Link's "Hundred Flavours" Survey Decodes Hongkongers' Taste DNA -- Tuen Mun Residents Have the Sweetest Tooth, While Hongkongers "Can Eat Bitter" but Shy Away from Spice

A new survey by Link has mapped out the culinary preferences of Hong Kong residents, drawing on responses from more than 6,000 participants. The "Hundred Flavours Survey" uncovered several unconventional insights into local eating habits, revealing that residents of Tuen Mun possess the city's sweetest tooth. Additionally, the findings show that while Hongkongers are willing to "eat bitter" flavours, they generally prefer to steer clear of spicy foods.[1][2]

The survey's release coincides with the launch of the "Savour the Tastes of Home in Hundred Ways" campaign, which brings the popular characters Mrs Mak and McDull to 24 Link shopping centres and fresh markets across the city. As part of the promotional event, shoppers can redeem exclusive themed gifts featuring the characters, with more than 10,000 premiums available for redemption.[1][2]

In addition to the themed merchandise, the campaign offers shoppers the opportunity to win various "Year-Round" grand prizes. Among the top rewards are a year's worth of dining vouchers from the popular local restaurant chain TamJai Yunnan Mixian, alongside a year's worth of home appliances provided by German Pool.[1][2]

Voters head to polls in US midterm primaries

Self-described ‘Maga warrior’ will face Jon Ossoff in November; polls close is Alabama, Oklahoma and Washington DC With 55% of the vote counted in Georgia, NBC News projects Mike Collins will defeat former football coach Derek Dooley to win the Republican primary for the US Senate. Collins currently leads by 10 points, 55% to 45%. The Associated Press has not yet made a call, but NBC’s analysis is based on the fact that Collins is doing better than Dooley in the votes cast on election day, which tend to favor candidates, like Collins, endorsed by Donald Trump , who hates mail-in ballots almost as much as he hates windmills. <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/live/2026/jun/16/midterm-primaries-election-updates-ge
