Nestled down a bustling road in Nha Trang, like a hidden gem in a forest of motorbikes, lies Alpaca Cafe—an establishment so charming, you half expect a real alpaca to greet you at the door (don’t worry, it’s not on the menu… yet). The place is furnished like an old European cottage, the kind where you imagine a granny knitting by the fireplace, with a higgledy-piggledy mix of chairs and tables that looks like they were lovingly rescued from a flea market in five different countries. But somehow, it works. Much like the way an alpaca rocks that unkempt fluff—it’s a beautiful chaos.

The menu, much like the decor, is a delightful jumble of French, English, Asian, and even Mexican cuisine. It's as if the owners threw a culinary world tour onto the table and said, "Why not?" Alpacas are native to South America, so a Peruvian dish might have fit in, but hey, I’m not here to judge. Well, I am, but let’s move on.

Now, onto the food! Let's start with the streaky bacon—crispy, salty, and perfectly cooked. None of that dry back bacon nonsense here, just pure bacon brilliance. The roasted potatoes were fluffy on the inside, crispy on the outside, like little potato clouds kissed by the oven gods. And the double cheese crepe? A cheesy dream wrapped in a thin, golden pancake hug. The sausage was top-quality, and the salad was so well-dressed it could walk down a runway. Bravo, salad!

The service? Alpaca-approved. Warm, welcoming, and attentive, they make you feel like part of the herd from the moment you step in.

In short, Alpaca Cafe is a quirky little treasure in Nha Trang. Come for the food, stay for the charm—and maybe bring a poncho, just in case an actual alpaca shows up. Wouldn’t that be something?
