FeFe Roastery - Overlooking Ba Mu Temple @ Hoi An [Vietnam]

I mentioned previously that I offered to pay for drinks and snacks for Alex at a cafe that overlooked the iconic gates of Ba Mu temple and this was it; FeFe Roastery that commanded an almost perfect 4.90 on Google Map! 

Aside from alfresco and ground floor seating, my recommendation is to go up to the second level if you prefer a quieter environment to enjoy the relaxing vibe of the UNESCO city. Only problem; no air-conditioning.

Second level also gave you a better view of Ba Mu temple

Our orders, or you can say the bribery for Alex! We didn't want to order too much as lunch was a done deal two hours earlier and each of us also had a bahn mi just about 30 minutes ago. 

Avocado Smoothie - this was one thick smoothie that tasted marvelously sweet without being too sweet! God knows how many avocados were "juiced"! Only thing is that avocado doesn't quite quench the thirst and cool us down. 

Coffee with Condensed Milk - I needed the caffeine fix after lunch and what's better than the traditional Vietnamese drip coffee!? I was startled by the thick layer of condensed milk though as I usually go for siew dai (less sweet) in Singapore.

Since it was such a hot day, iced coffee would be very much welcome. Unlike Singapore, where iced coffee has a different pricing; hot or iced in FeFe Roastery had the same price! 

No doubt a strong dosage that perked up a relaxed soul that was supposed to be on holiday! Not that it mattered to me since I would have more energy for exploration. Not for Alex; who was dying to go back to the hotel, and sleep. 

Crispy Thick Fries - these gave me the potato wedges vibe which I don't really like but they were good; blessed with plenty of blended potato hidden in the thin, crisp skin sprinkled with herbs that set them apart from your typical, normal fries, they were also served piping hot! 

Loving the pinkish mayonnaise dip that was a great substitute for my usual must-have Kimball Thai chilli sauce! Do eat the thick fries while they are hot as the crispness soften with every passing minute.
