In the middle of Thao Dien area (Thu Duc City, Ho Chi Minh City) full of restaurants, cafes, luxury villas, perhaps no one dares to open a shop. Balut like Pham Kim Tinh (40 years old, from Dong Nai). Up to now, Ms. Tinh’s Kim Thao duck egg shop has been in business for 12 years and is considered one of the few oldest shops selling duck eggs in Saigon.
The shop is open from 15:00 to 23:00 every day, so the whole stage of boiling eggs, preparing accompanying ingredients is started at 8 am and must be completed before 3 pm. Around 18-19h, about 20 small tables at the shop were full. The car park takes advantage of the space in front of the shop which is always in a state of jostling and overloading.

The price of duck eggs at the shop is 12 thousand/egg, which is quite high compared to the common ground. However, each day the shop can sell more than 1,000 eggs, sometimes up to more than 3,000 eggs.
It’s just expensive, the seats are inconvenient, but many diners still wait patiently. Most people come to the shop because they are “addicted” to the special egg flavor, which is better than other places. Others came because they were curious, wanted to try to experience the feeling of eating at Kim Thao, what is so strange that it is so famous.

The specialty of the restaurant is the dish of duck eggs served with laksa leaves, chili salt, pepper, and lemon fish sauce. It sounds simple, but Ms. Tinh said that each stalk of vegetable and piece of chili is taken care of very carefully.

At the same time, she combined many more recipes for boiling eggs that she had learned to raise the level of her own unmistakable dish.
How to start a business with 1-0-2
The start-up path of the owner of the duck egg shop was also not smooth. After getting married, Ms. Tinh moved to Ho Chi Minh City to live and was assigned by her husband’s family in Thu Duc City to open a business shop.
Wanting to follow in the footsteps of her parents in the countryside, she decided to open a shop selling duck seeds. However, the initial work was not really easy. The shop opened on Xuan Thuy Street at that time was not known to many people, every day Ms. Tinh could only sell a few dozen eggs, forcing her and her husband to find a more effective business method.

At that time, the roads were difficult to travel far from the center, taxis and motorbike taxis were not as popular as they are now. By the way, having a car in the house, Ms. Tinh ventured to open a free shuttle service. Thanks to this unique method, more and more customers know about Kim Thao’s restaurant. Many curious people had to come to the place to find out the truth about “the best restaurant in Saigon”.
Later, due to the process of picking up guests, Tinh’s husband saw that many people expressed their desire to learn to drive, so the owner “quickly” stopped taking the shuttle and switched to teaching driving for free. .
It was only when the shop became as famous as it is now and the customers were also increasing day by day that Tinh’s family stopped providing driving lessons to focus on doing business.
After more than 10 years of opening the restaurant, Ms. Tinh concluded that, in addition to the quality of the food, it is the special services that have made the name of Kim Thao’s restaurant.
