EGG WAFFLE
Where to Eat It: Hong Kong
Egg waffles (gai daan jai in Cantonese) first appeared on the streets of Hong Kong in the 1950s, and they’ve been a popular snack ever since. Their unique look is produced by cooking an eggy batter between two metal plates of semi-spherical cells over an open flame or electrical heater. Egg waffles are best eaten hot off the griddle, and usually enjoyed plain, though you can find spots that will add fruit or chocolate. Some vendors even have different flavors of batter, such as chocolate, green tea, or ginger.
