Q: Do you drink more tea now?
Time for another Q and A!
Beautiful packaging.
A: Yes, but not as much as you would assume. What’s that mean? Click here to find out.
Asian Pears
It turns out I really love Asian Pears. In Asian Pears in the Minnehap look more like pears and less like apples. Here at our market, they look more like apples and less like pears. Our friend calls them Papples, even though we know the correct name, we still call them Papples.
If only I had some brie cheese to eat with these little juicy papples.
Grilled Chicken Wing
Yum.
Here on Lamma, you can eat pretty well.
Another weekend, another food find. When things get busy, there are plenty of grilled food stands that pop up. Remember I mentioned you can get delicious grilled pineapple here on Hung Shing Ye Beach? My fella picked up this grilled gem for me at that same stand to keep my hunger at bay until dinner time.
$14 HK ($1.80 USD) can get you this smoky, juicy, crispy little snack. I would recommend it to anyone passing by, if their nose hasn’t led them there already.

One thing that I’ve noticed is that sometimes people double up their words, and it’s cute. Similar to how English speakers speak to little kids and say things such as, “Ok, we are going bye-bye now”, or “Do you need to go wee-wee?” It’s just cute.
Cinco de Mayo
If I were actually in Minnesota, you might be able to find me doing either or all of these things:
- Getting fat and sassy while eating Lupitas at Pepitos
- Holding a large Margarita from Pancho Villa
- Eating Tacos from Taqueria La Hacienda
- Covering everything in queso from Acapulco
So, what did I eat today?

Macau eats.
Sweet Monaka.
Sweet Monaka,
Wiki tells me that you used to be a sweet mochi wafer dessert filled with sweet azuki beans. I think I would like you that way, but I also like you the way you are. A weird, waffle-on-the-outside, chocolate covered ice cream treat. Yes, I like you the way you are.
Thanks for being so cool.*
Sincerely,
Nicole
*I am exhausted from work. This is the best I can do today.
