Asian Buffet (specifically, the red bean flower bun in the back)
Status: Restaurant (Tomi's Buffet)
Satisfaction: 10.
Associated with: The Bean Trees, by Barbara Kingsolver
The red bean flower bun sometimes comes in lotus fillings, too--hence the thoughts flit to Lotus Blossum, the unfortunate concubine of one Wang Lung in The Bean Trees. Long story short, lots of disturbing age differences in relations and wonky Chinese-translated names for characters totals up to a pink-colored, artificially-flavored lotus bun.
