Quyen takes the first few ounces of coffee and empties it into a cup then adds sugar. He mixes this into a paste which he then mixes back in to the glass cup when it is full. He keeps filling the glass with hot water then pouring the coffee into other cups for us to drink. You see, part of the fun of having coffee with friends is to be there when it is made. Thanks, Quyen, you make a great cup of coffee.




In the summers I spend time with my good friends in Phat Diem, Vietnam, a small country village with a world famous cathedral. Here are some of my musings. If you would like to correspond, please email me: garymeegan@gmail.com.
