Summarized by durumis AI

  • King Kong Mart in Phu Quoc sells a variety of products at affordable prices, and is especially recommended for those who want to taste fresh fruits.
  • SIM COFFEE, located across from King Kong Mart, is a cozy cafe that is good for a short break, but the drinks are ordinary and it can be hard to feel cool on hot days.
  • If you want to enjoy a refreshing drink and atmosphere in Phu Quoc, I recommend Anba Cafe, located 10 minutes away from King Kong Mart.

Kingkong Mart

After finishing the morning spa at Laon Spa,
they took us to Kingkong Mart with their free shuttle service.
We got in the car with other team members who finished massage at the same time, and they dropped us off first because we were closer.

Before entering Kingkong Mart, the security guard(?) at the front carefully ties your bags with cable ties.
It seems like they have a policy that you can't enter unless your bags are tied with cable ties, so they can check if anything has been stolen.
So, take out your wallet in advance and put it somewhere other than your bag! Don't forget!
When you checkout and leave, they provide scissors at the entrance to cut off the ties that were tied.



There are more items than expected, such as vegetables and fruits corner, frozen meat corner, spice corner, snack corner, clothing corner, etc., so it was fun to look around.

Among them, we bought two mangoes as a taste test.

"We can cut the fruit for you"
It was written like that, so we chose one mango and asked the staff to cut it for us.


They cut it beautifully as shown below, (I already ate some of it, haha)
The price for one mango was 38000 dong = about 1500 won in Korean money. It was very cheap!

The 38000 dong one had a bit of a sour taste, it was moderately sweet, moderately firm, and had a nice chewiness. The quantity was also large!

After eating that, it was so delicious,
I wondered how delicious the 59000 dong (2900 won) one next to it would be, so I bought it later, lol.


This one was sweeter, creamier, and less sour. If you're only going to eat one, I would recommend this 59000 dong one...!
It really felt like eating a sweet, high-quality mango! It tasted like something you could only eat here.

The price is fixed, and they don't weigh it, so you won't get scammed.


I bought other delicious-looking snacks, coconut peanuts, and tubes, but I didn't take pictures. ㅎㅎ
It would be a good place to buy souvenirs before going back to Korea.
I recommend checking out Kingkong Mart, it's fun to browse around!

SIM COFFEE

A cafe right across from Kingkong Mart.
I wasn't sure whether to go in or not because there weren't many reviews, but it was so hot that I went in to sit for a while.




When you go inside, there is a small pond in the middle, with tables and chairs arranged in a circle around it.


There are also seats with a bartender.
It would be nice to have a drink here in the evening.



It feels like a cafe in a cozy jungle. ㅎㅎ




There is a ceiling fan on the ceiling,
but it wasn't actually cool enough on a very hot day, just one ceiling fan,,, ㅎㅎ It was a bit hot.



I ordered a dragon fruit juice and a latte.
It looked very delicious! but it was bland. ㅎㅎ The latte was just so-so.

Overall, the pretty atmosphere and the good location across from Kingkong Mart were nice,
but the drinks were average and it was a bit hot, so I would recommend it for people who want to take a break for a while,
but if you want to enjoy a good drink and the atmosphere, I recommend Anba Cafe, which is about a 10-minute walk from Kingkong Mart.
