A milk custard bun made to resemble one of the popular Japanese “Kobitos” characters is squeezed during a display for the photographer at Dim Sum Icon restaurant in Hong Kong, China July 25, 2016. A dim sum restaurant in Hong Kong encourages diners to play with their food, and the result will either disgust or delight you. At Dim Sum Icon customers can squeeze a strange creature to poo or vomit on their plate before eating it. Hungry punters poke a hole into the mouth – or the rear – of the dim sum with a chopstick, squeeze it and watch the brown or white cream ooze out. The unique dim sums are made with a face to resemble Japanese Kobitos characters. But far from grossing people out, Ray Kuo, assistant manager at the restaurant, said the buns are one of the most popular items on the menu. “Actually we got a lot of good reviews from them. That is the main one they post on Facebook and Instagram”, Kuo said. The restaurant uses Japanese animations but switches the theme up every few months in addition to alternating menu items.
