Hong Kong Egg Waffles – Hong Kong Favourite Street Snack

 

Hong Kong Egg Waffles or otherwise known as Egglet are some of the name given to this Hong Kong Famous Favourite Street Snack. The local name given to this street snack is 雞蛋仔. You can practically see Egglets stall set up in all corners of Hong Kong. I went round Hong Kong savouring the Egglets from various stall to find the best of the best.

North Point Egglets won the heart of many and have deemed to be the best in Hong Kong so how can I not try it.

 

Hong Kong Egg Waffles - North Point Egg Waffle - Wan Chai Outlet

 

I went to the outlet at Wan Chai, not the original stall at North Point.

Each bag has a serial number printed, not sure if you have spotted it.

 

 

As for the taste-wise, I didn’t find it fantastic. In fact, I think it is overly rated. I couldn’t taste the nice lightly eggy flavour at the first bite. Instead only sweet sweet taste. It was very disappointing.

I spotted an Egg Waffle shop with quite a crowd. I thought to myself, it must be very good so got one to try as well.

 

 

They have it in four flavours; original, chocolate, yam and seasame and coconut. I went for the original.

The egglets has a very lighty eggy hint. The egglet was a little on the wet side, especially on the inside of the egglet. It wasn’t completely cooked. The good part was, it wasn’t too sweet.

Hong Kong Egg Waffles - Uncle Tai O Charcoal Pancake

 

This egglet is cooked over charcoal fire, the traditional way of making. This is the best. It is crispy on its outer layer and soft and moist in the egglets. It is extra flavourful. It would be perfect if it is a little less sweet. By far, this egg waffle has the most correct elements in it.
