"One of the house specialities is rau câu trái dừa - a young coconut whose juice has been jellified. It’s surprisingly tasteless, but when mixed with the flesh of the coconut it gains some flavour, and is famed for being cooling and refreshing."

"I also order chè trôi nước, which is one of those fun varieties of chè: a big, gelatinous ball of goo floating in a warm bath of slimy coconut milk, sprinkled with sesame seeds. There’s a delicious ginger tang to this chè, and I really enjoy sinking my teeth into the giant orb."
