Sorry for the long hiatus on my blog posts! I have been
extremely busy in Hong Kong meeting friends, relatives, travelling, and
discovering possibilities of my future. I haven’t finished writing all about
Korea yet but I will skip around and write about Hong Kong because I just can’t
wait! I also just came back from Tokyo yesterday so you also might see some
posts on Japanese food here and there :P
So one of my favourite places to eat in other countries is
their McDonalds. I find the localized menu very interesting and it really
allows me to experience their culture just a little bit deeper through their local flavours and food.
The first thing I had at McDonalds in Hong Kong was their
new “Wasabi Filet- O-Fish”. It was a
no brainer for me to get this when I first saw it advertised because it sounded
so cool!
It looks like a typical McDonalds filet-o-fish burger except
instead of just regular tartar sauce, it is mixed with wasabi mayo. The end
product was an epic fish burger than gave me a punch in the nose every few
bites from the wasabi. I was in L-O-V-E.
:)
For anyone who likes apple pie and is currently residing in
Hong Kong or will visit sometime in the future, may I suggest the amazing fried apple pie?? It is nothing like
the apple pie in America/Canada because it is fried instead of baked (yes I
know... the calories =.= but oh well!). The end result is a crispy pie shell
surrounding a pile of hot apple goodness and you honestly can’t miss out on
this.
On another occasion, Trixie and I were visiting a prime
tourist attraction called “The Peak” where you get to see the amazing skyline
of Hong Kong. We stumbled across another McDonalds and decided to get some
ice-cream to cool down from the summer heat (and humidity). On the menu was green tea and red bean, black sesame, and green apple/raspberry/ or
chocolate swirl.
We both are black sesame lovers so we went with the Black Sesame Sundae (11 RMD/ ~$1.50
CAD)!
It obviously didn’t taste like high quality black sesame but
the flavour was definitely there. It went well with the ice-cream and we
gobbled it up in minutes. If you do get it, just make sure to check your teeth
afterwards. :P
Happy Eating!
