McDonalds Hong Kong : Matcha cone

I am not a fan of Matcha but this is a popular flavour in Hong Kong.
McDonalds Hong Kong have launched this Matcha softserve.
Matcha cone, Matcha waffle cone, Matcha McFlurrys with genmai and Matcha sundae.
Some of them have a matcha Kitkat served with it.

Decided to try the Matcha Cone so that I could try the softserve and matcha wafer cone but it costs different at different branches.
The tea is also charged differently at different branches.

Overall, I wasn't impressed or surprised because it just tasted like the usual matcha flavour with a creaminess but the cone tasted a bit artificial.

I liked the packaging of this because it was a plastic can in a shape of a ball.
The combination of orange wine and cream sound good.

Check their website because there are more flavours and the packaging is really colourful!!

Matcha seafood flavor cup noodles

I was really excited with the Matcha seafood flavor cup noodles because Matcha is such a common flavour that is used everywhere.

The design was also attractive, there is so much detail on it from Mount Fuji, a drome with a face on it carrying a lantern, a cute fortune cat, a geisha, a train at the bottom and lots more.

At the back, it has the usual ingredients and there is a picture of a row of capsule machines.

When you peel back the lid, you will see the usual contents found in a seafood cup noodle such as egg bits, octopus slices, cabbage, carrots and spring onions.

The only thing different is that the broth powder is green and the noodles are green.

After adding hot water it was ready to eat but I couldn't quite taste the matcha.

Minions seafood flavor cup noodles

Got this from someone who went to Universal Studios in Japan.
Apparently they come in a box of four.

On the labelling it actually says MINI MENS and you will notice there is a banana after the word Noodle.

More photos of the cup noodle.

When you peel back the lid, there is a smell of banana which smells the same as the sweets Banana Chews.

There are bits of egg and Minions.
They basically taste the same as the usual Nissin Seafood noodles with an interesting aftertaste of those Banana chews. The noodles are very silky as well.

Overall, they were quite nice and the banana wasn't that off putting.

Twix Egg Easter edition

Discovered the TWIX EGG at the convenience store, so got one to try.

Evidently American because they call biscuits as Cookies.

Anyway I found it sweeter than the #Twix in Uk.

Indeed a miracle phone EVERMIRACLE S

I only write about gadgets when they are worth bragging out.
Recently my mobile phone died so I had to get a new one asap, so I got a Samsung J1 Mini thinking it would be good but it was slow and the battery goes fast.
In desperation I got another phone which turned out to be a miracle just like its name EVERMIRACLE S.
Before I got it, I googled this phone but all I got was French and Arabic because the makers EVERTEK are located in Tunisia.
Anyway, I decided to risk getting it and it turned out to be so good I found myself wanting to get another one for backup but sadly I had bought the last one :(

The phone specifications were clearly labelled on the factory screen protector which I have stuck to the blue back cover.

Without being wowed by the functions of the phone, I was already impressed with the contents in the box.

Back covers in three different colours and a clear hard cover protector:

Screen protector and contents in the box:

I have never bought a phone with all these included.
These are often slipped in free of charge if the dealer is nice.

Anyway, now to the phone.

Here were the functions which I thought were cool!!!
As I am not a professional tech review, I am just pointing out what I feel is cool so to be honest, I don't know if these features are part of android 5.0 or they are part of the functions from EVERTEK.

Fake call:
If you press the fake call button, it will countdown from 15 seconds and you can stop it within the 15 seconds, when it reaches zero, the phone will ring as if someone called you with a withheld number and you answer it like normal.

The funny thing is that if you do answer the answer the call, it will play a female voice in English saying "hi, can you send me the file as possible please!!"
It was a bit difficult filming from my other phone so you can only vaguely hear the voice.

(Hopefully I will explore that sometime by setting the language to French and see if it will speak French on the fake call.)
I am curious to know if there is a database of pre recorded languages so it will speak the relevant language according to the language setting on your phone.

Timer for face masks and boiling and egg:

Scheduled power on/off:

Reasonable macro focus:

Record conservations when there is a incoming call by pressing record before you pick up:

Face lock option:
I haven't tried this yet because I don't want to risk locking up my phone permanently.

Included cache cleaner:

Eco mode:
(not quite sure what this is, but I hope it can help block spams on some applications.)

Other lovely features are pre-installed Facebook and messenger, app to that reads office docs and a reasonable battery endurance which last for a day.
