The shop sells nearly 3,000 fragrant fried buns and donuts a day. The daughter has taken over the business and created many more "trendy" dishes.

Located on Rach Bung Binh Street, District 3, Ho Chi Minh City, Ms. Hoa's fried dumpling and fried dough stall is called "Tan Dinh Fried Dumpling". It turns out that Ms. Hoa's family has been selling on the side of Tan Dinh Church since the first days, so she named her fried dumpling and fried dough stall that way. After many times of moving locations, Ms. Hoa still decided to keep that name because it is the brand that has been with her for the past 34 years.

Dumpling shop, fried dough sticks with coconut oil, accept the cost but the cakes are more delicious

Ms. Hoa's bakery started in 1990. Until now, even though she is 63 years old, she still keeps making dumplings and fried dough because this is the place that has supported her family for many years. When visiting Ms. Hoa's shop, customers and shippers come in to buy in droves. Inside the shop, people are making dumplings, frying dumplings, and serving dumplings to customers, all the steps are happening smoothly.

Ms. Hoa's dumpling and donut shop is always crowded with customers.

Every day, Ms. Hoa wakes up at 3 am to prepare ingredients, make dough, and make the filling. The shop opens at 6 am to serve customers who buy to take to work and sells until 7 pm or until the cakes run out. It is hard work, but seeing customers enjoy the food is the motivation for Ms. Hoa to continue with the job.

Until now, Ms. Hoa still directly prepares and makes delicious cakes.

When asked why she chose to sell fried bags, she told me that she used to deliver coal. Among her customers was a Chinese man who lived in the big market, and she became close friends with him after delivering coal many times. Seeing how hard it was for her to deliver coal, he passed on the job to her. That fate has stuck with Hoa until now.

Also because she values ​​the job that helps her earn a living, the job that helps her support her family, Ms. Hoa is always careful in every step of making the cake. She even decided to choose coconut oil to fry the cake instead of regular cooking oil. A large can of coconut oil is also a few hundred thousand more expensive than other types of oil, but in return, the cakes fried with coconut oil have a very different delicious flavor. Just standing next to the pan of oil, you can smell the fragrant oil, so the cakes also have an attractive aroma.

The cakes are fried in coconut oil so they have a distinct delicious taste.

Bao buns are the best-selling item in Ms. Hoa's shop. She sells more than 2,000 of them each day. Adding other types of cakes such as fried dough sticks, fried dough sticks, etc., Ms. Hoa's shop sells nearly 3,000 each day. During the week, her shop usually sells the most because office workers buy a lot.

Even though it's fried, the cake is very dry and not greasy.

When daughters take over, "trendy" cakes are born

Ms. Hoai, Ms. Hoa’s daughter, is the one who follows in her mother’s footsteps in baking. Not only does she help her mother make cakes, Ms. Hoa also contributes to bringing new types of cakes to keep up with market trends.

Besides traditional ingredients such as quail eggs, meat mixed with wood ear mushrooms... there is also cheese.

The most prominent dish of Ms. Hoa's shop is the steamed bun, besides the traditional steamed bun with quail eggs, the steamed bun with pate and quail eggs, there is also a small steamed bun with 2 quail eggs and 1 salted egg. This is also the type of steamed bun that Ms. Hoai suggested her mother make to attract more customers. Indeed, this is the type of bun that customers prefer the most. The small fried steamed bun has meat, wood ear mushrooms, jicama (cassava) inside, along with 2 quail eggs and 1 small salted egg, all wrapped up neatly.

The cake is small but the filling is very good.

The price for such a full bun is only 10,000 VND. The remaining buns are only 6,000-7,000 VND. Ms. Hoa said that when she first started selling, the quail egg buns were only 2,000 VND. After 34 years, she has not raised the price too much, mainly because she wants customers to eat delicious buns.

Only 6,000 - 10,000 VND for a full dumpling.

Besides the dumplings with salted eggs, Ms. Hoai and her mother also make new cakes such as durian cadé peppermint cake, or recently, pulled cheese peppermint cake. The cheese peppermint cake costs only 15,000 VND but uses high-quality Australian cheese, the inside is soaked with cheese, and many diners have to nod that it is "much better than the hot trend cheese coin cake".

The cheese donut is also filled with filling.

In addition, durian cade cake is also a favorite dish of many people.

It can be seen that the transfer from one generation to the next not only helps maintain the family's traditional brand but also helps create more trendy dishes. From there, the bakery can reach more customers, that is the genius.
