Hi friends! Today I want to share my wonderful find - a Vietnamese restaurant in Lviv, Ukraine! It was my wonderful choice of the week when my girlfriend invited me to visit this place. Yes, as if I have been on a fascinating journey and oriental culture and traditions!

The first exciting impression was the green tea we were given in exotic Vietnamese ceramic tableware with small pials that could be held on the palm of our hand. This is unusual for Ukraine and I was very pleased. The tea was strong and tart and we asked to pour us some more hot water :)

My daughters and I first drank tea from such rials and we also added milk to the tea. My daughters and I first drank tea from such rials and we also added milk to the tea.

The second miracle of Oriental cuisine was the small meat and cabbage dishes that were to be eaten with wooden chopsticks! And they were given a very hot sauce for it! I gave too much and then I drank a lot of tea to put out the fire in my mouth :)

I also found the exotic decor in this restaurant very exotic. Clay vases with Vietnamese inscriptions, amazing bike and lantern, fan on the wall ...

And at the end of our visit, we ordered coffee because we wanted to find out if Vietnamese coffee was similar to Eastern coffee brewed on sand. And it turned out that this coffee is prepared by a different method. She was dripping from an interesting coffee machine and it was given with condensed milk with sugar!

We have been in this restaurant for a long time, considering all the special details of the oriental style. And I want to say that the owners of this restaurant are a family of indigenous Vietnamese who have their own business in Ukraine. The prices at this establishment surprised us a lot. They were cheaper than in Ukrainian cafes. That is why I recommend all the guests of our city Lviv to visit this restaurant of Vietnamese cuisine on Menzynsky Street in Lviv.
