Hanoi 1991 The Vietnamese Coffee House

I’ve been looking forward to having lunch and trying out Vietnamese Bahn Mi! The servers were friendly and recommended to me Cinnamon Egg Coffee instead of cocoa (because it was already sweet) and I appreciate that because it was my first time trying the egg coffee. There was no black sugar pearl boba - next time! The Bahn Mi was yummy - baguette times by 10. Had all my favourite tastes like spicy tang, fried tofu, packed with veggies and the bread wasn’t stale or too soft. I opted for the vegan tofu as I have a halal diet and personally prefer vegan food over food that I’m not 100% sure is permissible for me to eat. Next time I’ll bring a friend ❤️

Today I tried Egg Coffee with cocoa powder. It was my first time trying the Egg Coffee. The foam tasted sweet (but not TOO sweet) and the coffee was a bit stronger than what I usually taste but as I drink the foam and coffee together, it tasted (mixed) just nicely and deliciously. However, when I just got the coffee and tried the first sip I got surprised as it has A LOT of egg foam compared to the coffee. I thought I ordered the egg foam only HAHA so I asked staff then he explained me that it is due to the barista’s style. As I remember, he told me that there are two baristas: one usually put 50:50 of foam and coffee but the other put more than 50% of foam. It was quite interesting story and actually I liked the style today since I could tasted more egg foam which I am trying first time. I am willing to come back and try other egg foam menus next time but that time I wish can get 50:50 ratio to taste the drink as well :))

Great spot if you're after a quick and tasty lunch. I had the lemongrass beef bahn mi which I would recommend. Although I would have liked a slightly higher meat to bread ratio. The smoothie was also good, but I will try one of the signature egg coffees next time as that sounded interesting. There is additional seating upstairs with space for 4 or 5 of you to sit comfortably at each table. There are also smaller tables for eating solo or in a pair.
