The most famous home of salt coffee is Ca Phe Muoi. Said to be the first place in Hue to make salt coffee, it now has two locations, on 10 Nguyen Luong Bang Street and 142 Dang Thai Than Street. A local caf\u00e9 known to every resident, it is also popular with tourists seeking the authentic taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At a glance, salt coffee looks like just a sweet Vietnamese coffee, but one sip and the flavor of salt spreads. Watching dark, bitter Vietnamese coffee drip over a white, cloud-like liquid where condensed milk, milk foam and salt have melted together is a delight in itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The taste is often compared to salted-caramel-flavored coffee; the salt works exquisitely to bring out the sweetness of the condensed milk. Easier to drink than ordinary sweet Vietnamese coffee, it is a cup that wins many people over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Ca Phe Muoi, a simple salt coffee can be enjoyed for 15,000 VND (about 120 yen). Yogurt and fruit tea are also served at around 20,000 VND, and the reasonable prices are part of the appeal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Nh\u00e0<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The interior is designed in an old-fashioned style reminiscent of royal architecture, with a garden full of greenery alongside. At the back of the shop there is also a seating area overlooking the Perfume River, where you can relax feeling the cool breeze from the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The drink menu offers the standard coffees, fruit juices and teas, but our top recommendation is the Hue royal tea set with sweets, available for 130,000 VND (about 1,000 yen). It is perfect for anyone who wants to savor Hue\u2019s character and a nostalgic atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
