Red bean soup / 紅豆湯圓


去逛羅東夜市,進夜市前在中正路上瞥見一家傳統的紅豆湯圓,很受它古典的風格吸引。店裡有轟轟的煮紅豆火爐聲,老闆有點年紀,昏黃的燈光下人潮沒有停過,一整碗紅豆湯圓表面浮滿了湯圓,甜蜜的味道暖到心頭裡。

I spot a traditional shop on the corner of Zhong-zhen Rd. before heading into Luo-dong Night Market. It has the classic charm that draws me to it. The shop is run by an old man with his wife, filled with the rumbling noise of the stove on which red beans are being constantly cooked. Though the shop is not as crowded as the night market,  customers stream in, waiting to be warmed with a bowl of red bean soup full of tang-yuan on the surface in winter.
