Around the World: KFC Hong Kong - Foilicious Chicken

KFC Hong Kong has a recurring limited time menu item they serve called Foilicious Chicken. It's basically seasoned chicken that's baked in foil. For this fall, they're offering a new variety of Folicious Chicken baked with soy sauce and served with radishes (pickled it looks like).

A "meal set" i.e. combo meal is offered for $39.50 HK (~$5.09 US) and comes with a leg and thigh, radish, imitation shark fin soup, rice (can be substituted for mashed potatoes), and a soft drink. A red bean egg tart(!) can be added for an additional $5 HK (~$.65 US).

In prior promotions, KFC has offered a a garlic butter version:
And an herb version:
Here's a commercial for the latest version of Foilicious Chicken:


I'm not really sure what's going on in the commercial since I don't speak Cantonese, but it has something to do with a stuntman and his stuffed monkey toy from what I can make out. The chicken looks pretty good though, no?

Foilicious Chicken is also currently offered at KFC locations in Vietnam where it's called Big'n Juicy Foilicious Chicken.
