Squid in my Sandwich

Lunch with friends

I'm back in Hong Kong for a few days preparing for a holiday in China. Excessive sightseeing with visiting friends has resulted in a much needed rest day spend in front of the TV watching footy. Dinner's a lamb roast, for afternoon tea there's a selection of cheese lined up and for lunch? Why squid sandwiches of course. My mate's passion for these tentacled critters meant that we decided to try this slightly abstract meal; something none of us had ever had before. Generous serves of fresh barbecued squid were squashed into crusty white rolls with lime mayonnaise and lettuce. The result was absolutely superb; a tasty sandwiches that went down perfectly with a few crisp beers.

Andrew,

This looks like a terrific snack, almost like a tapas plate from Barcelona!

Hey Edward

I'm finally getting a chance to clear the backlog of posts!

The squid sandwiches were certainly good, but I'm pretty biased as I lave squid. Not sure if it's the taste or the fact it's probably the most environmentally friendly of all seafood.

Cheers
Andrew

Hey 'Anonymous'

Yeah squid a pretty tasty treat. Just got to get it fresh, makes a huge difference when it's been frozen.
