Golden Series softserve

The salted Egg trend is everywhere and now KFC has it too with Salted egg yolk sauce on softserve and salted egg yolk chicken wings.
I tried this a few weeks ago at the Kwun Tong branch because it is only served at designated branches.
I was glad there was a self service kiosk so I didn't have to queue but stupidly it wasn't on the menu so I had to waste time queueing.


The softserve costs $16 but didn't get much sauce.

The egg yolk sauce was thick and very starchy so I loved it.
It tasted like the custard bun filling you get in Chinese steamed buns so it was really nice because some custard buns have salted egg yolk filling which tastes just the same with sweet and savoury flavours going on at the same time,
Unfortunately, the softserve was too sweet and overpowered the salted egg yolk sauce.
It would be good if they gave you more sauce or made the softserve not so sweet.

[Review 6987] KFC SweetBox @ 肯德基家鄉雞 (KFC) Kentucky Fried Chicken

Rarely do I eat KFC in Hong Kong because they just suck.
Firstly the chicken coating is a totally different recipe, secondly the chickens are anorexic and thirdly the queues and wait for food is not fast at all.
Anyway as I was in TKO, I passed by and discovered the new Sweet Box which was empty!!

They had self service kiosks which was brilliant, now you can skip the lines but I wonder how long the wait would be for them to prepare your order.

On the regular menu, they had pineapple soda.

The price of one piece of chicken!


Sweet Box menu:


It was mainly softserve, sundaes, floats, frappes, tea floats and drinks which is so different to the sweet selection in UK where you get delicious shakes like Krushems and softserve Kreme Balls.
Ordered the grapefruit float and the Earl Grey Tea float.
Strangely they asked what syrup I wanted for my Earl Grey as I was expecting plain Earl Grey.
Luckily it was a mistake or it would be weird and the English and Chinese menu do not seem to be consistent as it says red tea in Chinese but Earl Grey in English.
Anyway, the grapefruit soda was pretty good as it was a concoction of grapefruit syrup and carbonated water.

The only complaint is that there is not much drink in the cup as I only saw her pour half a can into the cup which shows how much ice is in the drink.

Earl Grey Float:

Truffle is getting cheap these days that you can now get scrambled eggs with truffle for breakfast.
Decided to try the dark chocolate soft-serve as everybody was saying how good it was.
The chocolate soft-serve was strong and not too sweet but not the chocolate flavour that I was looking for as I felt that the cocoa taste was too powdery.

Fried [Hainan Style chicken] at KFC
2018-06-04  79 瀏覽
In Hong Kong, KFC has a totally different recipe for the chicken coating so I rarely get KFC unless the flavour is interesting.
The Fried [Hainan Style chicken] meal comes with waffle fries and not chips as served in UK which is another thing I don't like.

Anyway, the new Fried [Hainan Style chicken] captivated me because I love Scallion Oil.

The set comes with rice and a drink and you can also order two extra Hainan Style chicken wings.
Unfortunately, they gave me the wrong ones because they were spicy and tasted totally different from the star of the show.

As I said, the chicken wings were just spicy.
The star of the show was really tasty and you could taste spring onions in the coating.
The sauce that comes with this is chili and lime which really matches the chicken and gives a slight Thai kick to it.


It was good that it came with rice because I am not fond of Waffle fries.


 Overall, the Fried [Hainan Style chicken] was impressive but not impressive because the chicken wings given were the wrong ones.

KFC sausage egg muffin

I rarely get a chance for breakfast but as I was early and they were still serving breakfast I ordered the sausage egg muffin.
Sadly, I didn't know you could just get the muffin a la carte so I got the drink as well which I don't really drink.

The sausage egg muffin was quite good because the sausage patty was juicy and not as salty as the ones at McDonalds but it lacks the herbs and spices.
The MSG is not that strong which makes it slightly better than McDs.

I don't really bother with the fried chicken in HK because the coating is just different from the original.Anyway, decided to try the pork rice which comes with an onsen egg.
The pork bolognese was really watery like diarrhea however it tasted quite nice while being a little bit too spicy and salty.
The seaweed fish nuggets were rather disappointing because it was mostly air in the middle and the fish was dry and chewy.

Got the $5 softserve which was not very memorable.
It wasn't creamy or too sweet but slightly icy.
The milkiness was as strong as advertised but not delicious and for $5 you actually get quite a bit of softserve in that cone but sadly it just didn't taste good.
The softserve was palatable but not exciting.
The minced meat with rice and onsen egg was interesting though.

KFC serves chicken obviously but at Hong Kong's KFC they have three exclusive dishes that are totally different from the rest of the world!
They have curry with rice, beef rice and shabu shabu. I haven't been to Japan but they could possibly serve it as well because it is Japanese inspired.

Curry with rice:

Beef Rice:

Shabu shabu:
This was launched in September but the weather was too hot then to eat shabu shabu.


Recently, I went there specifically to try the shabu shabu and beef rice.

To my utter surprise I was stopped for taking photos which rarely happens in my blogging experience, not once was I even stopped in UK.

Maybe KFC HK is worried it might be laughed at by other international KFC branches!!

The shabu shabu comes with rice but I upgraded it to DOLLS instant noodles.


There is extra broth if you need it.

The ingredients were fresh and the burner kept burning until we finished.



As for the beef rice, it comes in a nice paper box with the beef separated in a plastic tray.


The beef was in this sweet onion gravy which tasted like oyster sauce.

Compared to Yoshinoya (a chain in Hong Kong that specializes in beef bowls), the beef was not as beefy but the presentation was neater.
