Last night I got to experience Hong Kong style barbeque. While Americans love to barbeque as much as anyone, Hong Kong people have a slightly different style. They have large open areas, often in parks, where you pay a fee which gives you access to a barbeque grill and all the food you can cook and eat. Each person gets a two-pronged fork and you load up each prong with food of your choice then grill away.

You go up to a counter where all the food is stored and take your pick, from a variety including hot dogs, sausages, chicken wings, beef, pork, chicken, sardines, fishballs, meatballs. There are even some non-meat items available such as sweet potatoes, corn, eggplant and bread. Anyway, in addition to eating, its a good way to socialize while sitting around the BBQ cooking your food.

I went with some of my friends from the Toastmasters group at Lingnan. Needless to say, a good time was had by all and a lot of food was consumed.
