Banned Hong Kong McDonald’s commercial.
April 30th, 2009 · No Comments
No idea why this commercial was banned.
Currently in Hong Kong, there they serve a double Filet O Fish.
Also, some McDonald’s are open 24 hours and offers free delivery. Food items are slightly priced higher. A cool McDonald’s scooter delivers the food to the door step.

Gordon Ramsey shows how to poach an egg.
Poaching an eggs is all about technique. Gently pouring a cracked egg into boiling water is key. I do not like putting the egg in iced water since this brings down the temperature of the egg.
