Today we travel to Hong Kong and kick it with Mark Weins as he finally gets to visit the famous Yat Lok, giving the proprietors the chance to serve Mark a dish that they are quite well known for: Roast Goose. Roast duck is usually considered the more popular feathery friend to see the inside of an oven in Asia, and we all know how popular Peking Duck has become the world over, but Hongkongers really enjoy the larger bird… that being goose, of course. Roast Goose is so popular in Hong Kong that people often favour particular restaurants over others, preferring an individual and unique marinade or method of roasting. The general trend is to marinade only the plumpest and biggest birds in a soy and sesame oil sauce before hanging the birds above coal pits. The slow cooking process ensures juicy tenderness and a crispy, golden and crunchy skin. At Yat Lok, the only thing in the world that they really care about is making roast goose. Their dedication and fanaticism has made a Yat Lok roast goose the best in Hong Kong. And if you have the best roast goose in Hong Kong, then you pretty much have the best roast goose in the world. Yat Lok’s current owner didn’t start the restaurant. Rather it was his father who gave up his childhood dreams to settle down and start creating his version of the local delicacy. With the crispiest skin, a tasty but not-too-overpowering marinade, succulent flesh and thinnest layer of juicy fat, Yat Lok’s geese are the best in town. Yat Lok has such a good reputation that it even got a visit from celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain who said that the Roast Goose at Yak Lok is so good that it is worth the trip from anywhere in the world just to eat it… not too bad Yat Lok. We may not all be able to ‘pop into Yat Lok for the old bird’, but luckily for us we have the faithful Mark Weins to give us a rundown of the tastiest goose in town. Mark is an avid traveller and foodie, and you can give his YouTube channel a look here: https://www.youtube.com/user/migrationology You could also just really fall head-over-heels for the bloke and wander through his informative and tasty looking blog here: http://migrationology.com/ Make sure you take a look at other unique and local food hangouts all across the globe by visiting the FoodieHub channel on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFl6qnxDKT-jz30aKsDXjRg FoodieHub also has its own website, and it is here that we awarded Yat Lok the “Tastiest Bird” Award at the 2014 FoodieHub Awards.

Hong Kong is pretty much made up of people with Chinese ethnicity, so you can expect your usual Chinese fair, but keep a lookout for the following dishes: • Shrimp Dumplings: An iconic Hong Kong dim sum dish • Fish Balls: Made either cooked or raw, fish balls are consumed in Hong Kong as much as baguettes are in France (which is a lot, in case you were wondering) • Wontons: Crispy deep-fried, or dripping from a spicy soup, these little meat-filled pastry parcels are tummy pleasers! • Sweet & Sour Pork: Usually cooked in restaurants serving roast goose, marinated pork is roasted and/or fried and served with a sweet and sour sauce… but you all already know this. Sweet & Sour Pork is so famous it is served in almost every city in the developed world. • Milk Tea: Cold or warm milk tea is a Hong Kong favourite, and sago balls are sometimes added to give it that bubble effect.
