Swiss Wing () is the name given to a kind of sweet soy sauce-flavored chicken wings served in some restaurants in Hong Kong. It is marinated in sauce made up of soy sauce, sugar, Chinese wine, and spices.〔 〕 Despite the name "Swiss," it is unrelated to Switzerland. Instead, it is believed to have originated in either Hong Kong or Guangzhou.〔CNN Go (40 Hong Kong foods we can't live without ) 13 July 2011. Retrieved 2011-10-09〕 There are no concrete answers as to the source or the name of the dish. One story goes that a Westerner came across the dish "sweetened soya sauce chicken wings" in a restaurant, and asked a Chinese waiter what that was. The waiter, who did not speak perfect English, introduced the dish as Sweet Wing. The customer misinterpreted ''sweet'' as ''Swiss'', and the name was used ever since. However, this story may be a mere urban legend. Some claim that the dish was invented by a local restaurant, the Tai Ping Koon (太平館) (:zh:太平館餐廳) . It is a common practice in Hong Kong restaurants to name a new dish after a place, which may or may not have any connection with the dish itself at all. Swiss Wing is also featured in the TVB cooking variety series So Good. ==See also== *Soy sauce *Soy sauce chicken *Buffalo wing * List of chicken dishes 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Swiss Wing」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
