Yes, that is a tin of condensed milk sitting there beside the cup of black coffee. Usually a Lao coffee with milk arrives with an inch of condensed milk already waiting in the bottom of the cup. At this riverside café, however, the proprietors are trusting enough to allow people like me to administer their own condensed milk from the tin. Note that you can choose whether to add powdered milk to your coffee or condensed milk.

I need me some o' that Lao style coffee to get me through the next 25 King Lear essays. As flies to wanton boys are we teachers to the crushing indifference of the HSC treadmill ...
'Tis enough to make me set up my own school somewhere in Laos - no exams, just the odd barista workshop between extended lunch-breaks.
mitziii! the people want you here. ditch the five-act wonders for the endless sashay that is luang prabang. school's out practically all the time!
