The little orange and its courtyard

Littlecam means "the little orange" — and the orange is the café's logo: a round orange disc hanging right at the gate of 115/3 Trần Quốc Thảo. There is no fancy logo file; the mark is a hand-drawn orange printed on the menu boards and the wall sign.

The café lives in the courtyard of an old District 3 house — a big tree canopy, red flags with gold stars strung overhead, a yellow-green striped awning, a long wooden counter and low stools. Its slogan is "talktogether": sit down, and the stories will come. The Lê Thị Riêng branch has closed for good, so Trần Quốc Thảo is now the flagship courtyard — a morning meeting place for students, friends, tourists and dates.
