I went to visit some older family friends recently and brought some fruits which included some figs. I was told that figs aren't commonly eaten in HK but I see them quite often. Obviously the more common meats used are chicken, pork, fish, seafood, and to a lesser extent beef. Brocolli (the western kind) isn't commonly found but we have various chois and gai lan.

What other western items do you think are less common in HK?

Beef sausages.

You can get pork sausages, chicken sausages, cheese sausages, dog sausages (ok, maybe you have to go to Shenzhen for that)... but no dead cow sausages. No idea why.
