This colorful grilled cheese looks like it belongs in a My Little Pony show, but it’s actually a real treat that’s all the rage in Hong Kong. It’s called the Rainbow Sandwich and consists of two slices of bread four different types of cheese, flavorings and, obviously, a lot of food dye.
这种五颜六色的烤乳酪三明治看起来像是《彩虹小马》电影里的所属物;但事实上它已经成为香港的一种时尚,可以让我们大饱口福。它被称为彩虹三明治,由两片面包和四种不同风味的奶酪制成,显然里面也有很多食用染料。
The sandwich, a creation of Kala Toast, recently got its five minutes of fame after an Instagram user posted a photograph of the snack along with a brief review on his account. It got shared by his fans and eventually went viral after being picked up by major websites.
一位Instagram用户在他的账户上贴出了一张彩虹三明治的照片,并附上了简短的评论;在这之后,卡洛吐司的这款新品三明治就很快流行起来。他的帖子被粉丝们分享了,然后又被各大网站转载了,最终它就像病毒一般扩散开来。
According to the Hong Kong food blogger, the sandwich costs 42 HKD (a little over $5), and contains different flavors corresponding to the different colors – “lavender (blue), basil (green), tomato (red) and the yellow one is actually a combination of 4 different kinds of cheese (mozzarella, cheddar, emmental, and gruyere).”
根据香港美食博客的说法,这种三明治的售价为42港元(5美元多一点),包含的不同颜色对应着不同味道——“薰衣草的味道(蓝色)、罗勒的香味(绿色)、番茄的味道(红色)以及黄色对应的一种味道,其实就是4种不同的奶酪组合(莫萨里拉奶酪、切达干酪、艾曼塔尔干酪以及格鲁耶尔干酪)。”
“The toast was crispy but I reckon both the flavour of the lavender and tomato were subtle,” the blogger described. “The basil flavour was the most outstanding one comparatively but the cheese flavour was still not as strong as my expectation. It was also a bit oily in general. I would say the quality was rather average but we all cannot deny that it is photogenic.”
“这种吐司很酥脆,不过我认为薰衣草和番茄的味道很淡,”博主如是说。“比较而言,罗勒的香味最突出,但是奶酪的香味还是没有我期待的那么浓,而且通常也有点油腻。我想说,质量也就一般般,但是我们都不能否认它很上镜。”
So it may not be the tastiest grilled cheese sandwich in the world, but it’s definitely the most colorful and judging by its popularity in Hong Kong, that matters more.
因此它可能不会成为世界上最美味的烤芝士三明治。但从在香港的受欢迎程度来看,它一定是香港最富有特色的三明治了,相比而言,这更重要。
