Over the moon with the world's first KFC mooncakes

A while ago, I spotted this huge signage that KFC was going to open a new branch at Causeway Bay in July so made a mental note about it.
The new branch is located on the corner and occupies two floors!!

The street level is Sweet Box which is grab and go desserts and drinks, the first floor is the ordering area with self service kiosks and bar seats while the second floor is the main dining area.

Both floors have an order screen that indicates the orders that are ready to pick up.

Attended the KFC Causeway Bay new store and Mooncake official launch.

At the new concept store, there are some exclusive options to give diners a different experience.
Grilled chicken combo:
The chicken is grilled to order and it was really comforting because it visually reminded me of nandos, although the taste is different.
The chicken tastes like the flava roast.

Oven glazed hot wings platter:
The wings platter is great for sharing.
My favourites were the garlic cheese and honey glazed hot wings while most people liked the sweet chili.

Chizza:
Previously this was only available takeaway but they were so popular that it is now offered for dine ins.
It was appetizing with the pineapple chunks.

Baked rice with chicken filet combo:
For carb lovers, this is another option as well as the rice buckets.
All of them were tasty but my favourite had to be the  grilled chicken because it was grilled to perfection.

As well as chicken, they have desserts!!!


For mid Autumns festival, I was over the moon with their new World's ever KFC moonlight bucket which lights up with LED.

There are two flavours:  Golden Lava custard and Spicy chicken and nuts mooncakes.
The Golden Lava custard is a popular mooncake in Hong Kong so it can't go wrong.


For the Spicy Chicken and nuts mooncake, think of it like chewy chicken biscuits gaaijaibeng with chicken floss and nuts inside just like the five nuts mooncake.


Overall I felt that the chicken mooncakes were quite traditional so it won't be a shock for the tastebuds.
