I was passing through International Plaza yesterday and surprised to see a Trung Nguyen Cafe just at the side of the main lobby. So I decided to check out the “Creative 1: Thoughts” hot vietnamese drip coffee. It costs $5.00 and I had to wait for 5 mins for them to prepare. Although the size was just about half that of a regular takeaway cup at Starbucks, the thick and smooth vietnamese coffee was heavenly – just like or very close to the ones I had tried in Ho Chi Minh City.

I do find the prices at both Trung Nguyen outlets to be bit expensive for Singapore. The same coffee, in the same store in Vietnam is about US$1. The traditional way, I understand is to drink it with condensed milk. There will be a strong vanilla aftertaste…rich, robust coffee.

I tried to recreate this with a lever espresso machine, roasting the coffee beans myself…see the results:

Second try was better:

In reply to Veron. Hi, trung nguyen coffee also has a branch in Singapore Polytechnic itself. The price isn't very expensive and it taste pretty good.

I was looking for some pictures of Harajuju Town, then I found your blog on a search of Google. Well, I was kinda surprised when seeing an entry of yours about Vietnamese coffee. Since I’m Vietnamese, it feel really great reading about your feeling you have for Vietnamese coffee (esp. Trung Nguyen brand).
Yeah, it’s true that other types of coffee in Vietnam are richer :). Here in Vietnam you will find different flavors of Vietnamese coffee everywhere, with condensed milk or sugar, in the coffee shops, in the restaurants, on the street also. Come and visit Vietnam someday, you will explore more than just coffee that can attract you :P

Btw, can I take some pictures of yours about Harajuku? :)

In reply to James. I agree with you on the Starbucks coffee. I only go there for the hot chocolate these days.

Hi Veron. Starbucks? Who needs Starbucks? Took away a lot of my bucks and cents in recent years. But Starbucks was good when they were actually selling coffee! But it’s 95% water and milk, 4% coffee and 1% froth now. Now this coffee place gives me a reason to go Liang Court. If you were to go to New Orleans, there is a place called Cafe Du Monde. It has coffee that is similar to Trung. I bought a tin of Cafe Du Monde coffee powder – Coffee and Chicory – and it’s strong and full of flavour.

Great to read your review. I’ve been meaning to try this place. Your review has reminded me to get down to Liang Court pronto.

This is great information. I will definitely try the place out. I’m not much of a coffee drinker but I do enjoy the occasional brew with friends. Thanks for sharing. :)

In reply to Veron.

Yup,

agree with the ‘watered down’ versions. Truth is eversince I got back from Hanoi, I take my coffee ‘as-is’ these days if it’s freshly grounded. Coffemate still works well with Nescafe if you know what I mean.

In reply to py. I think avid coffee drinkers would find the Vietnamese coffee very refreshing (in a caffeinated kind of way). It is one of the strongest coffees they can get in Singapore.

Thanks for the post. I won’t have been able to tell which coffee is nice because I usually don’t drink coffee. Yet the post is helpful if I would need to suggest coffee-drinking places to my friends who are coffee drinkers.

In reply to Kyo. Great! You should probably be able to differentiate the various types of coffee better than I do. I tried #1 and #2 on the menu, and both tasted the same to me!
