The e-mail request came in to Ekiben restaurant in Baltimore late on a Thursday afternoon. The man, Brandon Jones was writing for his mother-in-law, who loved the dish. He explained that she was now in the final stages of lung cancer at her home in Vermont and that he was hoping to get the recipe to make it for her there.

Steve Chu, one of the Asian fusion restaurant's co-owners, read the e-mail and quickly replied with another suggestion. “Thanks for reaching out,” he wrote. “We'd like to meet you in Vermont and make it fresh for you.”

For the past six years, every time Brandon's mother-in-law visited Baltimore, the first place she wanted to go was Ekiben so she could order that dish. “She had always told us, ‘When I'm on my deathbed, I want to have that broccoli（花椰菜）,’” recalls Brandon's wife, Rina Jones.

That Friday after work, a day after receiving Brandon's e-mail, Chu prepared all the food ingredients（原料）and then headed for Vermont with his business partner and an employee. They stayed overnight in an Airbnb rental and drove the next day to where Rina's mother lived. After cooking and boxing everything up, they knocked on their customer's door.

“As soon as she opened the door, she recognized the amazing smell,” Brandon says.

Rina says her mother also recognized Chu and his coworkers. “My mom kept saying, ‘You drove all the way up here to cook for me?’ She was so happy and touched to have that broccoli.”

“It was an honor to help make the family's wishes come true,” Chu says. “There was a lot of good, positive energy in doing this.” Rina was happy that her mother was able to enjoy her beloved broccoli with a side order of excellent kindness one last time. “My mom cried later about their generosity, and so did I,” Rina says. “I'll carry that positive memory with me always.”
