Let me take you on a tour of some of the most unique coffee shops in Vietnam.

Unlike many international chains, most people buy their coffee from small local cafes that have been serving the neighborhood for years.

10
A traditional cup of Vietnamese coffee costs only one dollar,
11
making it affordable enough for many people to enjoy every day.

enjoy a cup of coffee, and spend time together.
15
For many Vietnamese people, the coffee itself is only part of the experience.
16
What really matters is the conversation.

People gather over a cup of coffee to catch up on daily life.
18
On my way to the next coffee destination, I couldn't help but stop and show you this.
19
This sea of motorbikes might look overwhelming at first, but it's completely normal in Vietnam.
20
Instead of a cafe at street level, this one is hidden inside an old apartment building.
21
To get there, you have to get to the seventh floor.
22
Half the experience is simply finding the cafe.
23
And once you reach the top, you're rewarded with a completely different atmosphere.
24
Egg coffee is one of Vietnam's most unique coffee drinks.
25
It begins with a layer of condensed milk, followed by fresh milk.
26
Freshly brewed coffee is then poured into the cup.
27
Before it is finished with a thick layer of whipped egg yolk. In some coffee shops,
28
a thin layer of sugar is sprinkled over the foam before the staff uses a small torch to caramelize the top.
29
This creates a light, crispy layer that contrasts with the soft, creamy foam underneath.
30
Coffee was born out of necessity.
31
In the 1940s, fresh milk was scarce in Vietnam,
32
so a bartender in Hanoi whipped egg yolks with sugar and condensed milk as a substitute.
33
The result became one of Vietnam's most iconic coffee drinks.
34
First, you need to break the top with a spoon.
35
The traditional way to enjoy egg coffee is not to stir it immediately.
36
Instead, take a spoonful of the creamy egg foam first, then sip the strong coffee underneath.
37
As you continue drinking, the two gradually blend together,
38
balancing the bitterness of the coffee with the sweetness and richness of the egg cream.
39

boutiques, and local shops, so exploring the building becomes part of the experience itself.

One of the most popular photo spots at this coffee shop
49

51
When it was my turn to get into the boat, I honestly felt a little nervous.

Looking at its small size, I wasn't sure if it could support someone my size.
53
Sitting here makes me understand why many women love taking photos.

67
Moving on to a different location where coffee is the main focus.
68
Another traditional way of making coffee in Vietnam is called Sok Coffee.
69
Instead of using a metal filter or a modern coffee machine, the coffee is brewed through a cloth filter.
70
The barista first places ground coffee inside the cloth filter before slowly pouring hot water over it.
71
The coffee is then gently stirred to help release more flavor as it passes through the cloth filter into the container below.
72
Although the process is slower than modern brewing methods,
73
many people enjoy watching each step because it reflects the care and patience behind every cup.
74
For many coffee lovers, Sok coffee is not only about the taste, but also about experiencing one of Vietnam's traditional brewing methods.
75
This cup is about $1.70, while a drink at Starbucks usually costs roughly two times more.
76
For the price of one Starbucks coffee, many Vietnamese people could buy two or even three cups from a local cafe.
77
And because the local coffee is often brewed with bold Vietnamese Robusta beans,
78
many customers already feel they're getting the stronger flavor they prefer, at a much lower price.
79
After all that coffee, it was finally time to grab a local meal.
80
One of Vietnam's most unique food traditions is eating snails.
81

84
Customers can watch everything being prepared just a few feet away.
85
This is stir-fried razor clams with instant noodles, a dish that's incredibly popular at local seafood restaurants a dish that's incredibly popular at local seafood restaurants.
86
The noodles soak up all the savory juices from the clams, while fresh vegetables add a bit of crunch,
87
creating a simple but satisfying meal that's perfect for sharing.
88
Another favorite is salted egg yolk spotted Babylon snails.
89
The snails are coated in a rich buttery salted egg sauce that's creamy, slightly sweet, and packed with umami.
90
It's messy to eat, but that's part of the fun.
91
Seafood restaurants like this are where friends and families gather after work, ordering a table full of dishes to share.
92
Just like coffee, the food is only part of the experience.
93
The real attraction is spending hours talking, laughing, and enjoying a meal together.
94
One thing I love is how affordable it is.
95
For around $2 a dish, you can order several different kinds of snails and share them with three or four people.
96
Instead of everyone ordering their own meal, the whole table gets to sample a variety of flavors,
97
making it a fun and surprisingly inexpensive dining experience.
98
Steamed clams with lemongrass.
99
Grilled scallops with cheese.
100
Squid teeth in a spicy butter sauce,
101
stir-fried noodles with razor clams, steamed swimming crab.

What Starbucks discovered is that Vietnam already had one of the world's richest coffee cultures long before it arrived.
103
All cafes offer stronger coffee,
104
lower prices, unique spaces, and deeply rooted traditions that have been part of everyday life for generations.
105
In Vietnam, coffee isn't just a drink.
106
It's a ritual, a social gathering, and an important part of the culture.
107
So the story isn't about Starbucks losing.
108
It's about entering a market where coffee was already deeply woven into people's lives.
109
And perhaps that's the biggest lesson of all.
110
Even one of the world's most recognizable brands can't simply replace a tradition that millions of people already love.
111
Thank you so much for watching, and I'll see you in the next video.

你能學到什麼
這段影片非常適合雅思口語練習和英語口語練習。首先，你能學會如何用自然的節奏描述場景，比如介紹越南咖啡館的環境時，像“牆上的斑駁痕跡、裸露的混凝土”這樣的細節表達。其次，通過講述蛋咖啡的製作過程，你會掌握“先加煉乳，再倒咖啡”這類步驟描述的邏輯。最後，影片中關於咖啡文化的討論，比如“咖啡只是體驗的一部分，更重要的是對話”，能幫助你在口語中更深入地表達觀點。
注意這些發音現象
影片裡有不少連讀和弱讀現象。比如“a layer of condensed milk”中，“layer of”會連讀成/ˈleɪər ɒv/，“condensed milk”的“ed”弱讀成/d/。還有“instead of”常常會縮讀成/ɪnˈsted əv/。這些連讀技巧能讓你的口語更流暢，就像 native speaker 一樣。在進行英語影子跟讀時，注意捕捉這些細微的發音變化，模仿它們的節奏。
像母語者一樣表達
想要練好shadowspeak，關鍵是模仿說話人的重音和語調。比如影片中“這杯越南咖啡只要一美元”，重音在“只要”上，突出價格低廉；“先舀一勺奶油泡沫，再啜一口濃咖啡”，語調先升後降，體現動作的順序。練習時，跟著影片逐句重複，注意重音和停頓，讓你的表達更有感染力。記住，口語練習不僅是學單詞，更是學如何用聲音傳遞情感。
影片中的語法
說話人最常用的結構，並附上影片中的原話：
| 結構 | 影片中的用法 |
|---|---|
| 被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼，而不是誰做的 | is hidden · is then poured · is sprinkled |
| 現在完成時 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去發生但與現在仍有關聯的事 | have never experienced · have embraced · has become |
什麼是跟讀法？
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
