Sunday Again! The Weekly HSBI and DUO Token Giveaway Week 58!
This week flew on by, I can't believe it's already Sunday. On top of that Easter Sunday, wasn't it just St Patrick's Day? As they say time flies and stops for no man or woman.
Before we jump into today's post I want to support @bradleyarrow in his BBHO Power UP Day. I powered up all of the BBHO I had liquid.
I like mentioning BBHO as it's related to the BBH project, and every Sunday I do give out some of my personal BBH tokens to a couple lucky winners. BBHO and BBH both give a drip of tokens each Saturday depending on how many you hold. You can check the BBH page for more info or contact @bradleyarrow help!
I also give out some of my personal CCD tokens from the @cryptocompany each week. It's a great project run by @powerpaul and coming up on it's third anniversary. Congratulations! For more info please check the web site: https://cryptocompany.ceo
Onto today's giveaway, last week's entry question was about your favorite computer manufacturer. I really wasn't sure who would come out on top, but there was a clear consensus on this one!
Mac/Apple
The big winner this week was Mac! This American company has been around since 1984 although the innovative roots extend back into the late 1970's. Getting their big start after Steve Jobs entered the picture in 1981 and launching a commercial during the Super Bowl in 1984. They've been busy ever since. They did have a slow down in the early 1990's prompting the return of Steve Jobs, they eventually launched to iPhone changing the world. But their Mac computers are still a fan favorite and has a very loyal following. If only they weren't so expensive... Thanks to @bigorna1 , @elizabethbit , @silvertop , @vaynard86 , @geneeverett , @gwajnberg , @henruc , @silverd510 , @josediccus , @middle-earthling , @angeluxx , @ladymisa and @tortangkahoy !
Dell
This American company was founded in 1984 producing IBM clone computers but has grown to the third largest producer of personal computers worldwide. I've used Dell products before and always was happy with them, and most Dell fans tend to stick with them, so they must be doing something right. Thanks for this pick to @doombot75 , @ronnie10 , @servelle , @dewabrata , @gatet ,@hafiz34 and @tengolotodo .
Lenovo
Founded in Beijing, China in 1984 this company has grown to be one to the top electronics producers in the world. Acquiring IBM's personal computer business in 2005 set their course on growing their computer sector. They produce quality electronics at affordable prices, although I've never owned one people seem to like them and innovate new technologies. Thanks to @rainbowdash4l , @monsterbuster , @olaf.gui , @beelzael and @freed99 for this pick!
Hewlett Packard
Founded in 1939 producing electrical testing equipment they moved into the world of the personal computers by gradual progression. By the 1970's and into the 1980's they were leaders among computer technology. This now defunct company produced great computers and I even owned on at one point. The company split in 2015 the HP Inc and Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Even as spinoffs they produce great machines today.
Great pick by @mytechtrail , @okarun , @lanzjoseg and @stekene .
Commodore
@whywhy chose this computer company as his first computer was a Commodore. This now defunct company produced some of the earliest computers in the late 1970's and early 1980's including the Commodore 64. Internal conflicts led to top talent leaving and by 1994 they had filed for bankruptcy. Nothing lasts forever...
And for honorable mentions are Microsoft from @sylmarill , @cositav and @dominic1 . Also Acer by @florakese and @hatdogsensei , then Huawei by @lumpiadobo . Chromebook is a great choice from @melinda010100 ! And to round out we had MSI from @flummi97 and a Venezuelan government computer CANAIMA by @yusmelys .
Now moving onto the question for this week's entry.
What is your favorite Chinese Food dish?
The Giveaway
I will be giving out one prize of five (5) HSBI. Second and Third prizes will be 2 DUO tokens, the token I recently launched with @bulliontools and @bitcoinman . It offers those who stake sufficient tokens daily curation on quality posts, dividends, and a tipping bot. It also helps to onboard and retain new Hive members. At the end of the post there is a link to the white paper and where to purchase the tokens. Fourth prize is 100 BBH tokens. Fifth prize will be 250 CCD tokens. To participate you need a reputation level of at least 25 and bots cannot win. And please one entry per person to make it fair to everyone.
If you would like to be placed on a weekly reminder list just let me know and I'll make sure you get tagged each week.

How to Enter
Every week this will change. I'm looking for engagement rather than just saying "I am in". There is no need to upvote or re-blog, although if you choose to do so I would appreciate it. This week's question should be fun: What is your favorite Chinese Food dish?
HSBI

Fourth prize will be 100 BBH tokens. Fifth prize will be 250 CCD tokens. And since I am spinning the same wheel four times in a row it is theoretically possible for the same person to win all four prizes! Although I have yet to see it happen, maybe this week?

Happy Easter everyone!
Peking Duck just beats spare ribs!
You can't go wrong with Pecking Duck, a true classic. Maybe not for Easter, that's the chocolate eggs and spicy beans like you had yesterday!
!BBH
Hehe I must admit I like duck and not just at the Chinese!
Guess Lady Luck Favors Commodore.... lets see what she thinks about Peking Duck! !PIMP
The Commodore was the lucky golden ticket this week! Pecking Duck I think is by far the favorite I've heard so far, and it's pretty damn good!
!BBH
Well let me not bring up the Spanish Chinese restaurant closed two weeks ago selling street pigeons as Peking Duck

Chinese food so much delicious food to choose from!☺️
Potstickers have always been a favorite of mine, quick easy and delicious!🤗😊
I haven't had those in awhile, but they are really good! Now I want some! lol
!BBH
Maybe we need to run to the grocery store and pick some up as well!☺️
My favorite Chinese food (if done well) is Buddha’s Delight, also known as Luo Han Zhai in Mandarin and Lo Han Jai in Cantonese. There is a Dim Sum version dish called Monk's Food or Bean Curd Skin Roll, which is also vegan just like Buddha's Delight.

There’s a place by my girlfriends named Hunan Taste. It’s the best Chinese in Jersey. I get this dish every time. I think it’s called Dragon and Phoenix ironically. It’s beef and chicken in a garlic sauce with scallions, peppers, snap peas, carrot and mini corn. It’s fantastic
That sounds like an awesome place, best in Jersey can't be bad. I remember finding decent Chinese food in Philly was tough! Dragon and Phoenix sounds really good, what a great mix of flavors. I've always loved snap peas and the baby corn. It's nice that it's conveniently located for you too!
What’s really funny is the day after we went last time. They had the entire area closed off. Jennifer Lopez was shooting a film there the following day.
does fortune cookies count? :)
Jokes aside, I haven’t really explored Chinese food yet!
!PIMP
!PIZZA
Sure they count even though they were invented in San Francisco! lol You live in a country with so much great food there's almost no need to explore anything else... I need to plan a trip to Italy again, it's been a few years already.

Hello friend @thebighigg, greetings.
Congratulations to all participants, especially to the winners, thank you for the prize.
I am particularly happy with the typical dishes of my country, however, I must admit that one of my favorite Chinese food is him. Sweet and Sour Pork in second place the Chicken Gong Bao or Kung Pao and I can not leave aside Chop Suey, but for your question I quote again the sweet and sour pork.
!BBH
Sweet and sour pork is always really good, and chop suey as well. How are things going down there?
!BBH
I will answer very positively, although the reality regarding the quality of life is the opposite, but I do my best to solve many of the problems, especially the lack of financial liquidity, when you have children you do whatever it takes to keep them from going hungry, and being healthy, in this country is already a great achievement.
I am very pleased with your question,
thank you for asking.

The good and simple friend rice is always a good choice with any type of meat from the land or shrimps ;)

What is your favorite Chinese Food dish?
I don’t eat that stuff much these days. But as a kid sweet & sour chicken with that red sauce was my favorite plus greasy pork fried rice!
I don't either honestly, too fatty and unhealthy. But every now and again it's good! Sweet and sour is always a great pick, and nice greasy fried pork... Good stuff!
!PIMP
Thank you so much for the DUO tokens.
I haven't tried much Chinese cuisine, so I don't have a favorite dish, but if I had to choose, I'd say shrimp rice, which is similar to Mediterranean cuisine.
You're welcome! You've been on a lucky streak lately!
Shrimp is always really good, and that sounds like a great dish. There is so much good sea food where you live, I'm jealous!

I will narrow to two options, which are popular and easily accepted around the globe.
Xiao Long Bao

I haven't eaten at a Chinese restaurant in so many years. Between 20 to 30 years ago, they were very popular in my country. They have dropped in popularity and I haven't gone into one maybe in a decade. Furthermore, I knew the names of the dishes in Portuguese, and I can't even remember them. After a Google search, I'm picking sweet and sour pork because I remember enjoying the pork dish, although I'm not certain it was this one I used to get.
I don't think I ever saw a Chinese restaurant when I was in Portugal last. Then again, I was focused on eating good Portuguese food at at the time! I don't blame you for eating much Chinese when you have so many other great choices around to choose!

Hi, great that everyone wins, I'm allergic to Chinese food, I would only stick to rice alone.

There's not much I can eat here at the local Chifa (that's what they call chinese restaurants here). Fun fact: They make decent french fries there, which is rare in Ecuador. What I regularly eat is a tofu-soup with pok choi and fermented soy beans. No idea how it's called, but it's delicious and my daughter loves it, too, so everyone wins.
That sounds good! I agree on the fries in Ecuador, I haven't been there in years now but good fries were hard to find. Lots of good food though! Have things improved security wise recently? I know there have been some gang related issues as of late.

My town is very safe. Tourists are usually not the target, so it's quite safe - basically as always. The media likes to blow things out of proportion, and the president likes to maintain a state of emergency for his own power, so...
Noboa just got re-elected, we'll see if he can bring some change in this round.
