AFTER years of longing for tang yuan, contractor Mohamad Aiman Zulkiflee beamed with joy when he got to savour the dessert again at the Titi Papan Chinese Mosque in Jalan Burma, George Town, Penang.

The 43-year-old Chinese Muslim said his mother used to make these rice balls at home but after she passed away six years ago, he stopped eating the treat.
