"What is the name of the dessert? it has a beautiful colour and a round shapes". madam Yi asking me. all of the eyes looking at me to wait for the explanation.
"Alright. this dessert name is Klepon. it's a dessert from a far away place. my grandpa used to make this one when I'm craving for something sweet when i was still a kid".
"The pink colour is from the wild berries i bought from Uncle Lou shop. you can try it now before the food getting any colder. it's better to eat when it's still warm".
all of them picking up their chopsticks and took a piece of the Klepon.
"How to eat this? is there a correct way?". Uncle Zi Wu asking me before eating.
"Oh, right! try to eat it in one bite. to prevent the filling to spill".
after i explained it, they ate the Klepon in one bite. i could see their expression changing into a surprise after they took a bite.
most of them is saying "Mm!" or "Mhh!?" by surprise.
"What is this! i thought this one is have a salt taste, but there's a filling inside.. and this is..".
"Hmm.. i think it's the Palm sugar you bought from my store a couple days ago.. right?". said Uncle Lou guessing the filling.
"Yes. you are right, Uncle Lou". i smile
"I use a palm sugar to make it sweet, but not too sweet. well, you can put some nuts inside it as well, but it's better to have something sweet as the filling, since the dough is salty".
"This is delicious, Young man". Madam Wu praises me. the other nodded their heads in agreement.
"You can even sell this dessert in my restaurant, Young man". says Uncle Zi Wu.
"Do you want to sell this dessert here, in my restaurant, Young man?". Uncle Zi Wu asking me seriously, since he put down his chopstick.
"Well, i don't mind selling this dessert here. but, can i have around 10 percent of profits for this dessert?". i asked him.
Uncle Zi Wu looks confused, but soon, he showing his smile towards me.
"Alright! let's do that".
"Congratulations, Young man". Madam Wu and the others congratulate me.
"Alright then. i will teach your cook how to make this dessert, later".
