It's true. I can't say it enough. Some uber-delicious items that didn't make it into the previous post:
1. The piggy bun. A cheap white roll, crispy on the outside, cut open, toasted, slathered in butter and condensed milk. (That's right, condensed milk. Read more about why condensed milk is awesome here.) Diner fare, served 24/7, less than a buck, and oh, so tasty.
2. BBQ pork "sandwich." We got this sandwich at a pretty generic looking lunch place in the shopping center at IFC1. Two pieces of spongy "bread," with succulent BBQ pork and pickles in between. An actual slice (well two, plus fillings) of heaven.
3. Shanghai style soup dumplings. Steamed dumplings filled with piping hot soup and pork. My favorite were served with a mild vinegar for dipping and slices of fresh ginger. Yum.
4. "Little eggs." A treat sold from street-side carts, made with a machine akin to an oversize waffle iron and similar batter, except that instead of the customary concave squares you get crispy, hollow globes. Totally worth spoiling your fancy lunch for.
Damn! When can we go back to Hong Kong to eat more?!
