Try trendy and inventive takes on Vietnamese coffee across L.A. and Orange County, including blended coconut coffee and egg coffee topped with salted egg yolk.
There would be nothing wrong with visiting Phin Smith, an unassuming cafe in Garden Grove with a retro Vespa parked outside, to enjoy the more baroque beverages on its menu. This includes an avocado-tinged “Javacado” smoothie, a banana milk coffee and a colorful “melon bar” matcha.
But it would be a crime to not sip the original cà phê sua dá, a smooth example of Vietnamese coffee that demonstrates why taming bold robusta coffee with velvety sweetened condensed milk is a brilliant pairing. The shop roasts its own beans imported from Vietnam, so the emphasis is undoubtedly on the intense earthiness and nuttiness of the coffee but not so much that it becomes fussy or austere — it’s simply a heightened version of a drink that is already easy to love.
