Before being recognized as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site, Hoi An developed tourism a few decades ago, so there is no shortage of shops selling delicious food and drinks. Coming to Hoi An, visitors have countless options, from affordable to high-end and luxurious, it is not difficult to satisfy their preferences. In the past few years, there is a drink so famous that almost everyone who goes to Hoi An wants to try it once, which is a glass of herbal water decorated with lotus petals, sold on Tran Phu street.
Coming from a small street vendor, up to now, Mot has a more spacious place on Tran Phu Street but still maintains a rustic layout with rattan mats, ceramic cups, and seasonal vases.
The glass of herbal juice with a selling price of 18,000 VND was cleverly rejected by the owner of the restaurant, in line with the photography tastes of tourists.
This rustic drink is a combination of many natural ingredients such as lemongrass, lemongrass, licorice, and aloe vera,... should be collectively called herbal water, lemongrass juice or often called by tourists by the name of the restaurant: Mot water. Mud has a cool taste, a faint aroma from natural herbs, suitable for cooling off after wandering around Hoi Chi Street in the sweltering summer.
In addition to the cool taste, the minimalist but no less eye-catching decoration is also a plus point that makes this drink a "must try" in Hoi Chi Street. Mot water is stored in a fairly simple white takeaway paper cup, decorated with a pair of dark green tea leaves and a rustic lotus petal, adding bamboo straws to contribute to environmental protection.
In front of the door of the Mot water shop, there are always many customers queuing up to buy, regardless of whether it is sunny or evening.
Although the glass of water is rustic and simple, when placed in the background, the golden walls or confetti trellises blooming along the road are extremely suitable. The 'virtual life' team also often jokes that they know where they are just by looking at the glass of water. Perhaps because of this, most people who come to Hoi An want to enjoy it once as well as hold a glass of cool Mot water leisurely to take pictures and check in around Hoi An street.
