Two friends who have launched their own bubble waffle dessert shop say the secret to their success will be their tried-and-tested recipe which dates back more than 60 years to the streets of Macau.
Commonly found at street food stalls across Macau and neighbouring Hong Kong, bubble waffles are different to other waffles in that they have a sweeter and eggier taste.
And there’s no better place to give them a try than at The Fing Fing Cloud on Bloom Street in Manchester’s Gay Village. Having just opened ahead of Manchester Pride, the shop is nestled next to The Goose and will be instantly recognisable from its bright blue bricked exterior.
But while the shop may be new, there are years of experience behind it. Try MEN Premium for FREE by clicking here for no ads, fun puzzles and brilliant new features. Leo Laitang, 28, was inspired to open the shop following his family’s decades-long history of making bubble waffles back in his home city of Macau, the former Portuguese colony formed of a peninsula and islands 40 miles from Hong Kong, off China's southern coast.
