The shop was authentic to serve it with a stone bowl like below;

When I cleared our table,  I brought the bowls one by one for my wife as well, because they are very heavy.

I said that “Thank you for the dish” to the shop staff when bringing it first.

The staff had said “Thank you” administratively first. But at second, he looked at me and said it with a bright smile.

My NLP teacher mentioned many people got rare words to recognize. So people can fill their self-esteem with some words to reward for nothing special.

I will tell some words to praise, appreciate and reward people when getting these feelings.
