Around 8 PM, Mr. Nguyen Hoang (40 years old) and his wife, Ms. Nguyen Thi Tuyet, were "working at full capacity" to serve customers who came to enjoy tofu pudding, agar jelly, glutinous rice pudding, and other desserts.
Among the items, tofu pudding is the best-selling, rarely left over. Even on weekends, they have to sell some and simultaneously cook extra.
According to Mr. Hoang, the shop has been open for over 5 years. The space is very small and narrow, just enough room for the counter. However, it's always crowded every evening. Dozens of people line up to order, pay, and sit on the plastic chairs placed on the sidewalk.
Ms. Tuyet honestly admitted that making tofu pudding is not a family tradition. A few years ago, she researched online to learn how to make it, and then she and her husband started selling it at home.
The restaurant is open from 5:30 PM to around 10:00 PM daily, but it's busiest around 8:00 PM.

The menu includes tofu pudding, agar jelly, black pearl tofu pudding, caramel pudding, and glutinous rice pudding, etc. Prices range from 10,000 to 30,000 VND.
"We don't have much experience or any special recipes. The important thing is that all the ingredients and dishes at my shop are homemade and prepared on the same day to ensure the freshest possible taste. In the morning, I make caramel pudding and tapioca pearls, and in the afternoon, I cook tofu pudding and tapioca pearls," Ms. Tuyet said.
Each bowl of tofu pudding is served piping hot, topped with a subtly sweet syrup and fragrant jasmine aroma, reminiscent of the traditional tofu pudding. The creamy white, wobbly tofu pieces are soft, smooth, and fragrant, melting in your mouth.
Customers who prefer their tofu pudding chilled can request extra ice.
Besides tofu pudding, the shop also serves traditional agar jelly and black jelly. The agar jelly is dark green and cut into thin slices.
The two most popular items here are tofu pudding with agar jelly, priced at 15,000 VND, and caramel tofu pudding with black tapioca pearls, priced at 20,000 VND.
The dishes were considered quite substantial for the price, with delicious flavors and just the right amount of sweetness.
Lan Anh (24 years old, Hanoi ) is a regular customer of the shop. The female customer likes the traditional tofu pudding flavor, with a hint of jasmine.
"The tofu pudding is smooth and soft, the tapioca pearls are chewy and crunchy, a harmonious combination. I wasn't overly impressed with the agar jelly and pandan leaf jelly, but they were still easy to eat," Lan Anh commented.
Mr. Thai's family (from Hoan Kiem district) visited the shop after being introduced to it by an acquaintance. "The tofu pudding was served still warm, with a subtly sweet flavor that reminded me of the tofu pudding from the old days—quite simple but delicious and easy to eat," Mr. Thai shared.
This tofu pudding shop has received many positive reviews on social media. The flavors of the dishes aren't exceptionally outstanding or unique, but they are well-balanced. The shop's strengths include affordable prices, fast and enthusiastic service. Although there's a queue, customers don't have to wait more than 10 minutes.
