The most exciting thing for me when i visit a new country is trying new food and drink.
Hong Kong doesnt dissapoint
Because of its Poistion in asia and its deep trading history, combined with the prosperity of the british empire, Hong Kong has absorbed culinary influences from across the world.
cantonese, thai, chinese, indian, japanese, british, and mongolian food are all readily available in restaurants in Hong Kong. You can also get some odd fusions of foods...
 | |||||||
| Hong Kong style french toast- 'toast slathered with peanut butter or kaya jam, soaked in egg batter, fried in butter and served with still more butter and lots of syrup' (sounds scottish to me) |
Or maybe you fancy a nice bowl of snake soup?
 |
| Apparently it tastes like chicken |
Which leads us nicely onto.....
 |
| Chicken feet. makes sense to me, why waste parts of an animal that can be eaten? |
and finally STINKY TOFU
 | |||||
| Tofu that has started to ferment, giving off ultimate stinkyness. apparently popular. I think this is way more gross than chicken feet, but i'd probably still give it a go. |
But if all of this is just a tad too adventurous for you there some other delicious treats for the taste buds available
maybe a top ten foods to eat or restaurants could be a good thing to go into the guide for tourists...
