The harmony of indoor and outdoor spaces and design using the green of trees and the white background of the ancient walls as the main theme has created many attractive sitting corners.

From the entrance, small potted plants neatly are arranged on the wall shelves, followed by the windows and the thick wall is kept intact from the old French house. The modern design of the bar along with the Western-style tables and chairs are harmonized in the open direction to create friendliness as well as increasing interaction with guests.

As shared by Ms Tu Le Nhu Tam, Li An cafe owner, although coming out only in a short time since February 2021 and has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic for more than 5 months, the café has been attracting many certain customers.
