Via coincidence, I was about to cook a Portuguese-Porto "Francesinha" since I can't visit Macau 🇲🇴 🇵🇹 to eat one, but I suddenly saw it pop up on @where_is_alfie 's IG Story 👀. It turns out【Duck & Waffle Hong Kong 🦆】is selling one briefly for their 1st Anniversary Celebration !

The "Francesinha" HKD$250 by design, is a boosted up concept between a French Croque Monsieur x Portuguese Bife a Casa/Prego Steak Sandwich which suits the locals preference for Steak & Eggs, known as one of the Best Sandwiches in the World 🌍🤔 - this one is a loyal rendition since it was created by ex-executive Chef Daniel Barbosa who was born near Porto:
•Toasted White Bread
•Portuguese Linguiça sausage 🌶
•Additional White Sausage for HK recipe
•Grilled Beef Steak
•Fried Duck Egg 🦆🥚
•Gruyere Cheese
•Hot Beer based sauce

Usually the sauce is proprietary and lends a soul to the final Character..! Reminds me also of a Welsh Rarebit on steroids. So overjoyed to discover this on the Duck & Waffle HK celebratory menu, since this is usually on the London late night menu! I think I ordered it on last day it's served here, but wished they can sustain it longer & ideally serve with some fries on the side! 😬😝
