I am thoroughly enjoying the Vietnamese coffee now that I've succumbed to using ice. All travel advice strongly advises against ingesting even one drop of tap water. Even the local people don't drink the tap water. We devise intricate processes to brush our teeth and to ensure the Beamer doesn't swallow any water in the shower. This means that in this hot hot climate we can't eat things that we crave like fresh fruit that we don't peel ourselves, salad, and ice. We religiously keep to this practice until we can no longer resist. We're choosy where we commit this act of gastronomic defiance but defy it we do! First we try to confirm that the ice is made from bottled water. And then we go wild! Strong rich Vietnamese coffee with sweetened condensed milk in a glass loaded with sparkly, clinking, crackly, gorgeous ice! It is a very worthy Starbucks substitute!
