Upstairs, ring the bell — Emme is upstairs at 70 Ham Nghi: take the internal stairs, find the dark-green door with no sign and ring the bell — don't look for a ground-floor front.
It closes at midnight — Emme runs 18:00–00:00 daily — a bar for the early and middle evening, not an all-night stop. Plan to its rhythm.
Read the menu cover — Each menu edition carries a different Tin poem on its cover. Order by the chapter and read the poem — that is how the bar wants to be started.
