一切由我妻子懷孕開始。香港的雞蛋仔是她最喜愛的街頭小食之一，但當她的肚子一天比一天大，要她在香港炎熱、潮濕的夏天下排隊買這小食就開始變得就越來越困難。我嘗試過要給她一個驚喜而從她最喜歡的店鋪買了一份雞蛋仔給她，但無論我回家速度有多快，回到家的時候雞蛋仔已經不熱, 也失去了那外脆內軟的滋味。
我記得以前我媽媽會製作一批窩夫，然後冷藏在冰櫃裡以方便稍後食用。窩夫加熱後的味道就像新鮮烤出來一樣。突然，一個想法在我腦海中浮現，我可以將雞蛋仔冷藏並儲存起來，然後當我的妻子突然想吃的時候，我就可以在家裡即時加熱給她吃。
在2017年的秋天，經過幾個月的研究和在我最喜愛的香港雞蛋仔店做了一段時間兼職後，我終於完成了我的產品! 只要放入多士爐或焗爐簡單加熱，一份外脆內軟的雞蛋仔就準備好了。我知道我妻子吃的每一樣東西都會直接影響到我未出生的寶寶，所以我用了最天然、簡單的食材去製作我的產品。產品中更加沒有添加防腐劑，我甚至調配了我自己的無鋁膨鬆粉。
香港街食希望每位喜歡這傳統香港小食的人都能在家裡享用這個產品。
The idea for Hong Kong Street Eats Ltd. all started when my wife was pregnant. Hong Kong egg waffle is one of her favourite street food but when that belly started to grow, waiting in a long cue in the hot, humid Hong Kong weather was starting to become a difficult task.
I remember back in my school days my mom would make batches of waffles and freeze them for future meals. The waffles would taste just like fresh once they were reheated. A light bulb went off in my head, can I freeze the Hong Kong egg waffles so I can reheat them at home when my pregnant wife gets that sudden craving?
After a few months of experimenting and working some part-time shifts at my favourite Hong Kong egg waffle shop, I finally have my product. It has the right crispy shell and tender center texture after just a quick heat up in either an air fryer or an oven. The product was created by keeping in mind that whatever my wife eats, it will also go directly to our baby. The finest and most simple ingredients were selected for my recipe. No preservatives were added; I even blended my own mix of ALUMINUM FREE baking powder.
Hong Kong Street Eats was founded wishing this product can find its way to everyone who has a love one at home whom craves for the fresh taste of this traditional Hong Kong tasty treat.
