Fancy trying something a little more exotic than usual? If you’re game and in Hong Kong, you should definitely head to the Ser Wong Fun restaurant. Famous for specializing in snake meat (yes, you read that right – snake!), this long-standing, quintessentially Hong Kong establishment has been patronized even by British governors (pre-1997). And just so you know, “Ser Wong” is Cantonese for “snake king”. Of course if you bothered to ask them, cooked snakes don’t feel particularly “royal” about themselves.

Be very careful, the snake meat contains a kind of worm that cannot be killed under high heat. It stayed beneath your skin and you will feel itchy most of the time. Worst case is your skin will start to scale patchely. Be careful.
