McDonald's     麥當勞  

When I saw the promotion for these black and white burgers, I just couldn't wait.

In China, they served these Black and White burgers before but they were mini ones and each box had a mini black burger and a mini white burger, but in Hong Kong McDonald's are smart because the burgers are standard sizes so you have to go again to try the other one.

The new series are quite Taiwanese style because of the Taiwanese pearls, but the burgers themselves were not that Asian because they contain mashed potato and lovely mushroom/truffle sauce.

As soon as they were launched I ordered the McDelivery because there would probably be a huge queue of curious people ordering the black and white burgers.

These burgers are the best burgers McDonald's has ever served in Hong Kong because in other countries they have other creations which also taste good such as the Cordon Bleu that was served for a limited time in the UK.

As well as the burgers, they also had other new items which were: Smoky hot wings, Bubble tea and Black and white sundae which I ordered as well.

At the restaurant, it was an interesting sight, there were lots of rice options on the menu!!!

Since It's our last day of school, also a half day.
We decided to hang out for a while before heading back home.The most satisfying Mcflurry topping is of course everyone's favourite "Oreo cookie"
The Mcflurry is as awesome as before! Quite refreshing and valuable I guess.
Although the quality and quantity is kept the same, the price has inflated alot!!

Sometimes, you need a fresh cup of icecream to keep you awake for the rest of the day :-)

On the happy meal menu, there is a choice of fish burger, chicken nuggets, beef burger or hamburger along with small fries or sweet corn.
For drinks there are: Ribena, Qoo Soy milk, Minute maid orange juice, soft drinks and hot chocolate.
I was quite content with the burger choices because I usually order the fish burger or the hamburger anyway.
I prefer the kid’s meals because the portion of fries is smaller and there are more choices for drinks.
Although the kid’s meal are cheap, sometimes the extra value meals can be cheaper, especially when the filet-o-fish is on promotion for $20 and on the Happy meal set it cost $23.8.

So glad that McD's Shake Shake seasoning are back, by that I mean the condiment for the fries and not the four Seasons’.
Anyway, this year there are three flavours: Seaweed, Salt and pepper crab, Honey BBQ.
Usually each flavour is introduced a period after each other where you can choose any one of the flavours subject to it being launched and being available.
This year, each flavour is available for a certain time only and launched separately too.
The first flavour launched was the Seaweed, which seems the same as last year except the name is slightly different in Chinese.
The Chinese for it is called Jan Mei Ji Choi and last year it was just plain Ji Choi.

This year I only wanted to try the Salt and pepper crab seasoning, the other two I have tried and the same as last years.

The only advantage of having one flavour available at a time saves time for people who get to the ordering stage and cant decide which flavour to get and holding up the queue!!

McD’s could foresee their Shake Shake seasoning was a must have that they have been slightly crafty this year.
The seasoning used to be free with any extra value meal, but this year you have to order a Large sized extra value meal to get free seasoning or pay $2 for the seasoning.
I paid $2 for the seasoning because for the Large sized meal, there are more fries and the proportion of seasoning to the fries would be less. In the past it used to be one sachet of seasoning with a regular portion of fries.

Saw the advert so had to give it a try, just to see how chilli hot and numbing they are.
From the advert, it has bits of chili in the nuggets, and on the actual nuggets the chicken patty inside is slightly pinkish.

With all Mcdonalds ads, I usually expect a visual difference between the actual product and the advertised product.

Anyway the chilli nugget tastes like grilled chicken burger that McDonalds also do, which is also has chilli powder in it too, but with a crunchy coating. The intensity of the chilli is acceptable.
