The price is<strong>399,000 dong (about 2,400 yen).<\/strong>It's a giant glass that uses<strong>20 grams<\/strong>of matcha per serving, and the shop calls on people to \"enjoy it in groups of 3\u20134 or more.\" It's currently offered at each of the District 1, District 2 (Thao Dien), and District 3 locations.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"index_1\"><strong>A comically giant glass<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The signature 2-liter latte is a cup whose visual impact translates directly into photogenic appeal. It's not an amount for one person to finish, but designed as a shared drink premised on splitting it among several people. The shop humorously warns that \"drinking too much in one day will get you drunk (say) on matcha,\" hinting at the strength of 20 grams of matcha.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Item<\/th>\n<th>Details<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Shop name<\/td>\n<td>Kocha Matcha Spot<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Menu<\/td>\n<td>2-liter matcha latte (20g matcha)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Price<\/td>\n<td>399,000 dong (about 2,400 yen)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Recommended number of people<\/td>\n<td>3\u20134 or more<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Serving locations<\/td>\n<td>District 1, District 2 (Thao Dien), District 3<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2 id=\"index_2\"><strong>Limited daily quantity, first come, first served<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Because each location limits the daily number of 2-liter lattes served, if you want to be sure to drink one, coming early is safest. Some locations have Japanese-style tatami seating, set up so you can savor matcha in a calm space. With minimalist interiors and soft lighting, it's a place that catches travelers who are tea people rather than coffee people.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"index_3\"><strong>Matcha caf\u00e9s spreading in the \"country of coffee\"<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Vietnam is a major coffee-producing region, but among young urbanites, Japanese-style matcha caf\u00e9s are gaining presence. The experience of gathering around a giant glass together suits group customers who seek photos and buzz. For Japanese doing caf\u00e9-hopping in Ho Chi Minh City, it's a shop worth remembering as an option beyond coffee.<\/p>\n<p>Related reading:<br \/>\n\u30fb<a href=\"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/news\/ngam-cafe-saigon\/\">Ng\u1ea5m Cafe, a retro 24-hour space \u2014 the \"immersive\" caf\u00e9 sweeping social media in Saigon's District 3<\/a><br \/>\n\u30fb<a href=\"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/news\/hansoo-cafe-saigon\/\">Actor Stephen Nguyen's Hansoo Cafe sold out on opening day \u2014 a new fusion of Korean minimalism and Saigon<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source:<a href=\"https:\/\/thetravelintern.com\/unique-cafes-ho-chi-minh-city\/\">The Travel Intern<\/a>\uff0f<a href=\"https:\/\/www.threads.com\/@kocha_matchaspot\/post\/DNuSbGr5lYm\/\">Kocha Matcha Spot official<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ho Chi Minh's Japanese-affiliated caf\u00e9 Kocha Matcha Spot rolled out a 2-liter matcha latte with 20 g of matcha at all stores.
