Au Lac's extensive menu and soothing courtyard setting offers an appealing lunch locale or tea-and-cake pit stop. Housed in a French villa opposite the Hotel Sofitel, this quaint cafe cultivates a colonial appeal. The kitchen deftly prepares food from around the world like sandwiches, pizzas, salads, pastas, burgers and, of course, Vietnamese standards. Those in need of frothy coffees will delight in the array of java favorites such as cappuccinos, mochas and lattes.
