1. Street snacks in Hong Kong:
The development of street snacks in Hong Kong has a long history. Since the 9th century, there have been street stalls in Hong Kong, all of which appeared to make a living and take care of the diet of the lower class. As for street food stalls, they developed most vigorously in the 1951s and early 1961s.
The snacks sold are various and cheap, so they are very popular. Later, due to health problems, they were gradually expelled by the government, so these roadside stalls began to enter the shops to maintain their business. Although they no longer "push carts" on the roadside, the food they sold was still snacks sold on the street, so they were very popular.
There are many kinds of street snacks in Hong Kong, such as eggs, wings with bowls, stinky tofu, lettuce and fish soup, fish balls, glutinous rice cakes, beef offal, checkered cakes, fried squid whiskers, steamed dumplings, fried three treasures and so on. Most of them are contained in paper bags or styrofoam boxes, but eaten with bamboo sticks or plastic spoons, that is, they are ready to eat, without being skewered or fried. According to a report in Apple Daily on August 8, 2112, Hong Kong people eat 55 tons of fish balls every day, which is an amazing number, which shows Hong Kong people's love for street snacks.
From the characteristics and development of street snacks in Hong Kong, we can see the unique food culture characteristics of Hong Kong people. In addition to the fast pace of life and fast work, Hong Kong people can also show their fast-paced mentality in food. Not only do they have to eat fast, but even those who make food must be fast to survive in society. Street snacks just show this feature.
Second, historical development:
Street snacks first appeared at street stalls. The development of street stalls has a long history. As early as the 1981s, street stalls appeared, and they did business day and night. At that time, there were also big-name stalls, which were also put up for sale on the street. They had a government license and had a place larger than hawkers, which was similar to hawkers.
Later, "food street" began to appear. The so-called "food street" means that some cooked food vendors gathered in one place to sell food to the lower class, and the earliest "food street" was located at the junction of Stanley Street and Graham Street in Central.
There are several cooked food vendors selling breakfast, lunch and evening meals, snack and sweet soup. In 1951s and 1961s, a large number of small vendors started to sell street snacks. In the 1971s, the government began to curb street stalls blocking the street in order to rectify the city appearance and re-plan the city. After the reunification in 1997, the government cracked down on these unlicensed hawkers because of the health problems caused by street food, which led to a sudden drop in the number of street hawkers. In recent years, the number of street hawkers has fallen sharply, but street snacks are no longer limited to "streets".
