At some spots, it feels like walking through a Vietnamese market, yet the culture here clearly retains its Eastern Isan identity.

I walked to the coffee boiled eggs stall located not far from the Vietnamese food zone in this morning market. The aroma of freshly roasted coffee mixed with the scent of hot boiled eggs was very enticing.

The sweetness and richness come from brown sugar that dissolves well in the hot coffee. The first sip reveals a unique intensity and smoothness.
