Brodard Café and Restaurant, Ho Chi Minh

131 Dong Khoi Street, District 1 T. 822 3966

We had a fair amount of dessert today. This is another recommended café that was known for its chocolate cake, but by the time we got there (and it was only three in the afternoon), they had run out!! So instead we had the caramelized banana in a rum sauce. It has to be said that this cafe doesn't skint on portions. This came with four whole bananas doused in a thick and bountiful sauce. But the generousity didn't stop there--I felt like I could breathe alcohol!!! The perfect bite: a cube of banana covered in sauce and topped with a wee sprig of mint. As Jamie Oliver would say: Pukka.

The café is along the shopping drag, Dong Khoi (akin to Singapore’s Orchard Road) and a good place to rest tired feet.
