This shop has become quite popular lately,
I paid a visit when I had free time,
At the start of Minsheng Road,
Above Dongyang Notary, look up and see.

Many varieties to choose from,
No wonder they call it Tangyuan Town,
Rumor has it the menu will expand,
So there's no business card around.

A special feature is the hot pot,
With chocolate flavor quite fragrant,
But this time I didn't order it,
Just called for one bowl to taste.

The flavor was decent, not bad,
The price of twenty isn't too steep,
Consider it for a dessert treat,
A nice new place to keep.
