You see, in Hong Kong they sell these in some of the french-ish bakeries, but they call it "Wood Bread." A friend of mine and I would take special trips on the mini-buses just to go get a glorious wood bread, and the heavy thunk of it dropping onto my tray was always so satisfying. It was what all french breads before it had aspired to be, but never imagined possible! When I tried to google it, all you come across are travel journals of others foreigners talking about how when you go to Hong Kong, get the wood bread, because it's the only time they've ever seen it.

This also reminds me when I was in UK, they have something called Eggy Bread, just by soaking in whisked egg and fry in a pan, then sprinkle some sugar and serve. Boarding school stuff therefore not so sophisticated. Looks yummy, want to try it one day.
