More people gave high scores and shouted "delicious!" ”
Mr. Lian, a 29-year-old stall owner, used to run snack businesses in various parts of the mainland before learning Xi plum blossom cake making skills with his wife's friend. This year, because my father was diagnosed with throat cancer, I decided to return to Taiwan to take care of my father. Even the boss felt, "Taiwan's catering market is generally low-pay, decided to start his own business, opened for half a month did not expect to become popular, the future plans to open to join, so that more people can eat mainland snacks, thank you for liking."
