Ngau Kee Food Cafe is an old school, family-run Hong Kong-style restaurant well known in the neighborhood for good, inexpensive, homey Cantonese food. Unfortunately, Ngau Kee's landlord doesn't share the same appreciation for awesome food, and the restaurant is closing this Sunday, April 21.
If you're like me and will eat pretty much anything flavored with black sesame, then the hot black sesame paste from Yat Yat Sweet is for you. It's not a paste so much as a thick soup/liquidy pudding that coats your innards with sweet black sesame.
1966. The year that changed the world of snacking forever. The year...that Pocky was born. Other chocolate-covered biscuit sticks don't stand a chance against Pocky.
Boiled Coke with ginger and lemon started off as a popular cold remedy in Hong Kong, but now it's a popular anytime drink that's found at pretty much all Hong Kong diners. As a first-time, not sick drinker, I found it surprisingly pleasant. The cold and fizzy are gone, but you're left with sweet, spicy, a little tart, a smidge medicinal—all things that would feel restorative on a cold day or in a stream of warmth going down a sore throat.

For a limited time, Burger King Japan is offering a special burger meant to be eaten while watching anime. It consists of a grilled patty, a sesame seed bun, and...that's it.
Yesterday, Canadian pizza chain Boston Pizza announced a few fake pizza-fied items for April Fool's Day, along with one real one: Pizzaburgers, burger-stuffed pizza pockets.
Available for a limited time at McDonald's China is the German Sausage Double Beef Burger featuring two beef patties, two sausages, and mustard.
Fluffy egg sandwiches, peanut butter-stuffed French toast, and toast topped with peanut butter and condensed milk = my breakfast of champions.
In addition to the standard apple pie, McDonald's in Hong Kong also serves a red bean pie. I had to try it.
