Any exciting plans?
I don't really like mooncakes but maybe I just haven't had the good ones? I know that last year Haagen Dasz did some that were made of ice cream... yum.
I like the plain ones with the sticky lotus-paste and a duck yolk. But there is a version with misc nuts which is pretty awesome.
The plan is to stay at home and eat as many moon cakes as I can manage before my wife gags me and cuffs me to the bed. That reminds me, I need to stock up on alcohol.
For Mabon I'll be celebrating the harvest by dancing naked around a stone circle.
Oh shit.....just realised I'm in China & there are no Neolithic stone circles here. Suppose I'd better sit at home sipping my bottle of mead!
I exchange all my mooncakes for those with coconut paste inside. One single mooncake is enough to feed me for a day, those stuffs are really stuffy. But it's a nice pretext for wine.
Coconut paste inside? Never had that but sounds damn good. My fave flavor is red bean or purple sweet potato. don't like those salty egg yolk ones. Not so crazy about ice cream "mooncakes" when they're basically just icecream sandwhiches, I like the crossover ones that are sorta like ice cream and regular mooncake though.
I like the orange flavored ones and the nut fillings.
The ice cream ones are good too but really pricy for some reason.
Mooncakes ones of those things if it was out all year I'd get tired of it really quick, but cause its seasonal I like them!
I do not eat mooncake during the festival even though I am Chinese.Just not a big fan of mookcake.I usually ate good dinner instead.lol

I love tea flavoured mooncakes. Some of them are delicious! The other mooncakes I usually do not like ...
how can someone hates duck yolk flavour? It's classic.
I probably hang out at night and get drunk and enjoy the full moon on street...ha
as long as there is no meat or beans or any other weird flavors
