Hong Kong Local Foods Poster

Hello!

Gosh, it feels like the last time I blogged was ages ago. Dear readers, I apologize. I recently moved into a new apartment, and have been spending the last few weeks working on absolutely nothing but my manuscript to meet my fast-approaching deadline. So please bear with me…there are plenty of new recipes coming soon!

I would like to take a few moments, however, to share this adorable food poster, found recently while searching for decorating ideas. This illustration of Hong Kong local eats would look great on the kitchen walls of a Cantonese food fan. Egg tarts! Pineapple buns! Egg waffles! Cart noodles with beef and cuttlefish balls! I never thought a cartoon could make me so hungry, or become so nostalgic.

What do you guys think? Anything missing? I might have replaced the instant noodles with a bowl of wonton noodle soup, but otherwise this looks pretty spot-on. The sanitized chopsticks up top is a nice touch.

Check this out at Society6, where you can apparently also order the graphic in t-shirt or sweatshirt form.

    Dezhen – Thanks! Hope your trip to Hong Kong was filled with delicious meals. And I still haven’t seen your house yet. Maybe someday soon, with this print hanging on the wall. :)

    Andy – Thanks to you too! I hope Texas is treating you well!

    cool print! reminds me of a piece that’s on display at the seattle art museum by a chinese artist, a watercolor painting of different chinese foods painted on a scroll.
