      Chinese friends told me BBQ crayfrish, shrimp, starfish, scorpions, octopus, stinky egg, stinky tofu's like standard HK street food. Cheap. You guys ate so classy. I'm in culture shock. The egg thing use to be popular around the USA, Pillsbury. But it's made with poppy seeds in the crust and topped with tomato. Nice video :)

      @RBLavender 7 років тому +2

      starfish and scorpions are definitely not standard HK street food. no one eats these in hk lol. it's easier to find insects sold as street food in mainland china though.
      standard HK street food are more like curry fishballs, siumai, pig intestines, hk style waffles, hk egg pancakes, squid, stinky tofu, beef balls (not the literal cow balls lol), sausages, squid balls etc.

      @tielsandlorri 7 років тому +1

      Alicia Seecharan I live in HK and I've never seen scorpions or starfish sold as snacks/food... but I've seen them everywhere in mainland China especially in Beijing. Fish balls, siu mai and cow intestines are common HK food though and I highly recommend it cause it's good stuff👍👍

    This video remind me of my holiday to Hong Kong last year, I feel in love with the place and long to go back. Food was amazing, the sights, atmosphere was like nothing iv'e seen before.
    Thank you for this video guys, can't wait for part 2!

    is the paper cake like what we call angel food cake in USA? also, I like looking up conversion of HK to US dollar.... the $12hk tofu about $1.50 USA, the $32hk caviar dish about$4.50, the tarts about $0.40US. the food in sticks $2hk is only a quarter in US dollar! OMG that's​ crazy awesome! in case anyone else curious.

    • @belaralia
      @belaralia 7 років тому

      I wish I could answer this, but I haven't eaten angel's food cake in a long time. I think it would be very similiar. If you live near a Chinese bakery, you should be able to find it easily.

    • @donnaflora227
      @donnaflora227 7 років тому +2

      Scarlett Cooper for me angel food cake has a more denser, sweeter taste. This cake however is softer with a delicate taste. pretty much just a spongecake in cupcake form :-)

    • @Hunzh647
      @Hunzh647 7 років тому

      cheap for you but Hong Kong some people make very little money.

    • @fastbuckwu
      @fastbuckwu 7 років тому +1

      yes pretty much, it's very similar to what we call angel food cake in the US. this paper cake is very light and not super sweet, just a little sweet.

  • @fasteddie9970
    @fasteddie9970 7 років тому +10

    Great video boys! I find stinky tofu to be like durian. Its bark is worse than its bite and a deep appreciation needs to be cultivated over time. Looking forward to part 2 and waiting for you and Satoshi to come visit Vancouver, B.C.!

  • @vaniacarvalho4225
    @vaniacarvalho4225 7 років тому +22

    The egg tart you tried really looked like a portuguese pastry named "pastel de Nata" :D

    • @offthesidelines
      @offthesidelines 7 років тому +2

      I love both Chinese and Portuguese egg tarts but I find the pasteis to usually be more caramel tasting (obviously because of the caramelized/slightly burnt top) and creamy. Having said that, pasteis can also be found almost everywhere now - including China. Even Chinese egg tarts can easily be found anywhere that has a Chinese population.

    • @offthesidelines
      @offthesidelines 7 років тому +3

      curiouslysimple I know some Chinese pastry stores where I live (in Montreal) that sell both Chinese and what they call "Portuguese" egg tarts. More often than not their Portuguese egg tarts are basically just the exact recipe they use for the Chinese ones but in a flaky shell and occasionally they'll slightly burn the top. I think this is what they're also doing in this video. (They're delicious too but they're still not quite like the actual pasteis that you can get from a Portuguese bakery.)

    • @offthesidelines
      @offthesidelines 7 років тому

      curiouslysimple i only meant to explain why they were possibly called that way and my personal observations. my apologies if it seemed like i was criticizing your reply!

    Street food is so fun! It's a good way to enjoy something like a local. Looks like you had a good time with Laurence (Hi Laurence!). Like Vinn, I like the paper cupcake. I've never had a dry one though. The ones I've had are very moist and so fluffy! Like eating a cloud. Looking forward to more of your HK vids!
