Yeah, probably order a Frog Quarter Pounder with french Fries.....

Believe it or not, I counted 12 golden arch establishments just in the north west part of Hong Kong Island. Never went to the Eastern part of the city and couldn't be bothered to count them in Kowloon, Stanley or Aberdeen. I am proud to say that I never ate in any of them (it's nasty stuff anyway) but I did have a lovely pizza at Pizza Hut (but only once).:daisy:

New Years Meal
 

Back on the subject of chinese cuisine, this is what was served for us an our works Chinese new year celebration.
It was a hard choice Roast Duck or Roast Pigeon, Hmmm I wonder?

Looks excellent Roy, hope your having a good time.

Any chance of sneaking in in your luggage?

yuk!!I could not eat anything that looks at me.

Pigeons Head...
 

...I think I'm right in saying that's supposed to be the best part (along with the claws)....you eat all the chewy bits first, then finish with the beak and toes. Nice and crunchy, like pork scratchings.

Never tried pidgeon, what's it like? Had the roast duck, and it's really good. Had roast suckling pig in Sardinia, which comes complete with head, and lots of crispy skin and that's fantastic. I believe they do it over at Alghero's near the Houghton Arms.
