In modern Vietnamese society, the presence of coffee permeates the lifestyle and culture of nearly everyone. Vietnam has the special coffee culture that different from Western countries.Vietnamese people drink coffee leisurely, elderly men congregate early in the morning at cafes to sip on a few cups of coffee while discussing politics or the daily news. In the evenings and throughout the night, youth and adults alike gather with friends and family to hang out at coffee shops to socialize or even sing karaoke.In Vietnam, coffee seems belong to male. Female go to coffee shop often choose fruit juices, soft drink or ice cream…Vietnamese coffee is often brewed in something known as a phin (from filter, with the ‘l’ pronounced as an ‘n’), a simple device that’s essentially a single cup metal strainer. The coffee grounds are placed at the bottom of the cup and pressed down firmly with a perforated tamp before the metal canister is filled with boiling water. The liquid slowly percolates through the tamp, through the grounds, and trickles into the cup below.As the comment of my friend, drinking coffee in Vietnam as an elegant amusement. They could find the relaxation through coffee-drop or happiness with buddies.
