashop in Saigon

Thanks to both Lawrence and Hiro, I now know there is a Japanese-style teashop in Saigon call MOF.  MOF is owned by a Singaporean from what I was told.  The cafe itself is nice an quiet.

MOF serves a large assortment of Japanese green tea including my favorite, genmaicha.  If you are hungry, get yourself a nice reasonably priced bento box.  MOF even offers desserts though on this particular day, I just settled for tea which was very good.  I am a fan of green tea.

MOF is located on 30 Le Loi Blvd in District 1 of Saigon.  There is motorbike parking available.

A new Coffee Bean coffee shop in Saigon

Got a picture of the newest Coffee Bean coffee shop in Saigon.  It is located in the Metropolitan Building where HSBC had their original office.  Oddly enough, HCBC has moved to where Highlands Coffee used to be located.

Du Mien Coffee Shop (Videos)

This morning I met a friend at the Du Mien Coffee Shop near my house today.  I remember over a year ago, I complained it was too loud at Du Mien. Not anymore.  I have had several meetings there in the last couple of months.  The atmosphere has become quieter.  The staff have turned down the music.  I praise the owner for making these changes.  Most of his coffee shops, he has about three that I know of in this part of Saigon, are quiet now.

Today I decided to take some video shots of Du Mien with my G1 phone.  Yeah, they are a bit short but in the future I want to make longer video recordings of the places I visit for this blog.
