المعنى
The common act of having tea.
خلفية ثقافية
Tea is often called 'chè'. It is usually served very strong and hot, even in summer. Sidewalk 'trà đá' stalls are the center of social life. Tea is often served as 'trà đá' (iced tea) in large glasses, sometimes for free in restaurants. It is usually weaker than Northern tea. 'Trà chanh' (lemon tea) has become a symbol of youth gathering. 'Hội trà chanh' refers to a group of friends who meet to gossip. When serving tea to elders, always use both hands to show respect. The youngest person usually pours the tea for everyone else.
The 'Free' Tea
In many Southern restaurants, a glass of 'trà đá' is provided for free. Don't be surprised if it's placed on your table without you asking!
Caffeine Kick
Traditional Vietnamese green tea is very strong. If you aren't used to it, drink slowly to avoid a 'tea drunk' feeling (say trà).
