I work near Nguyen Dinh Thi street, next to West Lake, where many shops and businesses are concentrated, especially coffee shops for everyone. In front of me is a "view" of West Lake, so it is not difficult to understand why this street is always crowded and bustling with customers who love to sip a cup of coffee with friends, colleagues or partners...
For me, after every working hour, I often visit a familiar coffee shop with a simple name: An.
Coffee and book space brings endless inspiration.
Perhaps many people know this shop because of its elegant, simple space, Northern style. But besides Bat Trang ceramic jars, the coffee shop is also like a "Tang Kinh Cac" with all kinds of different books.
What I like about this book cafe is the classic European literature. Although I am not pursuing a career in writing now, I still love reading European literature from classic to modern.
Simple design of coffee – book.
In the peaceful, airy space of An, after ordering a cup of traditional brown coffee, I walked up the stairs to the second floor, looking for a literary book that I liked. As soon as I finished choosing the book, the staff promptly brought me coffee.
I have a habit of sitting on the balcony drinking coffee to read books, and sometimes watching the lake and the bustling streets. When I read my favorite part, I take a sip of the fragrant coffee, as if to prolong the pleasure.
An brings me a feeling of peace with a cup of coffee and my favorite book. The space of books and coffee is always something that blends together like a match made in heaven, intensely attractive…
