Hoian som & Bingsu
Description
A som (cotton candy) and bingsu spot that leans hard into the visual experience – the drinks are photogenic, the space is bright, and the air conditioning actually works (a bigger selling point in Hoi An than you’d think). It’s the kind of place that earns its following from the atmosphere as much as the menu.
The bingsu is the headline act, but go in with measured expectations. Portions are generous, prices are on the higher end for what you get, and the milk ice can melt faster than you can eat it – especially on a hot afternoon.
The som (cotton candy) drinks are probably the safer bet here, and the space is comfortable enough to sit in for a while.
