A Heartwarming Coffee Workshop with Katrina & Maryanne

Hanoi, August, 25th, 2025


Coffee, Friendship & Laughter in Hanoi — A Heartwarming Vietnamese Coffee Workshop Experience

Katrina and Maryanne - two lovely friends from the Philippines - kicked off their first trip to Hanoi in the sweetest way possible: by joining our Coffee Workshop to explore the art of Vietnamese brewing together.


From the iconic egg coffee to the smooth coconut and bold salted coffee, each cup had its own story. While Katrina fell in love with the creamy coconut coffee, Maryanne declared salt coffee the winner. Two different cups, yet both full of delight – just like their friendship, unique but perfectly in harmony.


But the real highlight wasn’t just the coffee. It was the joy of connection - sharing stories about travel, friendship, and life back home. They shared Tagalog phrases with us, we taught them a few Vietnamese words. Soon the room was filled with laughter over mispronounced words and cheerful “Một, hai, ba, dzô!” and the kind of warmth that only good friends (and good coffee) can create.


We know that every cup of coffee is more than just a drink; it's the beginning of a story and a new friendship. ""𝐴𝑡𝑒 𝐾𝑎𝑡𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑎 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑀𝑎𝑟𝑦𝑎𝑛𝑛𝑒, 𝑤𝑒’𝑙𝑙 𝑏𝑒 𝑤𝑎𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑡𝑜 𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑒 𝑏𝑎𝑐𝑘 - 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑒 𝑐𝑜𝑓𝑓𝑒𝑒, 𝑙𝑎𝑢𝑔ℎ𝑡𝑒𝑟, 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑛𝑒𝑤 𝑚𝑒𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑖𝑒𝑠 𝑡𝑜𝑔𝑒𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟." 💛


One of the most important ingredients for making the iconic egg coffee is the egg yolk (yes, just the yolk!). Here, Katrina is separating the yolk from the white. 100% focus!


Just look at her face! She is proudly showing us her perfect egg yolks, ready to make creamy egg foam.

Whisks in hand, our besties teamed up and beat the eggs – the room was filled with laughter and excitement. These are friendship memories to remember!

Sprinkle sprinkle. Some finishing touches before our final results. We can’t wait to see how our friends’ masterpieces turned out!

And voilà! A perfect three-layer cup of egg coffee - bold coffee at the bottom, creamy egg foam in the middle and cocoa on top. All crafted by Katrina herself!

Here comes Maryanne’s favorite: Salted coffee! A little salty, a little sweet - bold yet comforting, just like Hanoi’s rhythm on a lovely day.

Many travellers fell in love with coconut coffee, and Katrina was no exception. It's so refreshing, and it's super fun and easy to make! And you, which one is your favourite?
