Good food but prices have been updated with quite a bit recently making it less attractable and less competitable with many other good restaurants. A dish, Feta Brucheta went up from 95k to 120k comparing with the currently online menu. A 25% increase 😬😬. Panckes and waffles even went from 65k to 90k, 30% raise.. not sure why they increased so much but I know plenty of restaurants where I can still get pancakes for 65k with the same quality. Maybe I am just spoiled but I dont understand the recent huge price changes.
They also need to hire more staff. I see people waiting to order up to 10mn all the time and walking to the counter to order themselves instead. Waiting time for the food akso increased.
I still like to come there from time to time but certainly not as often as before anymore because of all the changes...
Answer to the reaction of the owner:
Could be the case that the prices are from two years ago but you were only and still are advertising (in some photos) with those prices.
Prices can be gone up but there are still plenty of restaurants who offer same quality food for your old prices. You are free to ask your price but I am free to review what is offered so people know what they are up to instead of after arriving noticing up to 30% higher prices.
I hope you agree transparancy of prices on internet is fair (I see you added the new prices but the old are...
Read moreI'm sitting in the cafe now. It's nice—there's a sign that says "no working." Theres fewer vegetarian options than the name of the place would suggest. There are, however, three women sitting next to us who are the most annoying things I've heard since having a whining baby next to me on a flight. They've just asked for the salmon salad to be served in a large portion—"big portion, you understand? I'll pay an extra 10,000. Make it big."
They also ask for extra vegetables, served on the side for their salad, and tacos without avocado, but the avocado must be served on the side. Now they ask for the music to be turned down, and they've rearranged the furniture, moving tables and chairs around before deciding to just move to another table.
The taco comes and the avocado is NOT on the side. The staff say, "Yes, no avocado," and they yell back, "I said on the SIDE. Put it on the side!" Another staff member comes to try and help because they don’t know what is going on.
Now the coffee has come and they're complaining about the sugar—too much or not enough. My girlfriend just whispers, "Maybe you should just eat at home."
I put the table and chairs back the way they were, and my girlfriend says, "Thank you—that was annoying me too." I'm a heartbeat away from saying, "You are the most annoying people I've ever met in my life."
The salad arrives, and now they're saying it's too...
Read moreOne of my fav coffee places in Hoi An.
1/ The folks know how to make a good cup of coffee. Especially, recommended — ginger coffee and coconut coffee. They also have their own twist on egg coffee.
2/ Brekkie — lots of options (bowls, egg dishes). When ordering egg dish, we recommend banh mi add-on instead of sourdough real nice.
3/ And the view. Can't beat the rice paddy view out of the window. Had a few working sessions here (the owners are laptop-friendly) and really appreciated an option to rest my eyes on the rice paddy.
They also have big table for 8 people.
P.S. Really like the professionalism of the guys upfront. Reminded me a bit of "The Bear" scenario — no time to lose, very to the point. This is not a critique rather my subjective idea — but would be great to experience this place and this energy from the guys accompanied by jazz music. I reckon...
