今天晚上我吃了第一个月饼。

This weekend is the celebration of the mid-Autumn festival (中秋节) in China. We celebrated by eating a mooncake and drinking oolong tea. The cake itself was filled with lotus paste (莲蓉月饼). I was advised to nibble the cake rather than eat it in one mouthfull; advice I’d recommend to anyone. The cake was quite heavy and despite the nice taste left my mouth feeling dry. A pot of oolong tea (乌龙茶) soon took care of that.
