Dear brothers and sisters,

In Danang, I always drank Saigon iced milk coffee every morning. I drank to stay awake and for pleasure. My best friend from middle school and her husband (also my middle school friend) opened a coffee shop and named it Saigon Iced Milk Coffee in Danang. Perhaps almost Danang people like to drink Saigon coffee. 

I thought when I went to Saigon, I would try that kind of drink here. However, when I started in Saigon 4 years ago, I sought and couldn’t find any coffee shop that sold Saigon iced milk coffee. They only sold ice milk coffee. My friend told me: “Danang people have ‘Saigon ice milk coffee’, but the Saigonese don’t know there is such a thing called ‘Saigon ice milk coffee’. They only have ‘iced coffee here.'”

Oh, well. If I open a coffee shop here, I’ll call it “Danang Ice Milk Coffee”. OK?

I haven’t drank coffee in 2 years because I have a new diet. However, sometimes when I remember the story, I feel funny.

Share with you.

Have a nice day.
