While it is difficult to identify one signature Hong Kong dish, what is easy to agree upon is that Hong Kong people love good food. Hong Kong, due to its proximity to Guangzhou (Canton), shows a Cantonese influence and sensibility when it comes to food. There is a saying that the Cantonese will "eat anything with four legs except a table, and anything with wings except an airplane"! Some menu items (like chicken feet, jellyfish, snake) sound bizarre, but they reflect a culinary wisdom and history that dates back to imperial times, and you can be assured that they have stood the test of time because of their yumminess! I will share my Hong Kong food love soon. I promise....In the meantime, here are a few pics; click on the slideshow for a larger captioned version.
