I figure Hong Kong, but just about anyplace where the British got is
liable to have traces of the English tea spread, among its other
surviving European culinary influences, which include some cakes like
this, as well as a taste for stirring beaten eggs into sauces (although
they have since taken it into a different direction from the French),
calling jook congee, adapting puff-pastry into a dairy-free form, etc.
