Fashionably Tall & Slim Shrimp Rolls
In Hong Kong, it is all about fashion.
What are so NOW at this very moment?
1. Rain boots: they are all over the city, in a myriad of colors (I am sooo out as I don't own a pair T_T)
2. Baseball caps, worn just barely touching your head, could be blown away by wind as strong as 0 mph (unless glued down by excessive hair products)
3. Long t-shirts, bearing English sentences with severe grammatical/typo errors, worn to reveal 1 shoulder (cos revealing both shoulders are just so wrong! It's all about asymmetry, baby!)
4. Super short shorts, preferably shorter than the long t-shirt
In terms of spring rolls (or egg rolls)...those stubby short ones or the triangle ones are so OUT! The food fashion police is seeing the long thin ones everywhere! Just like size -2 Eurasian supermodels taking over Hong Kong's hottest clubs, these slim rolls are taking over hottest snack joints. My wild guess is because they don't need as much fillings (LOL).
I might be out of style in terms of dressing myself appropriately for the rain, but I am determined to try for once, to be tall and slim. Or at least my shrimp rolls should be :p
