For Imbibe’s July/August issue, Dan Q. Dao explores the expanding world of Vietnamese coffee in America, sharing the stories of Vietnamese cafés and the drinks they serve. For this episode, we visit one of those cafés, Hello Em in Seattle’s Little Saigon neighborhood, and chat with Yenvy Pham (who co-owns the café with Nghia Bui) about her family’s role in the city’s Vietnamese culinary scene and Hello Em’s approach to coffee, and we taste along through a selection of the drinks.
