意思
A standard hot beverage.
文化背景
Coffee is often served with a side of hot tea and sometimes 'pa-tong-ko' (fried dough sticks). The 'baguette' (khao jee) is the most common accompaniment to hot coffee in Laos, a remnant of French influence. This region is the coffee capital. 'Ka-fe hon' here is often Arabica, whereas the rest of the country drinks Robusta. It is polite to wait for the eldest person to take the first sip of their hot coffee during a morning gathering.
Free Tea
Don't be surprised if you get a glass of tea with your hot coffee; it's free and meant for cleansing the palate.
Sugar Alert
Lao coffee is notoriously sweet. If you don't like sugar, say 'bor sai nam tan' immediately.

The Glass Handle
Traditional hot coffee is served in a glass without a handle. Hold it by the rim to avoid burning your fingers.
Morning Only
Ordering 'ka-fe hon' after 2 PM might mark you as a tourist, as locals rarely drink it late.
