NZ Pizza

I guess if you are in New Zealand, “Hell” pizza is not that amusing. But its funny to me. They claim to make the “Best Damned Pizza”.

And Pizza Hut:

Sharing, shearing, get it?

Kiwiburger

All I’ve done since I got to New Zealand is work. I’ve barely had time to get out and see any of Auckland. However, this morning I got up early and went downtown before work. I got to experience a real taste of Kiwi culture. The Kiwiburger! A McDonalds hamburger with a poached egg and a slice of beet. Sounds awful, but egg yolks are actually pretty good on a hamburger. Hopefully when the show is over I can see some actual real NZ culture.

Tired. More later.

Hong Kong Snacks

Hong Kong exclusive, Shark Fin flavored crackers. Do they taste like real shark fin? I don’t know, we were too cheap to pay the US$40 a bowl to try the real thing. So what do they taste like? Artificial flavoring chemicals.

Bambi caramels!

Peking Duck flavored chips. Also weird and chemical tasting.

Lemon Ritz. Pretty good. Sort of like a lemon tart. We didn’t get to try the custard Ritz.

Crispy M&M’s , mint and cherry. Both are like rice crispies with flavored chocolate, also pretty good.

Warner Brothers Studio Store Lives!

How odd. I thought all these stores were shut down years ago. Imagine my surprise as I walked through the streets of Macau and saw this:

After some googling, apparently a company in Macau has a license to run these stores. The store is very small, but I did find the postacrds below. I guess images of your historic areas with Looney Tunes characters on it are what people want?
