The GRANDMUM story — grandma's jazz garden

A vinyl record, an alley garden, and a bar that only opens in daylight.

GRANDMUM is a cafe for vinyl lovers: the needle drops at 10 in the morning and lifts at 5 in the afternoon. In between is the Tan Dinh alley garden — green plants, wooden chairs, and coffees brewed like tracks on a record side.

Step inside and it's grandma's living room: old wooden chairs, framed paintings, burlap coasters — visitors' real photos show exactly that room, with basque cheesecake, a red berry drink and iced coffee on the dark wood table. Every material here is honest: kraft paper, woven bamboo, wood, ceramic, burlap — nothing glossy.

And then there's the omakase — the format for those who listen to the whole record side: FIRST /pure/, SECOND /traditional/, THIRD /creative/, DESSERT /seasonal/, and SECRET /still or boozy/ — the last course only for the curious. The omakase price is unpublished: ask your barista.
