![]() When a pair of legs like this walks into your life, you're tempted to believe anything you're told. But 100-year-old eggs aren't. One hundred days is closer to the truth. Coated with lime, rolled in rice husks and buried, they're cooked by the lime and tinted by the mud until they look ancient. In Hong Kong, the most interesting place to find these eggs is a small lane in Western district known as Egg Street. Here you'll find chicken eggs, duck eggs, goose eggs and speckled quail eggs. It's even possible they have Easter eggs, but if they do, they hide them. August |
