In Âu Lạc (Vietnam) in the New Year, we crack these melon seeds, and we paint them red, tint them red for luck. Because of happy New Year, everything [is] red.

What tea is this? Lotus tea? (This tea is from the Central Region.) (It’s Móc Câu tea from the Central Region.) (It’s green tea, Master.) (Green tea mixed with lotus seeds.) OK.

Banana candies. (From the Central region.) All these are from Central Âu Lạc (Vietnam). This is banana. (Banana.) Yeah. And sugar, I guess. Or not sugar. [It] depends on how sweet. Open it all. Oh, these are very sweet. Whoa! Wow, wow, wow! Yeah, I remember all this. All this is from where I was born. (These are from Quảng Ngãi.) Yeah. Quảng Ngãi, where I was born. Wow!

Today all the shops are open for us, for the visitors. Free of charge. Eat anything you want; take anything you want. Whatever they want, please pack it. And we’ll pay them later.

This is? (Eastern beauty tea.) Just to smell, it already feels beautiful. I feel beautiful already. They say [when] you drink this kind of tea, it doesn’t hurt your stomach. Because it’s very mild, very mellow.

(This is sugar and nuts?) Sugar and nuts, yes. Black sugar, and they cooked it into caramel and let it cool, and it becomes hard. (And make it into a block, a whole block so you can shave it.) Yes. This is a very old tradition. (I can imagine.) You hardly can find it, even in Âu Lạc (Vietnam). So, try it, sir, try. (This is Vietnamese.) Sorry, Taiwan (Formosa). (Taiwan.) In Âu Lạc (Vietnam), we do similar also. […]
