If you think you’ve tasted it all, wait until you experience the magic that happens when these flavors come together. Trust me, this is one culinary adventure you won’t want to miss.
Vietnamese Iced Coffee and Bánh Xèo
Let’s start with the iconic Vietnamese coffee. A rich, dark brew sweetened with condensed milk, Vietnamese iced coffee with condensed milk is the perfect companion for balmy tropical mornings or an afternoon pick-me-up. Pair it with crispy Bánh Xèo (Vietnamese savory pancake), and you’ll discover a delightful contrast between the robust coffee and the delicate crunch of the pancake. This pairing is simply heavenly.
