00:00Who doesn't want to be lucky?

00:03That's why most of us,

00:05whenever we celebrate the new year,

00:08we eat something to be lucky.

00:13Set aside your worries for 2025

00:16because the real victory is in the dumplings.

00:23My darlings,

00:24the delicious and authentic dumplings

00:28can be found here in Taguig

00:30from the kitchen of the pure Chinese national,

00:34Tony.

00:35And if you think our food trip is in a 5-star hotel

00:38or one of the fancy restaurants in Taguig,

00:42calm down!

00:44Because the authentic dumplings

00:47can be found here on the side of the road.

00:50And what caught the eye of this vendor

00:53is that there's only one costume.

00:55This snack is from my hometown,

00:58Shandong province.

00:59It's very popular there

01:01and I think most Filipino people

01:04don't have the chance to taste it.

01:06I think that's a good idea.

01:08So we started this business.

01:10But Tony is not a real chef

01:14but an employee in a BPO company.

01:17When the pandemic hit,

01:19we worked from home.

01:22By that time,

01:23I already had the idea to start my own business.

01:26The recipe of the authentic dumplings

01:29was taught to him by a Chinese chef.

01:32Even the flavors are from China.

01:36Their dumplings have pork and green onion

01:39coated with steamed bun.

01:47And because our taste, Filipinos,

01:50is very unique and can be experimented by Filipinos,

01:54this is a good example of a viral dumpling.

01:58It's delicious, authentic,

02:00and the taste is unique.

02:04For 20 pesos, it is worth it.

02:07I'm just curious,

02:08that's why I bought it.

02:09It's our first time to taste it.

02:10It looks delicious.

02:12In this business,

02:13Tony's wife,

02:15whom he met on social media,

02:16is his wife.

02:18We met on Facebook.

02:20That's where our communication started.

02:23In 2018,

02:24their friendship flourished.

02:27That's why Tony immediately went to the Philippines.

02:31After 2 months of their return,

02:34he came back here.

02:36That's where we started

02:40to process our documents.

02:42Then he brought it to me.

02:44That's where we got married in China.

02:47The couple was led by a son

02:50who was later brought back here in the Philippines.

02:54Tony is a kind husband,

02:57a responsible father,

02:59and he takes care of us.

03:01Their story is also very serious.

03:04Their business also went through a tough trial.

03:08Firstly, it's the time allocation.

03:11I don't have enough time to do this business

03:14since I still have my full-time job.

03:16Secondly,

03:18I don't have a lot of money to put in as capital.

03:22When we started,

03:23we only had 500 grams.

03:25Then we ran out of 27 pieces.

03:28So we were able to arrange

03:30almost 1,000 pieces a day.

03:32This is where Tony thought

03:34of wearing a chef's uniform

03:37while selling dumplings in the market.

03:40Because of his attitude,

03:42you can really notice him.

03:43Because he's wearing a chef's uniform

03:45and a chef's toque.

03:47He was spotted by netizens

03:49and immediately went viral on social media.

03:51And he's from mainland China.

03:55My position,

03:57dumpling specialist.

03:59Actually, I'm very happy to see that people like it.

04:03By that time,

04:04we're actually still losing money.

04:06We didn't earn much money,

04:08but I'm very happy when people just taste.

04:11Wow, it's really amazing.

04:13But aside from the spices,

04:15the good news is

04:17his authentic Chinese dumplings

04:19are affordable.

04:22Only 20 pesos per piece.

04:25We give discount.

04:27Six pieces for 100 pesos.

04:30Hello, Ma'am Gaboso.

04:32Join me to sell dumplings in Balanque.

04:35Using his bicycle,

04:37the chef is already good at selling.

04:42But on the way to the market,

04:45the customers already stopped him to buy.

04:49Let's go, guys.

04:51Buy now.

04:52He's from China.

04:53Five pieces.

04:55Here, and he has a promotion.

04:57Buy five, get one free.

04:59What is that?

05:00I've never seen anything like that.

05:02It's delicious.

05:03It's a different taste.

05:04It's a different taste from what I eat here.

05:06Two.

05:07Two? Okay.

05:08Do you have Tagalog?

05:09We don't have Tagalog, Ma'am.

05:14Six, please, Ma'am.

05:17I'm waiting for him every day

05:19because his dumplings are delicious.

05:21Yeah.

05:22It's sold out already.

05:27Don't repeat his business

05:30because when it comes to taste,

05:32he's the winner.

05:34And because of his wife's help,

05:36his business is impressed.

05:42Because of their hardworking husband,

05:44his business fell sharply.

05:49The secret to a successful business is

05:53follow your dream and hard work.

05:57That's why this new year,

05:58be full with your dumplings

06:01and who knows,

06:02you might be the lucky one.

06:31Happy New Year!
